The principal display, “Museum Tales for Latvia”, consists of nine separate stories. Taken together, they recount the history of Preiļi from its early days as a populated site to later development into a town, from prehistoric times into the present day. The display features remarkable and unique historical evidence and invites to play a board game, which involves shopping in the Latgalian language.
Since 2019, visitors can enjoy a free open-air display “Centennial Oak in the Park of Preiļi”.
