The Bīriņi Castle complex is part of Latvia’s national architectural heritage. The Neo-Gothic main castle building is surrounded by a picturesque park and buildings including the stables and the water tower, which showcase the country’s industrial heritage. The castle hotel is a very popular venue for wedding celebrations. The cranberry plantation in Laugas swamp at Gundegas Farm was started in 1989 as a research farm. Cranberries are well known for their refreshing taste and medicinal qualities. They are used both for culinary purposes and in traditional medicine. Today six types of cranberries are grown in Latvia. The cranberry plantation offers the opportunity for guests to ‘pick-your-own’ during the harvest in September. |

Vom 6. – 8. Jh. befand sich an der Stelle der heutigen Stadt Grobiņa die größte in den baltischen Ländern bekannte skandinavische Händler- und Soldatenkolonie. Die Einwanderer aus Gotland und Schweden hatten ihre Inlandsiedlung auf einem Hügel eingerichtet, der sich am Ufer des damals schiffbaren Flusses Ālande befand. Es wird angenommen, dass sich genau hier die in den Chroniken aus dem 9. Jh. erwähnte Burg der Kuren – Seeburg – befand. Nach dem Bau der Ordensburg im 13. Jh. wurde Grobiņa zu einem Kreiszentrum. Die älteste Bebauung der Stadt hat sich um die Lielā Straße, sowie um die Saules Straße und Parka Straße herausgebildet. |

Торговый канал, протяженностью неполных 3 км, в советское время являлся закрытой зоной со статусом режима приграничного района. Лиепайский порт был известен еще в XIV столетии. В конце XVII века здесь выкопали канал, который соединил море с Лиепайским озером - теперешний Торговый канал. Заканчивается он Зимним портом и двумя молами, из которых Южный мол служит излюбленным местом для прогулок и рыбалки. В южной части Торгового канала тянется Променад, на котором установлены Янтарные часы. |
