Bauska Castle

The Bauska Castle sits on a scenery land between two rivers Musa and Memele in the territory of Bauska town. The Bauska Castle complex consits of two parts: the older, the Livonian Order Castle, build in the middle of the 15th century, and a newer, a residence for the Duke of Courland, constructed at the end of the 16th century. During the Great Northern War the Bauska Castle ensemble was blew up by the Russian military. Nowadays the residence of the Duke of Courland is fully restored and is home the Castle Museum, while only ruins remain from the seat of the Livonian Order.

Rundale Palace Museum

The Rundale Palace, located just 15 kilometres from Lithuania – Latvia border, was built in the 18th century by Ernst Johann von Biron, as the summer residence of the Duke of Courland. The palace was designed by Italian architect Francesco Bartolomeo Rastrelli, an author of the Winter Palace in Saint Petersburg. In the course of time and political rush the Palace has changed many owners and purposes – it was used as a hospital, elementary school or even a grain storage facility. Nowadays, after extensive and successful renovation process, The Rundale Palace Museum and Garden attracts masses of tourists and is deservingly called a „Versailles of Latvia“.

    The tour does exactly what it says and is good value for money. The tour guide was informative and drove safely. You get to visit quite a few interesting places and have plenty of free time in each. Overall I am glad I took this tour. The hill of crosses in particular was quite impressive to me, and so was its history. Rundale palace aka Latvian Versailles was basically empty and we had it all to ourselves which was wonderful.

  • One way transport with opportunity to see the sites, what could be better?!

    As a solo traveler, I really appreciated this one way tour from Riga to Vilnius. The driver was good and explained exactly what we would do, and exactly what time we needed to be at the van for every stop. Rundale Palace was amazing and we had time to get lunch there. Also the Hill of Crosses was really interesting. We were dropped off at the main square in Vilnius as expected.
