For a true taste of medieval Latvia, look no further than Cesis. The town’s defining feature is its remarkably intact 13th-century castle complex, where you can explore dark dungeons by candlelight and climb the ancient tower for sweeping views over red-roofed houses. Stroll through the adjacent Cesis Castle Park and down the cobbled lanes of the Old Town, where you’ll find artisan workshops and cozy cafes tucked away in historic buildings. The nearby Gauja National Park offers excellent hiking and cycling trails, making it a perfect base for nature lovers.
Cesis is ideal for couples and solo travelers seeking a slower pace and deep history, though families will also enjoy the interactive castle experiences. The compact town center is the best area to stay, putting everything from the castle to St. John’s Church within easy walking distance. Reaching Cesis is straightforward by train or bus from Riga, with the journey taking just under two hours. Once there, you can easily explore on foot.
Accommodation here is dominated by charming guesthouses and small, historic hotels that reflect the town’s character. On HOTEVI, you can find options like the Hotel Cesis, located right by the castle ruins, or the more intimate St. John’s House Hotel set in a renovated building in the heart of the Old Town.
