Now it is your turn to see why Riga is world famous for its incredible Art Nouveau architecture. Put the medieval churches and Old Town to one side and have a look at what was happening at the beginning of the 20th century. Riga was at its peak, rich merchants were showing off their power and wealth and the city was expanding at an alarming rate. The result was a phenomenal building boom that coincided with a growth of the Art Nouveau style across the world.
Come with us and see what made Riga so special during this period. Over 600 buildings were constructed in this style between 1900 and 1910, so we have a lot to show you.
