Latvian Museum of National History, National history museum in central Riga, Latvia
The Latvian Museum of National History spans three floors in a restored 1875 building near the Freedom Monument in downtown Riga.
The institution originated in 1869 through the Riga Latvian Society and received official state museum designation in 1924 after Latvia gained independence.
The museum displays extensive collections of archaeological findings, ethnographic objects, and numismatic artifacts that represent Latvia's development through centuries.
Visitors can explore the exhibitions from Tuesday through Sunday between 10:00 and 17:00, with wheelchair access throughout the building.
