Activity itinerary

House of the Black Heads (Pass by)
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 storey without entering the building.
St. Peter's Church (Pass by)
View St. Peter’s Church from the square. The towering spire, the golden cockerel and the Gothic brickwork are all visible from the exterior and offer a complete look at Riga’s most dramatic repeat reconstruction project.
Riga Black Magic (Pass by)
Pause outside the historic shopfront associated with Riga Black Balsam. The ceramic bottles, signage and Old Town setting provide all the context needed for this legendary Latvian potion while keeping the stop outdoors.
Livu square
  • 10m
Wander through Livu Square and admire the Cat House from street level. The angry black cats on its turrets and the colourful façades surrounding the square can all be appreciated fully from the outside.
Riga Cathedral (Pass by)
Take in the exterior of Riga Cathedral from Dome Square. The mix of Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque elements, along with the famous cockerel atop the spire, create a rich outdoor experience that does not require entry.
Three Brothers, Latvian Museum of Architecture (Pass by)
Stand on Maza Pils Street and admire the trio of historic houses from the street. Their Gothic, Mannerist and Baroque façades provide the entire architectural narrative from the outside.
Swedish Gate (Pass by)
Walk under the Swedish Gate and view the Powder Tower from the surrounding streets. Both remnants of Riga’s medieval defences are best experienced from the exterior, including the embedded cannonballs on the tower walls.
Freedom Monument
  • 10m
Pause before the Freedom Monument and observe Milda, the three stars, and the sculptural groups surrounding the base. The monument’s meaning and impact are fully conveyed outdoors.
Art Nouveau building (Pass by)
Wrap up your tour on Alberta Street. Admire the expressive Art Nouveau façades, stone faces, and dramatic ornamentation created by Mikhail Eisenstein before ending your walk in Riga’s most theatrical area.
