Saeima of the Republic of Latvia

On 21 August 2011, at 15:00 a classical music concert organised by the Saeima and devoted to the anniversary of restoration of Latvia’s independence will begin at the Latvian National Theatre.

On 21 August, several events will be held to celebrate the 20^th anniversary of the de facto restoration of the independence of our state.

On 21 August 1991 the Supreme Council of the Republic of Latvia adopted the Constitutional Law on the Statehood of the Republic of Latvia, thus embarking on the path towards de facto restoration of independence of Latvia. Therefore, on 21 August we will celebrate the 20^th anniversary of the de facto independence of our state.

On 21 August, when the 20^th anniversary of the actual restoration of independence of our country will be celebrated, the main building of the Saeima will be open to the public from 9.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m. Residents and guests of Riga will have an opportunity to see several exhibitions and the historically impressive interior.
