The park was designed, and the trees were planted by Skrīveri Manor owner Maximilian Sivers (1857 – 1919).
Every year the arboretum is visited by dendrologist delegations from various European countries, because the arboretum is home to around 300 tree and shrub species and subspecies; before World War I, 679 tree and shrub species cold be found in the arboretum.
The arboretum offers an opportunity to see the traditional scenery found in other countries, without leaving Latvia. The arboretum is a popular destination for one-day family or school trips, or it may be a good place to visit on a longer trip.
