In 2025, new digital equipment is installed at the “Sēļu sēta” exhibition — the Interactive Magic Mirror. This modern screen brings ancient history closer to today’s audiences, allowing visitors to explore, learn and even step into the world of 12th-century Selonia.
- Explore archaeological heritage: discover male and female folk costumes from the 12th century, based on findings from excavations at Sēlpils Lejasdopeļu.
- Learn through play: test your knowledge by assembling the costume elements in the correct historical order.
- Try on the past: use the integrated camera and augmented reality to see yourself dressed in virtual historical costumes in real time.
By combining research, technology and storytelling, the Magic Mirror makes cultural heritage more accessible, engaging and memorable for visitors of all ages.
