Every city has its own poetry. This is our place in Riga’s. Poet House Riga brings together three individual apartments at Lāčplēša iela 48. Our name takes inspiration from Riga’s literary spirit and Aleksandrs Čaks, the poet who found beauty in its streets and people. Čaks lived and worked at Lāčplēša iela 48/50, apartment 14, from 1937 to 1950. His former home is now a memorial museum. Our guest apartments are separate homes in this historic setting, each with its own character. Settle in, step outside and write your own Riga story.
