What To Expect

Start your walk at the House of the Blackheads. Just open Ciceru nearby to begin exploring this reconstructed 14th century guild hall from the outside, where the lavish Dutch Mannerist façade and symbolic sculptures tell the story without entering the building.

Admission Not Applicable

View St. Peter’s Church from the square. The towering spire, the golden rooster and the Gothic brickwork are all visible from the exterior and offer a complete look at Riga’s most dramatic repeat reconstruction project.
