Riga's Occupation Museum

The Museum of the Occupation of Riga

Latvia was occupied from 1949 to 1991 by two successive regimes in Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia. This well curated museum conveys what life was like during this time, and serves as a memorial to those who died or fled as a result of the occupation. Visitors can view film archives and see a reconstruction of life in the infamous Siberian labour camps.
