A memorial dedicated to the mothers of Siberia in the "Garden of Destiny"
Memorialinis vieta
Located on an island in Koknese parish.
The Garden of Destiny is a symbol created in nature for the constant renewal and growth of the nation – the past, present, and future of both the person and the country meet here. Similar to the Freedom Monument, the Garden of Destiny is also created thanks to donations.
In collaboration with the Latvian Association of the Politically Repressed, a memorial ensemble for the mothers of Siberian children has been created at the center of the virtual House of Silence. Two boulders, engraved with the words “Mother, you gave me life twice. When I was born and when I did not die of hunger. A child of Siberia,” remind us of their selflessness and great sacrifice.
The territory of the Likteņdārzs preserves World War I trenches. A memorial site has been created for the Latvian riflemen in them, which was unveiled on the 100th anniversary of the founding of the riflemen regiments. The composition of the site consists of two parts: a group of Latvian boulders symbolizes those who stayed home, and a row of boulders placed in the World War I trenches symbolizes the Latvian riflemen. The stones were selected and artistically arranged by sculptor Ojārs Feldbergs.
