The grand, palace-like building of Latvian National art museum is one of last Ecclecticism buildings in Riga (built in 1905, designed by the German architect Wilhelm Neumann) and the first in Baltic states which was built for the purpose of museum. In 2014, it got a total renovation as well as underground expansion.
