Stories of Soviet Riga Guided Walking Tour
Overview
Available languages
2 hours
Mobile ticket
Only a few decades ago Riga looked, spoke and thought absolutely differently – in line with Soviet ideas. Even today, the city preserves the symbols of that time – the Monument of the Latvian Riflemen and the Occupation Museum, the Academy of Sciences and the restored Cathedral of the Nativity of Christ, which used to be the home of a planetarium. The guides of this tour will share their memories and private stories about living under the Communist regime.
