Longest Amber Necklace

Liepājas House of Craftsmen (Amatnieku nams) is the place where you can take a look at the world’s longest amber necklace.

In 2003 there was an event in Liepāja “Donate amber to your city”. During that event people donated so much amber that the world’s longest string of amber beads could be made. The result of donation is the necklace of 123 metres and 19 kilograms.
