Miera dārzs, Urban park in Latgale Suburb, Latvia.
Miera dārzs is an urban park in Latgale that spreads across a spacious area bounded by four streets. The grounds contain exercise equipment, children's play areas, and open spaces for recreation.
The garden was created in 1908 on the site of a cemetery that served Riga residents from 1773 to 1872. The original design came from architect G. Kufalts, who oversaw the conversion of the sacred ground into a public park.
The park holds a decorative vase titled 'Memento mori', created by sculptor Rihards Maurs in 1927 as a reminder of the former cemetery that once occupied this ground. This artwork stands as a quiet mark of remembrance among the modern green spaces.
The park is easy to explore on foot and accessible from the surrounding streets. Regular activities and events are organized by the Children's and Youth Center 'Daugmale' throughout the year within the park grounds.
This ground once held a major cemetery that sheltered generations of Riga residents before being transformed into a living public space. The shift from a place of mourning to one of recreation reveals how the city changed over time.
