Boutique Hotel Altenburg mājo vairāk nekā divus gadsimtus senā koka ēkā, kas ir viena no ievērojamākajām Talsu vecpilsētas arhitektūras pērlēm. Kādreiz gandrīz pamesta un nolaista, šī ēka piedzīvojusi rūpīgu restaurāciju, atgūstot savu šarmu un vēsturisko stāju.

Viesnīcas interjers ir harmonisks līdzsvars starp wabi-sabi pieeju, rustikālu eleganci un dabiskām faktūrām — te dominē koks, akmens un lins. Katrā telpas detaļā jūtama pārdomāta izvēle un cilvēciska piesaiste. Dizaina koncepciju radījis Roalds Cinis, bet apdari papildina vietējo meistaru roku darbs: “Ciparnīcas” keramikas trauki, darināti pledi un Latvijas tējas.

Viesiem piedāvāti seši divvietīgi numuri, koplietošanas virtuve un mājīgs salons, kā arī klusas lasīšanas vietas ar grāmatām un mazs vīna pagrabiņš. Boutique Hotel Altenburg atspoguļo lēnās dzīves filozofiju — tā ir vieta nesteidzīgai atpūtai, klusumam un pievēršanās sev.

This may be an ancient cult object, and today it is a little hill in the dunes that is a bit larger than other local hills.  It is said that a church once sank into the dune.  This tale suggests that there was a Christian or pagan prayer place here at one time. (Source: Roja TIC)

The mansion of the Gārsene Estate is built in the Neo-Gothic style, and its design was based on a villa in Germany. The building was erected between 1856 and 1860, and from then until 1920, the baronial dynasty of the Budbergs and Beningshausens owned it. The castle was expanded with another wing in 1885. Between 1939 and 1940, the building was rebuilt to become a school, and President Kārlis Ulmanis attended its opening on June 2, 1940, when he was taking his last official trip as the country’s president. There are other buildings and a park on the estate. The mansion today is home to the Gārsene Elementary School, but there is also an exhibition featuring the baronial dynasty, the history of the school, and the town itself. Just wait until you see the pot-bellied stoves! Outside the mansion are the Gārsene nature trails – the cultural and historical trail, the baronial strolling trail, etc. Before setting off, buy a ticket at the mansion. In front of the mansion is a memorial stone to Professor Pēteris Kulitāns (1878-1951), who was an agro-chemist.

Information about this stream dates back to the mid-18th century, but people used it much earlier than that.  People donated money to the stream after washing or drinking the water.  During the first half of the 19th century, the baron of Tirza and the local church waged a battle against pagan traditions, though not very successfully.  There is now a canopy over the stream, and people still drink its water.

The Livonian Order built a fortified castle on the largest island in Lake Alūksne – Marijas Island (Pilssala Island) in 1342.  It was linked to the land by a 120 m drawbridge.  The castle had several forecastles, and it was regularly modernised and expanded until the end of the 17th century.  It was one of the largest Livonian Order Castles, with similar ones found in Vastelina and Izborsk.  Defensive barriers were put up around the castle, which survived until the Great Northern War.  Its central part was blown up by the defeated Swedish military in 1702, after which Russians completely sacked it.  All that is left are the castle ruins on the island, which is now linked to Alūksne and Temple Hill by two wooden bridges.  An open-air stage alongside the castle ruins is used for various public events.
