Riga Castle, located on the Daugava River, is not only a magnificent architectural landmark, but also the official residence of the President of the Republic of Latvia. The castle's historic walls date back to the 14th century, when the Livonian Knights built the fortress. At that time, it served to defend the city and had various military functions. Over the centuries, the castle has been rebuilt and modernized several times, but has always retained its important political and historical significance.
