Because of this fact and the many bridges that are in town, Kuldīga has become known as “the Venice of Latvia.” Baznīcas, Liepājas, Kalna and other streets are full of interesting cultural monuments. |

War I and rebuilt in 1922 (the architect was Artūrs

erected after the establishment of Latvia’s
independence. The station building was rebuilt once
again after World War II. A bike rental facility is found
inside.
