K SENUKAI

Three Brothers, Latvian Museum of Architecture

The Three Brothers, Latvian Museum of Architecture, located behind Cathedral Square, are at 17, 19, and 21 Maza Pils Street. The three buildings represent different medieval architectural styles in Riga and are among the best-preserved stone buildings in the city today, as well as some of the oldest surviving stone structures. The style of these buildings is somewhat reminiscent of Golden Lane in Prague, showcasing the locals' ability to utilize limited land space. The earliest to be built was the White House, constructed at the end of the 15th century. The second, the Yellow House, was completed in 1646, while the third, the Green House, was built at the end of the 17th century. The three buildings symbolize the historical and cultural depth of Latvia. In 1995, the White House was finally nationalized and established as the Latvian Museum of Architecture. The name of these three houses echoes the "Three Sisters" in Tallinn, the capital of Estonia.
