Former railway station “Airīte” is located in Kurzeme, on the Riga-Liepāja railway line section, between the towns of Saldus and Skrunda. The station’s brick building was built in 1935 according to a standardized project, similar to the stations “Josta” and “Tadaiķi”.
It was neglected since 2001, but in 2013 it was bought by family Stumburs aiming to renew it. The interactive exhibition is placed in the waiting room and cashier’s office, and the exhibits may be touched, and operated; the exhibition tells about the development of the railway line and the work, routine and life of the residents. Now Airīte station also offers accommodation and different cultural events, such as concerts, theatre, films etc.
