Виргская господская усадьба как лен была передана вассалу Ливонского ордена Конраду Нолду. До наших дней сохранился дворец господской усадьбы «Виргас», в котором с 1935 года до наших дней разместилась школа. Во дворце находятся три двери, украшенные красивой резьбой по дереву, с гербами рода Нолдов и портреты баронов. В бывшей клети господской усадьбы в 1983 г. обустроен Дом традиций - теперь Дом культуры. Господскую усадьбу окружает парк, в котором находится место могилы барона Нолда и баронессы с памятником. В центре Вирги установлен сапог Карла XII с двумя направленными друг от друга пушками и ядрами, которые вещают о временах Северной войны, когда в Вирге в 1701 г. был лагерь шведского войска.

Vēstures avotos pirmoreiz minēta 1483. g. Pilsētas uzplaukums bija vērojams pēc dzelzceļa uzbūvēšanas 19. gs. beigās, kad barons Korfs sadalīja un iznomāja apbūvei muižas zemi. Pilsētas tiesības Priekule ieguva 1928. g. Pilsēta smagi cieta 2. pasaules kara pēdējos mēnešos, - t.s. Kurzemes katla laikā, kuru laikā tika sagrautas 410 no 450 ēkām. Mūsdienās tā ir neliela pilsētiņa ar mazstāvu apbūvi un nesteidzīgu dzīves ritmu.

Before its flooding, the canyon of the Daugava River between Pļaviņas and Koknese was one of the most outstanding and beautiful parts of the Baltic terrain, and Oliņkalns hill was one of the largest castle hills in Latvia.  The Andrejs cliff as up to 20 metres high, and it was part of the Daugava canyon.  Before the area was flooded because of the construction of the Pļaviņas hydroelectric power plant, there were rapids near the hill that made it hard for rafters to sail down the river.  Today it is a small island in the reservoir of the plant (it can be seen from the side of the Rīga-Daugavpils highway (A6) opposite Stukmaņi).  It is separated from the shore by 300 metres of river, under which the Dūņas valley is now resting.  A small part of the ramparts of the castle hill can still be seen on the island along with the ruins of an open-air stage and a few metres of the dolomite cliff that have remained above water.  It is thought that the Alene castle was on the hill in the 13th century.  Latvian mountain climbers installed a memorial stone in 1998 opposite Oliņkalns hill.

Nach Angaben befand sich die Kirche an dieser Stelle schon im 17. Jahrhundert. Die jetzige Kirche wurde von 1792 bis 1794 gebaut. Der Autor des Projektes eines kuppelförmigen Gebäudes war Christoph Haberland, der Hauptbaumeister von Riga. Eine Form der Kuppel sichert eine gute Akustik in den Innenräumen. Der Altar ist gegenüber der Eingangstür eingerichtet. Zwischen den Kolonnen des Gebäudes befindet sich ein Altarbild, das Christus und St. Peter in aufgewühltem Meer darstellt. Zu den bedeutenden Gegenständen der Innenausstattung gehören Weinbecher, Kerzenträger aus den 18 – 19 Jahrhunderten u.a. 2014 wurde das Gebäude restauriert. Südlich von der Kirche befindet sich der Friedhof von Katlakalns, auf dem ein berühmter deutsch-baltischer Publizist und Schriftsteller Garlieb Merkel (1769 – 1850) bestattet wurde, der eine große Rolle in der Aufhebung der Leibeigenschaft im Baltikum spielte.
