Riga Castle opens its gates to visitors

Riga Castle opens its gates to visitors

The museum reopens in the Riga Castle, where it was housed since 1920. However, the museum will have only one part of the restored premises of the Riga Castle – about one third of the total planned area of the museum’s premises – as the rest of the premises are currently not planned to be repaired. Thus, the museum will be able to show the wealth of its collection to visitors in a much more limited amount than it would like.

Until the end of 2024, in the renovated premises of the Riga Castle, the museum will first offer to explore the renovated premises, as well as a separate program of events for different audiences, but on 11 and 18 November, as well as during Christmas, larger events are planned. The public will be informed about these plans in more detail in autumn.

The museum is open from Wedneday to Sunday: on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10.00 to 18.00, on Fridays from 10.00 to 20.00, on Sundays and Saturdays from 10.00 to 17.00.

Entrance tickets: adults – 5,00 EUR, students, pensioners – 3,00 EUR, pupils – 2,00 EUR, family ticket (1 adult un 1-2 children) – 6,00 EUR, family ticket (2 adults un 1-2 children) – 11,00 EUR.
