Chronicles of Kuldīga
Kuldīga, Latvia's oldest town, was founded in 1202 by the Bishop of Bremen. Its strategic location on the River Venta made it a key trading hub in the Hanseatic League era. Over the centuries, the town's architecture evolved, with Gothic and Baroque styles dominating the city's picturesque centre. Today, Kuldīga is a cultural melting pot, celebrating its heritage through festivals like the Kuldīga Music Festival and the Venta River Festival. Visitors can stroll along the river, visit the stunning Kuldīga Castle and explore the town's charming streets lined with historic buildings.
