Two storey building fronting the road and a single storey building with a small inner courtyard forms an unusual cultural historical ensemble.    Wooden house at 30 Baznicas Street is built in 1879.  In 1924, Rainis (1865–1929) and Aspazija (1865–1943) – Latvian poets, playwrights and public figures acquired the building.
