Here you will become acquainted with the Latvian cultural heritage ― everything that has been created in hundreds of years and has proved to be stronger than Time. You will learn of what makes Latvians Latvian, of the strongest manifestations of the creative spirit we've ever had. From ethnic rites to painting to the beginnings of cinematography to Latgalian crafts to architecture to Song Celebration.

Art and culture has always been the avant-garde of any society. It has been blazing trails in the human mind, creating new values and discovering new horizons. And when culture has fulfilled its mission of innovation and enlightenment, when society has thanks to it become five minutes, five grams or five millimetres different, it becomes heritage — a brick in the building of a nation's identity. We are looking back at it from the very horizons it has revealed for us once upon a time. We honour and esteem it like we honour and esteem our own parents. And it tells us something new every time. A country is only as big as its creative spirit. Welcome to the Latvian Cultural Heritage!
