Dundaga Palace
Dundaga Palace, built in the 13th century has witnessed wars, changes of owners and has been rebuilt several times, it has burned twice, but restored again and expanded. Although the palace has been significantly modernised during the rebuilding process, it has still partly preserved its fortification character with a guard tower at the gate and a courtyard. Nowadays the palace is a place for celebrations, wedding parties and a comfortable accommodation. The Culture Centre and the Arts and Music School is also located in the palace. There is a small island called Kalnadarzs at the end of the palace. It was used as a fortification in the past, but during the 18th century a garden was arranged here.
