Enjoy the special tastes of the Ogre region!
The Home Café Days in Ogre Municipality will take place on the 27th and 28th of August, when the local harvest – vegetables, fruit, berries and other farm products – is ready to be served to the guests.
Ogre Municipality boasts the pine-surrounded and well-kept city of Ogre, where modern technologies are widely used for the convenience of residents and visitors. Lielvārde is known throughout Latvia for its rich cultural heritage, which can be explored in the Andrejs Pumpurs’ Lielvārde Museum and the Lielvārde Park with the ruins of a medieval castle, whereas the name of Ikšķile associates with the beginnings of Christianity in Latvia – the ruins of the oldest stone building in the Baltics can still be seen on St. Meinard’s Island. Ķegums, in its turn, is connected with the beginnings of Latvia’s unified electricity supply. A visit to the Energy Museum will provide anyone with new knowledge about the history and development of Latvia’s energy sector. The rural territory of Ogre Municipality with its beautiful landscapes, diverse forests, vast meadows and the meanders of the Ogre River attracts nature lovers.
The Home Cafés of Ogre Municipality offer a chance to enjoy a meal in the city’s cafés, pubs and farmsteads where farm work is done on a daily basis but a festive atmosphere is created outdoors during the days of home cafés. You are welcome to enjoy the magic of the late summer in one of the improvised home cafés found throughout the Ogre Municipality. There is plenty to choose from!
