Latvian Heritage

Visitors can try their hand at sawing wood with an old two-man saw, removing bark from a log, installing pins, manufacturing the first “crown” for a log building, or even “celebrating the ridgepole festival.” At the conclusion of the tour, visitors will enjoy tea for strength and have a meal under the open sky or in the romantic Campfire Hut. Wooden souvenirs are available, and furniture can be commissioned.
