点评:There is an entrance fee of 5 Euros and we felt this was worth the price. The cathedral is very ornate inside and has a lot of Riga and Latvian history inside. There is a large collection of artifacts including cannons and relics in the cathedral's cloister and courtyard area beside the church. Inside there is a baptismal font from the 13th century, stained glass from the 19th century and paintings from all centuries since the church was built. There are interesting bits of Riga's history as well including a line to mark where the flooding got up to in the 1700s and church pews from the Blackheads (which had/have a famous clubhouse nearby).
There is a map at the front desk that is available in a variety of languages and has numbers marked for the most interesting features in the cathedral and has some brief information on each one. There is also a guide at the back of the cathedral to show where other interesting markers are in the Cathedral.
The church is located in Riga's Old Town and we spent about just under an hour inside the cathedral and a couple of hours in the area. Behind the church there are some statues including a unicorn, dragon and an armadillo. We also are at a nearby restaurant that had some very good food and beer. The cathedral hosts concerts and it might be worth checking one out because the acoustics are supposed to be quite good but it seems that we just missed out.
If you're interested in going inside but don't want to pay for entrance there is a prayer room just to the left when you enter and that is free and pretty big. English service is provided at 9:30 am on Sundays.
翻译:门票 5 欧元,我们觉得物有所值。大教堂内部装饰华丽,里面有很多里加和拉脱维亚的历史。教堂回廊和教堂旁边的庭院区收藏了大量文物,包括大炮和文物。教堂内部有一个 13 世纪的洗礼盆、19 世纪的彩色玻璃以及教堂建成以来各个世纪的绘画。教堂里还有一些有趣的里加历史,包括一条标记 18 世纪洪水泛滥到哪里的线和黑头教堂的长椅(附近有著名的俱乐部)。
前台有一张地图,提供多种语言版本,上面标有大教堂最有趣特征的数字,并附有每个特征的简要信息。大教堂后面还有一个指南,显示大教堂中其他有趣的标记的位置。
教堂位于里加老城区,我们在教堂内待了将近一个小时,在周边地区待了几个小时。教堂后面有一些雕像,包括独角兽、龙和犰狳。我们还在附近的一家餐馆,那里的食物和啤酒都非常好。大教堂会举办音乐会,可能值得去听一场,因为据说那里的音响效果很好,但我们似乎错过了。
如果你想进去但又不想付门票,进门后左边有一个祈祷室,是免费的,而且很大。周日上午 9:30 提供英语服务。
