Mentzendorf House Musuem

Old town Riga is filled with many centuries-old buildings that, at one time, were the homes of wealthy Baltic merchants. Although many are preserved and used for various functions today, only a few remain preserved in their original state, as museums. The best is the Mentzendorf House Museum which gives the visitor an authentic taste of medieval life in Riga. The building, frescoes, and furnishings are very well preserved giving us the step-back-in-time atmosphere we were searching for one Sunday afternoon...
