Rēzekne Castle, Medieval castle ruins on Castle Hill in Rēzekne, Latvia.
The stone fortification stands on a hill in downtown Rēzekne, displaying remaining walls and foundations of a former military stronghold.
The Livonian Order constructed Rēzekne Castle in 1285 under master Vilhelms Šurborgs, establishing it as a defensive structure against Russian and Lithuanian forces.
The castle site reveals evidence of a ninth-century Latgalian wooden fortress, representing the earliest settlement period of ancient Baltic tribes in this region.
Visitors can access the castle ruins at Krasta iela 31 in Rēzekne, where guide services provide detailed information about the fortification's architecture.
A clay sculpture of Princess Rose created by local potters stands at the base of Castle Hill, while a detailed model across the street shows the medieval structure.
