is map of Latvias military heritage is aimed not just at inviting people to go on a unique trip to learn about Lat-vias military history, but also at offering a single source of information about little known, but very interesting objects about which we have very little evidence.

Military heritage in terms of this map refers to histor-ical outdoor objects such as redoubts, fortresses, certain castles, shoreline defence batteries, bunkers, dugouts, locations of major battles, former military bases, army airfields and bases, as well as museums and collections located in places where history can be studied close up. e map mostly covers military objects from the last few centuries objects which are related to different military forces and the things that they did.

Many of the destinations are well-appointed, and several have available guides. ere are a few destina-tions which are accessible only in accordance with spe-cific rules. Others are not well-appointed or are closed to visitors. In the latter case (the army base at Skrunda, for instance), it is worth visiting the destinations anyway so as to place them on the list of military heritage objects that you have seen.

is map includes descriptions of 60 military ob-jects, complete with photographs, including histori-cal ones. ere is also information about 239 places which offer accommodations. Many of the objects are in NATURA 2000 territories, and some are cultural monuments.Text: Juris Smainskis, Andris Junkurs, LLTA Lauku ceotjs, 2011Information about photographers and sources of infor-mation is provided alongside each specific image. Lauku ceotjs would like to thank everyone, who made an investment in preparing this map.

ATTENTION!

Please be careful when you visit military ob-jects. You must take responsibility for your own safety there.

Description: More than 1,000 people stud-ied at the Mazirbe Maritime School (1894-1914). During World War I, the school was evacuated to Tartu in Estonia and then to Taganrog in Russia. During the Soviet Era, the Red Army used the building as a border guard-

ing facility. The historical building and the bor-der guard tower have survived to this very day. The forest road between the school and the beach used to be known as Captains Way. The path leads to the former border guard facility and its tower ( please do not try to climb the

tower it is dangerous). There are also the ru-ins of one-story buildings. One used to con-tain a spotlight which guards used to light up the beach and the nearby sea.

Where: The Maritime School is visible when you go down the Mazirbe-Korags road.
