In this two-story wooden summerhouse, Aspazija spent the last 10 years of her life. The restored exhibition display includes Aspazija’s spacious dining room and salon with a richly decorated tile stove, floral furnishings and an antique wireless radio set that broadcasts the voice of Aspazija, recorded in the late 1930s. A narrow wooden staircase leads to her former study that still holds several original furnishings once owned by the author.

The house where the Latvian poet Aspazija spent the last years of her life is an architectural monument of national importance. The building was constructed in 1903, and it still draws attention with an elaborate finishing of the façade. In 1996, the house was opened for the public as a memorial for the poet and a sister site of the city’s museum. At the end of her life, the poet expressed her wish that the house in Dubulti becomes a meeting place for creators.

The House of Aspazija has indeed become a point of attraction for writers, artists, photographers and the intelligentsia who flock here from Rīga, Jūrmala and other parts of the country. Poetry and music, art and history, and simply friendly conversation create the special aura of this singular place.
