Sigulda lies 50 km east of Rīga. Originally inhabited by Finno-Ugric Lives tribes, who erected wooden fortresses on the surrounding hilltops, after the 13th century the town became an object of covetousness, fought over by the Germanic knights and the archbishop of Rīga. The knights built their castle in Sigulda, while the archbishop erected his opposite one in Turaida, allowing each of the two rivals to keep an eye on the other. The main attraction, however, is the 1,260 m-long bobsleigh run, which welcomes thrill-seekers in summer and winter alike.
