The House of Latgalian traditions and skills "Ambeļu skreine"

The House of Latgalian Traditions and skills “Ambeļu skreine” is a place where latgalian cultural heritage is populated. The wooden house was built in the beginning of 20th century. There was teachers’ house at that time when there was a school in Ambeļi village. The main festivities of the year are held here and traditional crafts are demonstrated. Guests can participate in dancing evenings, singing, fortunetelling, bread baking and cheese making. The exhibitions of art are usually held here as well.
