Good architecture
Siedziby obu Gildii wznoszą się w narożniku Placu Liwskiego. Oba gmachy zbudowane zostały w średniowieczu i oba zostały w XIX wieku przebudowane w stylu neogotyckim. Charakterystycznym elementem siedziby Małej Gildii jest ozdobna, czterokondygnacyjna wieża, a także usytuowana w narożniku, strzelista wieżyczka. Jeśli chodzi o siedzibę Wielkiej Gildii, to zachowała ona znacznie więcej oryginalnych elementów i pomieszczeń. Dziś w dawnym budynku Małej Gildii znajduje się centrum kulturalne, a w gmachu Wielkiej Gildii ma swoją siedzibę Łotewska Narodowa Orkiestra Symfoniczna. Pierwsza Gildia Ducha Świętego ( stowarzyszenie kupców i rzemieślników), powstała w Rydze w 1252 roku. Wraz z rozwojem miasta, które od 1282 roku należało do Ligi Hanzeatyckiej, zaszła potrzeba rozdzielenia interesów tych dwóch najbardziej wpływowych grup zawodowych, co też ostatecznie nastąpiło w 1354 roku. W efekcie podziału Gildii Ducha Świętego powstała Mała Gildia św. Jana, skupiająca rzemieślników i Wielka Gildia Matki Boskiej, zrzeszająca kupców.
