Ett investeringsprogram genomförs som omfattar upprustning och utbyggnad av vatten- försörjningen, förbättringar i avloppshanteringen, samt uppbyggnad av ett effektivt och finansiellt självbärande VA-bolag i Riga. Sida medverkar tillsammans med EBRD, EIB, Schweiz och Finland, Lettlands regering och Riga stad. Sida finansierar utbyggnad av avloppsreningsverket och ett samarbete mellan Riga Vatten och Stockholm Vatten. Svenska parter: Stockholm Vatten, VAI VA-projekt, YIT Vatten och Miljöteknik.

Jānis Zilgalvis the Study of Valmiermuiža: History and Owners, Manor House and Closed Garden
Scientific Journal of Latvia University of Life Sciences and Technologies Landscape Architecture and Art, Volume 15, Number 15 DOI: 10.22616/j.landarchart.2019.15.04 The Study of Valmiermuiža: History and Owners, Manor house and Closed Garden Jānis Zilgalvis, a full member of the Latvian Academy of Sciences, Latvia Abstract. Valmiermuiža is situated in the north of Vidzeme and borders with the town of Valmiera. The manor is less known than its other outstanding “sisters”, for example, manors of Mazsalaca (Valtenberģi), Cesvaine, Dikļi and others. The most famous person among the owners of Valmiermuiža is Elisabeth von Hallart, who was an initiator of the movement of Brothers’ congregations in Vidzeme, which turned into the wakening movement of common people. There were other owners but they were less known than the von Loewensterns who left valuables items. There is little information available on the manor’s park, and no research has been conducted regarding the closed garden. There is an urgent need to include the manor buildings in the list of the state protected cultural monuments in order to protect them from wrong building activities and other modifications that are not in accordance with the historical cultural environment and spatial structure of the plan. Keywords: protection and preservation of architectural and cultural heritage, parks and gardens, investigation of the manor house architecture Introduction History and Owners Previously the research on the manor of In 1622 the Swedish troops occupied Valmiera Valmiermuiža (in German: Wolmarshof) was county. The Swedish king Gustavus Adolphus conducted in 1986, and that material was a valuable presented the district of Valmiera castle, source of information for further research but new which included the manors of Wolmarshof, Zempen, information appeared in literature and archives [1].
