Geocache Description:


Latvijas Nacionālā vēstures muzeja nodaļa Āraišu arheoloģiskais muzejparks atrodas Amatas novadā, Gaujas Nacionālajā parkā. Muzejparku veido 9.-10. gs. latgaļu nocietināta dzīves vieta – ezerpils un tās rekonstrukcija, 14.-17. gs. viduslaiku pilsdrupas, kā arī akmens un bronzas laikmeta mājokļu ideālrekonstrukcijas, kas izvietotas 12 ha lielā teritorijā Āraišu ezera krastā netālu no Cēsīm. . Āraišu ezerpils pašlaik ir pirmais plašāk pētītais šīs kategorijas piemineklis visā ziemeļaustrumu Eiropā. Pateicoties lieliskajai pieminekļa saglabāšanās pakāpei un plašiem izrakumiem ir izveidota oriģinālās ezerpils rekonstrukcija. Tā ir vienīgā šāda veida dzīvesvietas rekonstrukcija Eiropā. 

Āraiši no Rīgas atrodas apmēram 70 km.

It consists of reconstructed buildings from the Stone and Bronze Ages, ancient Latgalians settlements from the 9th-11th centuries, as well as castle ruins from the Livonian period.

Āraiši Archaeological Museum Park stands out among other similar museums in Europe with its unique archaeological findings, the placement of the reconstructed objects on the original site, and the well-preserved cultural historical landscape in Vidzeme.
