About

The Mitava Palace can confidently be called the most grandiose Baroque architectural structure in the entire Baltic region. Its creation was significantly influenced by the "golden" hands of the architect Rastrelli himself, highlighting the importance of changes in Latvia.

The southeast of the Mitava marvel is occupied by the sarcophagi of the Courland dukes, which are considered a cultural treasure. Next to them, in the exhibition halls, there is a large display of costumes from past eras, as well as a precise list of individuals buried in the palace. Today, the Mitava Palace has become a haven for the Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies, blending its extraordinary luxury with the demanding strictness of science.
