Old Riga. History and legends of the 819-year-old beauty

Dear guests of Riga!

I invite you to a tour of Old Riga. During a 2-hour walk you will hear a story about the history of the capital of Latvia, many legends about our city.

• Walk along the main cinematic street of the Old Town, where London and Bern meet, Max Otto von Stirlitz and Sherlock Holmes, where episodes of the films “17 Moments of Spring” and “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson” were filmed; learn which of the Soviet films this beautiful street became one of the streets of the Kingdom of Carlicia:
• make a wish at the monument to the Bremen musicians, get acquainted with many architectural monuments:
• Church of St. Peter (with an observation deck at an altitude of 72 m),
• The Cathedral of the Virgin Mary, which is used to be called Domsky, is one of the oldest sacred buildings of the Middle Ages in the Baltic States.
• Church of St. John with stone masks of monks walled up in its walls;
• Town Hall Square and striking with its magnificent finishing house of Blackheads,
• statue of Roland,
• town hall
• Courtyard of the Convention and the oldest stone building of Riga,
• Large and Small Guilds, uniting merchants and artisans of Riga,
• Powder Tower and Yekab Barracks,
• 3 brothers
• A house with black cats and more.

You will not leave indifferent cockerels on Riga temples, reminding of humility, loyalty and repentance; playful cats with tails upturned on the roofs of houses; a quick forty-witch from the legend of the impregnable beauty Riga.
