The collection includes the Museum of the History of Riga and Navigation, located within the 13th-century Riga Cathedral ensemble, and the Latvian Ethnographic Open-Air Museum, which preserves over 100 historic timber buildings. Modern and classic art are showcased in the Arsenāls Exhibition Hall, while the Museum of the Occupation documents the nation's history under foreign rule between 1940 and 1991.
