Motor Museum
What is undoubtedly eastern Europe's finest motor museum is
tucked away on the outskirts of Riga, and makes for an essential
outing if you enjoy classic cars and Soviet history. The museum
contains Molotov's limousine, Stalin's bombproof sedan, and the
wreck of Brezhnev's car in which he crashed. The model dummies in
the vehicles are a nice touch. There is a priceless collection of
classic sports cars and motorcycles - irresistibly photogenic for
petrol heads.
Information & Facts
Address
Admission
Language
Latvian is the official language, but English,
Lithuanian, Russian and German are also spoken.
Money
The official currency is the Lat (LVL), which is divided into
100 santims. Most hotels and restaurants in Riga accept credit
cards, and most major banks cash travellers cheques, but outside of
the capital credit cards are not widely accepted and credit card
fraud can be a problem at smaller institutions. Foreign currency
can be exchanged at any bank, at money change kiosks and at some
hotels. Note that a 4% fee will be charged to exchange US dollars
that are torn or marked in any way. Most banks are closed on
Saturdays and Sundays. ATMs are available in the larger cities.
Opening Times
Open daily from 10am to 6pm
