Был создан Музей лугов об их возделывании в прошлом, и в наши дни.

The village of Kaldabruņa in Sēlija has a wealth of ancient traditions that have been handed down from generation to generation and preserved in oral history and work.  The Meadow Museum is a place where the traditions are accumulated, and people who know about them gather there.  The museum was established at a 100-year-old building that used to house a preschool.  It was set up by the "Water Signs" organisation. 

Ieva Jātniece was one of the funders of the Meadow Museum and is a story-teller who also runs a glass processing workshop where she transforms windowpanes into jewellery with elegant impressions of meadow plants.  Ingrīda speaks with a sonorous Selonian dialect which differs a bit from classical Latvian.  Andra, in turn, will take you to the garden of medicinal plants, where you will be able to choose plants for herbal tea.  She will prepare a tasty meal from things that are available at Kaldabruņa and offer a tour of a wood processing workshop where Andra operates a laser cutting system to prepare designs for original souvenirs. 

Visit Kaldabruņa to get a true sense of the diversity of a rural lifestyle.  This is an environment in which ancient traditions organically live together with modern technologies.
