Latvia - Cēsis, medieval town

Cēsis was first mentioned in documents in 1206, and its castle dates from 1207. It was once a prosperous town of the Hanseatic League, as evidenced in its fine architecture, including the Church of St. John (1283). The old town is now preserved by government decree. After a long period of decline, Cēsis began to grow again in the last century after the construction of the Riga-Valka railway.

We visited Latvia on our overland trip by car (a Toyota LandCruiser 4WD campervan) from the Netherlands to the Nordic countries in Europe; see our channel    / janvanbekkum   for hundreds of clips. More clips of Latvia can be found here:    • Latvia  .
