I recall the sand theater in there. It was a cool museum, not forgetting to mention national communists of Latvia and they were purged in the end.
Visited Riga this september and there’s a motor museum over there. One of the museum’s exhibitions is dedicated to the cars of the nomenklatura. It is prefaced so: “while preaching moderation, the heads of the soviet state and communist party did not strive to practice it themselves”.
The soviet occupation is a gaping wound that still hurts and festers over there, after more than 30 years since the fall of the soviet regime.
