Bauska Town

Here, where the Mūsa and Mēmele rivers meet to form the Lielupe, where the splendid roses always bloom along Rīgas Street, and where the only reconstructed 17th-century town hall in Latvia stands proudly at the heart of the old town – Bauska welcomes you.
A town rich in stories and unique in its diversity. At the confluence of the rivers, the grand Bauska Castle invites visitors to journey through the centuries while the nearby open-air stage becomes a lively gathering place during festivals, attracting people from all corners of Latvia.
The streets of the old town invite you to uncover their secrets – through the unique environmental art objects, the vibrant atmosphere of markets and events, and the charm of historic buildings along the streets.
In Bauska, you’ll discover a town rich in culture and history as well as the joy of tasting local flavours and trying your hand at creative experiences — thanks to the inspiring skills of local craftsmen and home producers.
For an even richer experience, we recommend visiting Bauska in September, when the Zemgale Grand Market takes place in the old town, along with the captivating activity “Ciere”. Enhance your tour with the audio guides “Discover Bauska!” and “The Story of Bauska’s Jews”.
