Description:
Dole manor park is located in the centre of Dole Island – the current territory of the Daugava Museum. The park has a significant cultural and historical value. Visitors can see an open-air exposition with an ancient fishermen house, as well as other thematic constructions and environmental objects. Here is also a nature monument – a large dolomite outcrop, which is one of the last cliffs on the industrially transformed coast of the Daugava River – this site is though not accessible to wheelchair users due to the terrain of the area, as there are steep stairs down the coast to reach the outcrop. However, the walk on the path stretching up the coast will still be very enjoyable, as it opens fantastic views over the Daugava River. The Museum offers to see various fishermen craft tools used by our ancestors and find out how the valley of the largest river in Latvia looked like before the construction of the HES cascade (the Museum is accessible to wheelchair users).
Accessibility
Tree roots at few stretches may hinder the walk a little, therefore assistant is recommended. Open during park working hours. See al prices and working hours at www.daugavasmuzejs.lv. Free of charge for people with disabilities.
