Zemgale
Riga
ZemgaleSOUTHERN LATVIA
Zemgale is the name given to the area of southern Latvia stretching from south of Riga along the west bank of the River Daugava and down to the border with Lithuania. Its name derives from the Semigallian tribes which once occu-pied it before the arrival of the German crusaders in the 13th century.
Much of Zemgale is fertile farmland, making it Latvia’s pantry, and the drainage which made the land suitable for agricul-ture means that the region is criss-crossed with streams and rivers, many of them finding their way into the Gulf of Riga via the River Lielupe.
Zemgale is divided into 20 smaller regions. The area is rich in castles, castle mounds, manor houses and palaces, the most spectacular of which is undoubtedly the lavish Rundāle Pal-ace.
