House of the Blackheads is a building situated in the old town of Riga, Latvia. The original building was erected during the first third of the 14th century for the Brotherhood of Blackheads, a guild for unmarried merchants, shipowners, and foreigners in Riga. Major works were done in the early 17th century, adding most of the Mannerist ornamentation. The sculptures were made by the workshop of August Volz.

Ventspils International Radio Astronomy Center is

Ventspils International Radio Astronomy Center is located in the village of Irbene, in a former Soviet army town, and is currently managed by the Ventspils University College’s Engineering Research Center. Here the 32-meter wide radio telescope - the RT-32, is being used for scientific purposes, and is the largest such telescope in Northern Europe and the eighth largest in the world.
After Latvia regained its independence in 1991, it took over Zvaigznite (Starlet) from the Russian army. Latvia also inherited various buildings of the former Soviet army town, with most of them in ruins today.
The parabolic antenna was built in the 1960s on the basis of P-400 ( П-400 ) for the USSR Ministry of Defense. It was located in a secret object called "Zvjozdočka" ("Star") near the Baltic Sea coast. Together with two other smaller parabolic antennas, espionage and all kinds of satellite communications interception were performed.

Cape Kolka is the most pronounced horn on the shor

Cape Kolka is the most pronounced horn on the shores of Latvia, and it is where the waves from two seas clash – the open Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Riga. During the bird migration season, dozens of thousands of birds fly over the cape, and this is the best place to start a visit to Slitere National Park.

The Mazirbe boat cemetery is located in a forest n

The Mazirbe boat cemetery is located in a forest near the seaside of Mazirbe, Dundaga County. Years ago, many of these boat cemeteries were built across the coast of the Baltic Sea. But nowadays, this graveyard is the only one of its kind in the area.

The boats have been here since the 1960s and ’70s, when the discarded vessels were abandoned in the woods. Sadly, their time here appears to be running short, as the wooded graveyard is expected to be lost in about 10 years as nature continues reclaiming the site.
