LTStraipsnio objektas – Šilutės dvaro komplekso atgaivinimo projektas ir jo likimas. Straipsnio tikslas – pristatyti iki šiol neįgyvendintą Šilutės dvaro prikėlimo projektą, išanalizuoti nesėkmingų bandymų jį įgyvendinti priežastis. Naudoti metodai – istorinių šaltinių, spaudos ir su Šilutės dvaro atgaivinimu susijusios faktinės bei dokumentinės medžiagos analizė. Išvados: 1999 m. parengtas Šilutės dvaro komplekso renovavimo ir modernaus Mažosios Lietuvos regioninio kultūros centro jame įkūrimo projektas nebuvo įgyvendintas.

ENThe Šilutė’s estate complex is the best survived example in the Klaipėda’s land context. At the end of the last century it was decided to found The Cultural Center of the Little Lithuania in it. The decision was made because of Hugo Scheu, who was the last owner of Šilute’s esate, special deserts to Šilutė town and Lithuanian culture. There were much of enthusiasm and initiatives at the beginning – reviving of the estate heritage to a new life equaled the steps of desovietization. In 1990 the restoration of the central building of the estate commenced. The Šilutė museum had to be found in it. The society expected for a quick reviving of the estate's complex, but the result is small untill now : only the fasade of the central building is renewed, the inside is in the emergency state; only the wing of the central building is totally restored, where the administration of the museum and some parts of the funds have settled; also an exwoodshed was restored where the wood and graphic studio was established. All the other buildings of the estate complex are left in the emergency state. The primary enthusiasm connected with the reviving of the estate overturned to the total pessimism of Šilutė community. The causes of the failure are insufficient attention of the state to the cultural heritage, strategical mistakes by Šilutė municipality placing the applications for the European Union Structural funds. The prepared Šilutė estate reviving conception is still valid. There is a hope, that this project has perspectives and real possibilities to get the EU support from the funds of 2007–2013 year financial period. But it is clear that the prepared technical projects of the estate reviving will be out-of-date by then. The local gouvernement talks louder and louder about the sale of the buildings of the estate.
