About

Daugavpils is a city on the Daugava River in southeastern Latvia. Its fortress and its association with the painter Mark Rothko are prominent parts of its cultural identity.

Notes

Daugavpils has been the official name since 1920. Medieval Dinaburg also refers to the earlier castle settlement upstream, so historical location matters.
