Why go

The university grew from the Riga Medical Institute founded in 1950 and carries the Stradiņš name associated with Latvian medicine. A public open day or lecture can make that academic story accessible, but ordinary teaching areas are not a sightseeing visit.

What to look for

  • The main building is at 16 Dzirciema iela.
  • Its institutional roots include the Riga Medical Institute of 1950.
  • The university sometimes holds public open days.

Useful to know

  • Look for a newly announced public event before planning a visit.
  • Do not assume access to teaching or medical facilities.
