Ludza Castle at a Glance
Tips for Visiting Ludza Castle
- Climb the castle's reconstructed observation tower for the best panoramic view over Ludza town and Lake Ludza-the tower is the key viewpoint and is only open in the warmer months.
- Plan your visit in summer when the tower, local tourist services and the small museum in town are operating; outside the season the site is essentially ruins with limited visitor facilities.
