Geocache Description:


LV

Mārupīte ir neliela upīte, Daugavas kreisā pieteka Rīgā un Mārupes novadā. Sākas Medema purvā starp Stūnīšiem un Tīraini. Ietek Daugavā aiz Raņķa dambja Āgenskalna līcī. Līdz 20.gadsimtam saukta par Māras dzirnavu grāvi, kas pie Kobronskansts ieplūda Kīleveina grāvī. Līdz pat 1924. gadam uz Mārupītes atradās vienas no senākajām Rīgas dzirnavām - Māras dzirnavas (sākotnēji sauktas par Marijas dzirnavām), kas mūsdienās zināmas no Rutku tēva romāna "Trīs vella kalpi" un no romāna ekranizācijām — "Vella kalpi" (1970) un "Vella kalpi vella dzirnavās" (1972), lai gan filmā uzņemts Zlēku dzirnavu dīķis.

Mārupīte is a small river, the left tributary of the Daugava in Rīga and Mārupe region. It starts in Medema swamp between Stūnīši and Tīraine. Goes to the Daugava behind the Ranka dam in Āgenskalns bay. Until the 20th century, it was called the Mara mill ditch, which flowed into the Kielevein ditch near Kobronskansts. Until 1924, one of the oldest mills in Riga was located on Mārupīte - Māra Mill (originally called Marija Mill), which is known today from Rutku's father's novel "Three Devil Servants" and from the novel's screenings - "Devil Servants" (1970) and " The servants of Devil in the vella mill "(1972), although the film captures the pond of Zlēku mill.
