Rose Square (Rožu laukums)

Highlight • Monument

Rose Square is the heart and meeting place of the city. True to its name, roses, which have been planted here for over a hundred years, are its constant value. In spring, crocuses bloom here first, later replaced by daffodils and tulips, and in summer, roses bloom magnificently. In winter, the square transforms into a romantic Christmas island.

Historically, the New Market was located on this site. The buildings adjacent to the square, with two turrets, which formerly housed a meat market, still bear witness to this. In 1910, after the market moved to Kurische Straße, where it remains today, the city authorities decided to create an open rose garden on the square. It was designed in strict compliance with the geometric composition of the area, with a rose hollow in the center and symmetrically arranged paths. Rose Square received its current name in 1911.

On the concrete edge of the Rose Hollow, you can see signs of the cities of the Commonwealth of Liepaja, each facing the direction of the respective city. Right next to it grows a remarkable and scenic tree of national importance – the Manchurian walnut.

If you would like to explore Liepaja with a guide, from June 1 to August 31, you can meet a guide in Rose Square holding a green and red Liepaja flag every day at 10:00 a.m. At 12:00 p.m. for a two-hour tour of Liepaja.
