Mangaļsala Pier Add an Object

Mangaļsala is the first part of the city that all ships cross when entering the Daugava River. It is from Mangaļsala that the Mangaļsala Pier, also known as the Eastern Pier, extends into the sea. The construction of the pier actively followed the Russian emperor from 1850 to 1861. The length of the pier is 2240 meters. The eastern part of the sea is formed by pile structures, which were later filled in and covered with stones. The foundation of the pier is made of heavy fascine and stones. The Mangaļsala Pier serves as a reinforcement of the right bank of the Daugava River.
