Bosca Castle, located near the Latvian city of Bosca, stands on a peninsula where the Musa and Memoli rivers form the Lelupe River. Originally a Semigullion fortress, it was built by the Livonian branch of the Teutonic Knights between 1443 and 1456. The castle served as a military stronghold and administrative center, controlling trade routes and protecting borders. After the Livonian Order's collapse, it became a residence for the Dukes of Coorland. Destroyed in the Great Northern War, it was partially restored in the 1970s to become a historical and tourist site.
