Riga Music Boarding High School, Secondary school and architectural monument in Zemgale Suburb, Latvia.

Riga Music Boarding High School is a residential school with educational and living facilities in the Zemgale Suburb. The building provides specialized music instruction, practice rooms, and performance spaces for students aged 10 to 18.

Architect Reinhold Georg Schmaeling designed this school in 1911, marking the beginning of specialized music education in this part of the city. The building reflects early 20th-century ideas about training young musicians.

The school hosts regular concerts and performances that shape musical activity in Latvia. Students compete in contests and contribute to the city's cultural life through their recitals.

The school facilities are accessible during the academic year for students and provide specialized spaces for daily practice and instruction. Visitors should check ahead before visiting, as the facility operates as a residential school with limited visiting hours.

The school uses a selection process based on musical talent, allowing gifted students from various social backgrounds to access specialized training. This admission approach has enabled multiple generations of musically talented young people to receive intensive education regardless of their economic circumstances.
