Ethnographic Open Air Museum Rīga, Latvia | The Planet V [4K] 

IEPAZĪSTI LATVIJAS ETNOGRĀFISKO BRĪVDABAS MUZEJU
In 1924, the Latvian Council of Monuments signed an order to create the open-air museum in Riga. The idea for the new museum was inspired by open-air museums in Scandinavia, particularly Skansen in Stockholm. The plan was to relocate a homestead from all four regions of Latvia - Kurzeme, Zemgale, Vidzeme, and Latgale - to the museum. Each of the buildings would represent the different crafts of each area.
The museum currently occupies 87 hectares and displays 118 buildings, as well as more than 3,000 items. Most of Latvia's historical ethnic groups are represented in the museum. The museum's collection holds approximately 150,000 artifacts.
