Holy Trinity Church in Jelgava, Lutheran church tower in Jelgava, Latvia.

The restored Holy Trinity Church tower extends across nine floors, with each level presenting detailed historical exhibitions about the region and its heritage.

Built in 1688, the Holy Trinity Church stood as the largest religious structure in Zemgale until its partial destruction during World War II in 1944.

The tower exhibitions present the history of traditional Zemgale costumes, displaying regional dress patterns, specific color selections, and manufacturing techniques.

Visitors can access tourist information and purchase local souvenirs at the ground floor center before exploring the interactive exhibits on each level.

The ninth floor features a transparent glass walking surface at 37 meters high, enabling visitors to observe Jelgava from multiple viewing angles.
