When attending events at Riga Castle, there may be an unexpectedly large number of visitors, which can cause crowding in the narrowest areas of the castle and cause inconvenience.
The museum offers school lessons also in easy language – this and other special needs must be mentioned when applying for the service.
Taking photographs and filming is possible during museum events at Riga Castle. If you object to being photographed and filmed, we kindly ask to notify about it the museum Information Center before the event.
If you have special access requirements or have any questions, please contact us.
