Today we remember the story of Lāčplēša day when 95 years ago on November 11 Rīga saw the greatest triumph of Latvian freedom fighters. Lāčplēša day is a celebration with a significant meaning to all of us. Many events will take place in Rīga and all over #Latvia to honour the sacrifice of our fallen heroes with pride and dignity it deserves. It has become a tradition to light candles on this day on the bank of river Daugava - at the Rīga Castle wall, where the front line once stretched. Wherever you are, light a candle tonight to commemorate them. Don’t forget to register your candle in the the ‘Light a Candle! app if you are abroad!
