THE SOUL OF RIGA
Tower of Light and Shadow — Riga Cathedral
History & Facts
Riga Cathedral, begun in 1211, is the largest medieval church in the Baltics. Its tower has been rebuilt many times and today remains a defining Old Riga landmark.

Interesting
The cathedral’s organ, once the largest in the world in the 19th century, still attracts music lovers and visitors from across the globe.

Author’s Note
The name comes from how the tower plays with light and shadow, creating a dramatic silhouette against the sky. Infrared tones enhance this effect.
