Subate
This compact Latvian village on the shores of Lake Subate, near the Lithuanian border, with a layered history stretching back to 1570, when Gotthard Kettler, the first Duke of Courland and Semigallia, granted the Baltic German Plater family an estate here. Religious conflict between Catholics and Lutherans once split the settlement into two towns across the lake, reunited in 1894. The town was formerly a trading centre for Lithuanian flax and an educational hub for the eastern Duchy of Courland and Semigallia.
