National Theatre
National Architectural Monument, 1900-1908.
The building was constructed as the second theatre (Russian) for the city (nowadays - the National Theatre), architect A. Reinberg (1860-1908). The theatre was made in the spirit of “Classicism of Riga burghers”. The theatre building had a well-arranged stage, high quality engineering and technical communications, well-illuminated, stately front staircase and lobby. The figures of Atlantis near the entrance were created by the famous sculptor A. Voltz.
