Collection of the Kuldīga County Museum, Collection and Research Department Audio Guide Tour

This self-guided audio walk explores Kuldīga’s old town, river landmarks, and historic streets. It is ideal for first-time visitors who enjoy small-city charm, wooden architecture, local history, and scenic views you can take in at your own pace. The route begins at Kuldīga Old Town Hall Square, where cobbled streets, low historic buildings, and the calm scale of the town set the mood. From there, you pass the oldest wooden house in Kurzeme, continue toward the brick bridge over the Venta, and move through the old center past shops, museum collections, and streets lined with red roofs and timber details. Along the way, you reach the wide Venta waterfall, one of Kuldīga’s best-known natural sights, then continue to the Alekšupīte waterfall and St. Catherine’s Lutheran Church. The walk finishes back near Old Town Hall Square after a loop through the heart of Kuldīga. On the way, the most memorable moments are likely to be the sound of water rushing over stone, the view from the old brick bridge, the sight of the tiny river running between houses, and the warm texture of one of Latvia’s most beautifully preserved historic towns.
