The museum grounds feature the largest wooden attraction ship in the Baltic. The permanent historical exhibition “Munchausen’s World” offers visitors a chance to get to know the baron as Prince Anton Ulrich’s page in the Ukrainian steppes and at the Russian court, as an army officer, a loving husband, a passionate hunter, and an enthusiastic storyteller – a person who lives life to the fullest while maintaining the ability to laugh at himself and others, seeing a world that is different.
On the second floor of the museum, you will find the largest collection of wax figures in Latvia, titled “Outstanding Figures in Latvian History.” Meanwhile, beer lovers will be delighted by the displayed collection of beer mugs, with over 2,000 beer mugs from 50 countries around the world. Souvenirs are also available.
Bīriņi Castle was built in 1860 according to the design of Riga architect F. V. Hesse by August von Pistolkors, the grandson of Count Mellin. He married the daughter of a wealthy St. Petersburg banker, Emilie von Herder, and it is believed that her dowry helped enhance Bīriņi’s appeal. The overall architectural design of the building is attributed to the neo-Gothic style, with the window arches being semicircular (Rundbogenstil), while the interior is designed in the neo-Renaissance style.
