English Name[edit]

Shouldn't this have english name, like House of Blackheads ? It's just that I remember some guideline stating that one should choose most popular english naming for the title rather than the native -- Xil/talk 17:23, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're correct. Just fixed it. --Philaweb T-C 18:33, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Replica Building[edit]

This building should be put under the heading of a new category named replica buildings (see Talk:St Mark's Campanile). Robert Schediwy (Vienna) 84.112.54.160 (talk) 14:18, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the day

The House of the Blackheads is a building in the old town of Riga, Latvia. The original building was erected during the early 14th century for the Brotherhood of Blackheads, with major work completed in 1580 and 1886. In 1941, the original building was bombed by the Germans; the ruins were demolished by the Soviets seven years later. The current reconstruction was erected from 1995 to 1999.Photograph: David Iliff
