Event description

On May 23, the Night of Museums will take place for the 22nd time across Latvia, and Jaunpils Castle also invites you to experience a special evening! ✨
This year's theme – "The Adventure of an Object" – reminds us that every object has its own story and value.
If the walls of Jaunpils Castle could talk, they would tell the story of 725 years...
But for the last 35 years – about a museum that brings new life here.

👉 Are you ready for a night where history comes to life? This year, objects will talk, tell stories, and take you on exciting adventures!
