AKROPOLE Riga has a unique history on the map of Riga's shopping centres, named "Kuznetsov's Legacy", because the shopping centre has been built at The Kuznecov Porcelain and Faience Factory location, as the shopping and entertainment centre says, “The factory, that was founded in 1841, was one of the largest factories in the city. The items produced at the Kuznecov factory were prized by city residents, becoming an important part of the cultural heritage in almost every family, for generations.
