Siguldas novads

Siguldas novads combines wooded river country with a strong medieval legacy in a way that reflects its position within the Gauja valley in Latvia’s Vidzeme region. Gauja National Park encompasses many of its defining landscapes, where sandstone outcrops, ravines and forests descend towards the river. Sigulda is known for the ruins of the Livonian Order’s castle, while the nearby Turaida Museum Reserve includes Turaida Castle, begun in 1214 on the initiative of the Bishop of Riga. Gutmanis Cave, a sandstone formation beside the Gauja, is another notable landmark. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare river valleys and historic settings around Siguldas novads.
