Rīgas Skolēnu pils

The Rīgas Skolēnu pils occupies an eclectic-style building on Krišjāņa Barona Street, providing educational activities for children and young people aged 3 to 25 years.

The building, constructed in 1880, served as an Orthodox Spiritual Seminary until World War I and later housed the Latvian Military School from 1919 to 1940.

The institution manages over 60 different groups focusing on dance, music, folklore, visual arts, theater, sports, and technology education for 3,800 young participants.

Students can participate in numerous programs including accordion ensemble, folk dance group Uguntiņa, modern dance Karkadē, and the theater group Zīļuks throughout the academic year.

Since 2003, the center organizes an annual showcase at the Latvia Ethnographic Open-Air Museum where students display their talents and achievements.
