Riga
Cathedral (Latvian: Rīgas Doms) is the Protestant
cathedral in Riga, Latvia. Built near the River Daugava in 1211 by Livonian
Bishop Albert of Riga, it is considered the largest medieval church in the Baltic
states. It has undergone many modifications in the course of its history. David
Caspari was rector of the cathedral school in the late 17th century. His son Georg
Caspari also served at the cathedral.
