Exposition "Latvian Army in Pļaviņas in the 20th Century"

During the War of Independence, the headquarters of the Latvian Eastern Front was established in Pļaviņas. In 1919, the activities of Latvian army units against the Red Army in Latgale were led directly from Pļaviņas. Now near the former headquarters building there is a memorial statue dedicated to 15 cavalry of the Lāčplēsis Military Order born in Pļaviņas region. In the premises is an exposition “Latvian Army in Pļaviņas 20th century”, which tells about events during the freedom fights in Pļaviņas, as well as provides an insight into the life stories of the Knights of the Lāčplēsis War Order.
