Die Siedlung wenigstöckiger Holzhäuser entstand im 19.Jh. Hier kann man für Latgale typische geschlossene Innenhöfe, Veranden, Holzverzierungen und Dekors sehen. Die Holzarchitektur der Stadt litt schwere Schäden in Bränden 1866 und 1938. Als das historische Zentrum der Stadt kann man den Marktplatz betrachten, als herausragende Dominate den Burghügel von Ludza, um den herum sich das Netz der Straßen der Stadt gebildet hat. Ende des 14. Jh. befand sich auf dem Burghügel eine alte lettgalische Holzburg, an deren Stelle der Livonische Orden die mächtigste Steinburg Latgales erbaute. 1654 wurde diese von den Streitmächten des russischen Zaren Alexej Michailowitsch zerstört. Vom Burghügel aus bietet sich einer der interesantesten Blicke über Latgale und die älteste Stadt Lettlands mit ihrem historischen Zentrum.

Košrags wird als das jüngste livische Dorf des Küstengebietes angesehen (im 17. Jahrhundert gegründet). Im Jahr 1826 gab es in Košrags 78 Einwohner. Im Jahr 1832 wurde in Žoki die erste Leseschule für livische Kinder in den Küstendörfern der Region Dundaga eröffnet, in der als Lehrer der erste fachlich ausgebildete Live Nick Polmanis arbeitete, der im östlichen Dialekt das Evangelium nach Matthäus übersetzt hat. In Košrags gab es eine Windmühle, eine Wassermühle und Bootswerften. Im Frühjahr legten hier Boote mit den Arbeitssuchenden von der Insel Saaremaa an. 1932 wurde der Hafen ausgebaut und 1938 eine Mole zur Sammlung von Seetang errichtet. In den 30er Jahren des vergangenen Jahrhunderts wurde Košrags regelmäßig von finnischen und estnischen Linguisten besucht, die hier die meisten Einheiten livischer Folklore gesammelt haben. Das Haus Norpiedagas wurde vom gesellschaftlichen Arbeiter livischer Abstammung, Didriķis Volganskis (1884–1968), erbaut. Dort wurde sein Sohn geboren, livischer Kulturarbeiter, Pfarrer (Finnland) Edgar Vaalgamaa (Volganskis, 1912–2003), der das Epos „Lāčplēsis“ (Bärenreißer) von A. Pumpurs ins Finnische übersetzt hat. Heute ist Sīkrags ein nationales Kulturdenkmal.

This arboretum was established in 1996, when dendrologists Raimonds Cinovskis and Ināra Bondare joined with the local government in Rucava in experimenting with plants on the Rucava castle hill.  The first plants were planted in 1998, and ever since then the collection has been expanded in the town centre and outside the Rucava Elementary School.  Each year new and exotic plants are brought in from all around the world.  A traditional garden festival is held each year in May, when rhododendrons and magnolias are in full bloom.

Daļēji saglabājies 19. gs. veidotais parks.
