One of the oldest and largest open-air museums in Europe is located on the banks of Lake Jugla, just a 30 minute drive from downtown Riga.
This museum is unique when compared to similar museums around the world with the fact that it began to collect its exhibitions before the war, and thus many of its exhibition objects are in very good condition.
118 historical buildings from all four of Latvia’s provinces – Kurzeme, Vidzeme, Zemgale and Latgale, have been put on display at the museum. The buildings range in age, and most of them were originally constructed between the 17th century up all the way up until the 1930s.

The unique church of St. Nicholas in Horodysh was the oldest church building in Menshchyna. In 2016, the church was moved to the National Museum of Folk Architecture and Life in Pirogov.
St. Nicholas Church was built in Horodysh in 1763, it consisted of a four-sided nave, an eight-sided hall and a six-sided altar. By the way, the structure was built without a single nail.
In 2016, the church was dismantled and moved to Pirogov. Only the foundation remained in Horodysh.
In the restored church, the walls are the same as in Horodyshche, and the outside is decorated with modern materials.
Унікальний храм Святого Миколая в Городищі, був найстарішою церковною спорудою на Менщині. У 2016 році церкву перевезли до Національного музею народної архітектури та побуту, що в Пирогові.
Свято-Миколаївська церква зведена в Городищі 1763 року, складалася з чотиригранного бабинця, восьмигранної зали і шестигранного вівтаря. До речі, споруду побудовали без жодного цвяха.
2016 року храм розібрали і перевезли до Пирогова. У Городищі залишився тільки фундамент.
У відреставрованої церкви стіни стоять ті, що й в Городищі, а ззовні оздобили сучасними матеріалами.

I tested this bench, and it was indeed very comfortable with its organic shape made from a single hollowed-out piece of wood.

The open-air ethnographic museum in Kwiatkówek, near Tum, is a new tourist attraction created in the years 2011-2013. It consists of several essential parts: architectural buildings, shrine, buildings presenting industry and rural crafts (trestle-type windmill, oil mill, smithy) and accompanying objects. The buildings are reconstructions of buildings characteristic of the Łęczyca area from the second half of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century. An exception is the renovated historic windmill from 1820, as well as the oil mill from the mid-20th century and the smithy from the beginning of the 20th century. The furnishings of the homestead reconstruct a typical interior of a country family home from the end of the interwar period. Thanks to lively activities in the form of workshops, shows (including those involving local artists and craftsmen) or folk events, it is a living facility, showing old traditions of rural life and allowing visitors to actively participate.

Widok na skansen z drewnianego pomostu spacerowego :)
Skansen w Kwiatkówku, obok Tumu, to nowa atrakcja turystyczne powstała w latach 2011-2013. Składa się z kilku zasadniczych części: budynków architektury mieszkanej, kapliczki, budynków prezentujących przemysł i rzemiosło wiejskie (wiatrak typu kozłowego, olejarnia, kuźnia) oraz obiektów towarzyszących. Budynki są rekonstrukcjami obiektów budownictwa charakterystycznego dla okolic Łęczycy od 2. połowy XIX po początki XX wieku. Wyjątkiem jest odnowiony, zabytkowy wiatrak z 1820 roku, a także olejarnia z połowy XX wieku i kuźnia z początku XX wieku. Wyposażenie domostwa rekonstruuje typowe wnętrze domu rodziny wiejskiej z końca okresu międzywojennego. Dzięki ożywionej działalności w postaci warsztatów, pokazów (w tym z udziałem lokalnych twórców i rzemieślników) czy imprez ludowych jest obiektem żywym, pokazującym dawne tradycje życia wiejskiego i pozwalającym zwiedzającym na aktywne uczestnictwo.

Estação Ferroviária de Vilar Formoso, localizada no concelho de Almeida, distrito da Guarda. Sendo a principal fronteira ferroviária entre Portugal e Espanha, esta infraestrutura insere-se na Linha da Beira Alta e desempenhou um papel crucial na ligação de Portugal à rede ferroviária europeia. O edifício destaca-se pelo seu rico revestimento azulejar, uma característica marcante da arquitetura ferroviária portuguesa do século XX. Os painéis de azulejos policromáticos, predominantemente em tons de azul e amarelo, foram concebidos pelo pintor João Alves de Sá e produzidos na Fábrica de Cerâmica da Viúva Lamego. Estes elementos decorativos ilustram diversas paisagens, monumentos e cenas etnográficas de várias regiões de Portugal, servindo historicamente como um "cartão de visita" para os viajantes que entravam no país. Historicamente, a estação de Vilar Formoso ganhou particular relevância durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial, servindo como principal ponto de entrada para milhares de refugiados que fugiam do conflito na Europa, um evento hoje assinalado no polo museológico local, denominado " Vilar Formoso – Fronteira da Paz ".
Vilar Formoso Railway Station, located in the municipality of Almeida, in the district of Guarda. As the main railway border crossing between Portugal and Spain, this facility is part of the Beira Alta Line and played a crucial role in connecting Portugal to the European railway network. The building stands out for its rich tilework, a striking feature of 20th-century Portuguese railway architecture. The polychromatic tile panels, predominantly in shades of blue and yellow, were designed by the painter João Alves de Sá and produced at the Viúva Lamego Ceramics Factory. These decorative elements depict various landscapes, monuments, and ethnographic scenes from different regions of Portugal, historically serving as a “calling card” for travelers entering the country. Historically, the Vilar Formoso station gained particular significance during World War II, serving as the main entry point for thousands of refugees fleeing the conflict in Europe, an event now commemorated at the local museum complex, called “Vilar Formoso – Fronteira da Paz.”
