Located about 100 kilometers from Riga, Tukums is a picturesque small town with a well-preserved historical center, ancient wooden architecture, and beautiful gardens.

The city was first mentioned in historical sources in 1253. At the end of the 13th century, the Livonian Order built a new castle here. Tukums received city rights in 1445.

While walking along the narrow cobbled streets, pay special attention to the old doors tailored by carpenters and blacksmiths.
