Gaujiena Palace (Latvian: Gaujienas muižas pils, German: Schloss Adsel) is a palace in the historical region of Vidzeme, in northern Latvia.[1]

History

[edit]

It was built between 1850 and 1860 in late Classical style. The six-column portico was added later. Since 1922 the palace has housed the Gaujiena comprehensive secondary school (Gaujienas ģimnāzija).[2][3]
