In 1870, Mr. Horn built the first hotel in Majori, and a concert garden where the famous symphonic orchestras performed. In 1896, the first movie in Jūrmala was shown here, but in 1909 there was first Latvian music
concert where the song “Dievs, svētī Latviju” was performed. Now this song is a national anthem. Despite the fact that in 1913 the Horn’s Garden together with all the ambient buildings burnt down in fire, in 1970, a cinema “Jūrmala” was built there, now Jūrmala cultural centre is located here.
