Discover the enchanting allure of the Dvina River, a historic waterway that winds through the heart of Archangel, Russia, and Latvia. From the Mouths of the Dvina, where the Archangel Michael protects mariners in an iconic engraving, to the frozen waters of Riga, where castles and cathedrals reflect in the ice, the Dvina has captivated artists, explorers, and locals alike for centuries. Karelians share a moment of tranquility by its banks, sipping tea and embracing the serene beauty. Barbant's 1879 painting and Jan Luyken's detailed sea charts offer a glimpse into the river's rich maritime history. Fishermen cast their lines in the hope of a bountiful catch, while German troops once stood along its shores. The Dvina River, a testament to the enduring spirit of the lands it touches, continues to inspire awe and wonder.
