The KOD-1 aircraft was produced in the Liepāja Kara osta workshop from 1936 to 1938. It was used to train young pilots in the Latvian Air Force and the Latvian Defense Aviation Regiment.

Have you ever wondered why some plants are much more drought tolerant than others and can thrive throughout the Summer? The secret lies in the roots!

The work compares the roots of lawn grass and other local plants that are considered “weeds”.

Every year more countries and areas are banning the use of tap water for watering lawns. Do we know how much water, energy, time, and resources are spent to maintain lawns in Liepaja and in every backyard garden?

We invite residents not to wait for new rules and restrictions from the EU, from the government, from the municipality, but to show initiative – to replace decorative lawns with white clover.

White clover does not need to be watered, is unaffected by heat and will stay green all summer.

White clover grows up to 20 cm long and is a creeping plant, meaning – it grows along the ground and does not need to be cut or mowed.

White clover leaves and flowers can be used in teas and food.

The foundation stone of the train station in Liepāja, designed by architect Max Paul Bertschi, was laid in 1870, and it was built for the Libau–Romny railway line. The station building was built on an open, sandy site; over time, the city moved closer to the station and factories and two-story wooden houses began to be built around it. People from all over the Russian Empire came to Liepaja and settled in emigrants' houses, others were waiting for ships to leave for the "new world" – America, others were building Karosta and fortifications around the city. In general, around half a million emigrants left through Liepaja from 1906 to 1914. Thanks to the newly built railway line, the city experienced rapid growth. If in 1861, 10,000 people lived in the city, then in 1914, around 100,000 people lived in Liepaja.

The construction of the Libau–Romny railway line lasted from 1871 to 1874. It connected Liepaja with Romni in the eastern part of Ukraine. It had branches to Jelgava (from Mažeikiai (LT) ) and Daugavpils (from Radviliskis (LT)), as well as connections to Voronezh, Kiev, Mykolaiv and other Ukrainian cities. The total length of the entire railway line was 1313 km.
