Join me on a self-guided tour through Riga's Old Town, uncovering the essence of Latvian identity. I’m Emīls, your guide through the heart of Riga's Old Town. On this tour, I’ll weave exciting stories from our history and share some Latvian legends. Instead of dry facts and figures, prepare to be enchanted by vibrant narratives that breathe life into our past.

On the way, I'll share intriguing insights. These include the whereabouts of the oldest pagan settlements, the secrets concealed within a Reformation church's basement, and the enigmatic tales surrounding the monks of St. John church. We'll also explore the beloved folklore of "The Town Musicians of Bremen" and learn about the tragic history of St. Peter’s church and Riga's unfortunate burning. We'll marvel at the grandeur of the Brotherhood of Blackheads and uncover the mystical allure of Dome Cathedral with its whispered tales of "witches."
