Rožmalas, hotel, restaurant, wedding place in Bauska
We, "Rožmalu" the owners, we are farmers and we also want to show our visitors how agriculture has developed through the centuries, from ancient times to today's new technologies. We have created an exhibition at the Ribbe windmill "Graudu ceļš" . We appreciate the legacy left by our ancestors - the Ribbe windmill, which is not only the pride of us, but also of Zemgale region and revives the landscape of that time in Bauska region. The structure of the windmill, its equipment and details have been designed and tested over the centuries and are one of the most complex monuments of the nation's construction, which has preserved the heritage and work ethics of our ancestors. The Ribbe windmill was built according to a Dutch-style project that was typical of large and powerful windmills at the time. They got their name thanks to the surname of the first owner - Riba. It is said that the workers who built the windmills received one siek per day( sieks - ancient Latvian grain volume measure) grain, but the supervisor - silver ruble.
