Medieval Castle

The Towers of Turaida Castle are noticable from afar and they have been captivating visitors already since the 19th century. The building of the Castle was started in 1214 on the site where initially was situated wooden castle of Livs. The Castle was expanded until the middle of the 16th century and it was a significant fortification of Riga Archbishopric. In the further centuries the swords for the Castle were crossed by Polish, Swedish and Russian troops. Castle as a fortress existed until destructive fire in 1776. The restoration was started in the 50-ies of the last century. Turaida Castle is one of the archeologically most investigated medieval monuments in the Baltic States. New expositions have been installed in all Castle Buildings and their development is still in process. A wide narrative is being prepared about Middle Ages in Latvia where the central focus is Castle as the main source of information and bearer of medieval atmosphere.
