Castle in Riga: photos, reviews

About

Sieges, destruction, and reconstructions-it seems as if Riga Castle has survived all the calamities that can occur in the capital. Officially, the castle serves as the residence of the President of Latvia, but due to yet another fire, restoration work is underway, which does not hinder tourist tours in the slightest.

Riga Castle, like any other medieval architectural monument, is full of mysteries and riddles. At night, the ghost of a knight is often seen here, which only fuels the interest of the city's guests in the building. The castle houses a museum of foreign art, a historical Latvian museum, and its literary "brother," named after the art critic and historian Rainis.
