Riga is the town of Art Nouveau par excellence.In no other town you find so many Art Nouveau buildings than in Riga.Most of the buildings of the New Town are erected around 1900,though many of them are in desastrous appearance.A minor number of buildings in Art Nouveau,but renovated to top quality,you also find in the Old City.

A short notice is here to add.The great ornamentic and the decoration of Art Nouveau is not to recognize by viewing the gallery-thumbnails, it needs to open the images in „original“ quality.
