It is said that after a shipwreck near Cape Kolka, a rescued Danish tradesman financed the building of a church in Kolka in thanks for his rescue. There are several churches in Kolka which have changed their location. The stone worship house that can be seen today has foundations that were laid by the former owner of the Dundaga Estate, Karl Ludwig Ferdinant von der Osten-Zaken. The church was built at or near the site of an old wooden church which suffered much damage during the Crimean War. The work on the church was begun by builder Oto Zīverts in 1885 on the basis of a design by the architect T. Zeiler. During the Soviet era, the church was vandalised, and a warehouse was installed there. It is worth looking at the modernist altar painting by Helēna Heinrihsone. It is said that there is no similar painting in any other church. Before the painting was hung, a cross hung at its location. |

The most important aspects of this park are a shallow lagoon-type lake – Lake Pape, with its flood land meadows, the shore of the Baltic Sea, the Nida swamp, and the more than 270 different types of birds that have been spotted here. The oldest bird ringing station in Latvia (est. 1966) is found between Lake Pape and the Baltic Sea. Birds and bats are caught and ringed there. Lake Pape is the first place in Latvia where so-called “wild” horses (the “Konik” breed) were released with the aim of managing the flood land meadows.
