The 20. gadsimts (20th Century) Salon invites you back to the 20th century! Genuine, unaltered clothing and design objects worn and used by real people in their everyday life and for festive occasions; things that have kept their identity; things whose adventures have not been erased from their surfaces.
At the 20. gadsimts you will be able to examine a telescopic lamp and see the world’s first spring-balance lamps in action. Here you will find a mirror that makes everyone look more beautiful, and dresses in which some solemn-faced matrons of honour have stood next to the happy couple in the 1970s. Menswear that calls for beards and cigarettes, and a briefcase with a fresh loaf of rye bread, wrapped in an issue of the Cīņa newspaper.
