Latvian Museum of Decorative Arts and Design, Art museum in Old Town, Riga, Latvia.

The Latvian Museum of Decorative Arts and Design occupies a former church building, displaying collections of textiles, ceramics, metalwork, and contemporary design objects.

The museum opened in 1989 in St. George's Church, which stands as the oldest remaining stone structure in Riga's architectural landscape.

The collection includes works from the Baltars porcelain painting workshop founders Romans Suta, Aleksandra Beļcova, and Sigismunds Vidbergs, who shaped Latvian modernism.

Visitors can explore seven distinct collections spanning textile art, ceramics, metal, leather, woodworking, glass art, and design from Tuesday through Sunday.

The museum holds substantial collections from early 20th-century artists who integrated traditional Latvian folk elements into professional decorative arts.
