Goldfish History Repository Museum

Located in Zeltiņi parish, Alūksne municipality.
Visits must be arranged in advance.

An opportunity to travel through time. Uniforms of various armies, the “red corner”, everyday objects tell the story of the recent Soviet and pre-Soviet life in Latvia. A school classroom – an eyewitness to the lives of students from different times. For those who experienced these times – an opportunity to linger in memories, for the younger generation – to see the world in a different light. The Zeltiņi Museum was founded in 2007 as a place to store Soviet heritage.
Here you can also learn about the history of the school founded by pastor Ernst Gliks, the life stories of local villagers, and information about the life of villager Edgars Liepiņš.
