A journey through the pages of \u0100da\u017ei Municipality\u2019s history in an audio guide format!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The town of \u0100da\u017ei, as we know it today, began to take shape in the 1960s around the present-day L\u012bgo Square. At that time, it was primarily known as a collective farm (\u201ckolkhoz\u201d), which existed for 41 years and significantly influenced the lives of many Latvians. The collective farm system, where participation was mandatory, eliminated private ownership and left deep marks on society despite Soviet propaganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this walk, you will discover how \u0100da\u017ei developed during the Soviet era, when the collective farm and later the \u201c\u0100da\u017ei\u201d agro-firm shaped local production through fur farming, bread baking, and horticulture, while also constructing important public buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The collective farm was designed as a model enterprise, often used to impress foreign visitors while concealing the realities of everyday life behind the \u201cIron Curtain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
