Academic Centre
Exhibition delights with colourful illustrations of butterflies, beetles, various insects and animals, birds and fish as well, the most impressive items from the library collected by its former owner Prof. E. Strand - zoologist, entomologist, arachnologist. The extras are some exhibits from the museums of the University. About Professor Embrik Strand’s academic life in Latvia around the nineteen twenties and thirties tell photographies lent by the Academic Library and Museums of Zoology and Botany of the University of Latvia.
Parallel to the viewing of showcases of the exhibition you can also enjoy an interactive visual/audio guide with a detailed narrative which allows you to follow at your own pace. Particularly welcome are our first-year students wishing to familiarize themselves with the University of Latvia for the first time.
