Latgale, Administrative division in eastern Latvia.
The easternmost region of Latvia extends north of the Daugava River, featuring numerous lakes, dense forests, and varied landscapes across 14,547 square kilometers.
Following the Livonian War in the 16th century, Latgale became part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, leading to distinct cultural developments separate from other Latvian regions.
The region maintains a strong Catholic presence at 65.3% of the population, distinguishing it from the predominantly Lutheran character of other Latvian territories.
The territory contains multiple transportation networks connecting major cities like Daugavpils and Rezekne with regular train and bus services to other parts of Latvia.
Latgale ceramics gained international recognition at the 1937 Paris exhibition, highlighting the regional pottery traditions dating back to medieval Jersika.
