Founded in 2000 and opened to visitors in 2001, the museum celebrates its quarter-century from 2025 to 2026. The first major event of the jubilee program highlights Ronis’s creative legacy and his contribution to preserving and developing porcelain art in Latvia.

In the museum’s ground-floor windows, visitors can see Ronis’s personal exhibition featuring porcelain artworks and original production models that showcase his artistic evolution and distinctive style. In the underground gallery, a broader display presents the Piebalga Porcelain Factory’s designs, including collaborations with numerous Latvian artists.

Ronis, educated during the Soviet era, continued his career after Latvia regained independence, playing a key role in maintaining and reviving the country’s porcelain tradition. He organized international ceramic symposiums, led creative workshops, and later founded the Piebalga Porcelain Factory in 2007 in the Cēsis region. It is the first and largest porcelain manufacturer established in Latvia after independence.

The factory’s hallmark is innovation and diversity—balancing craftsmanship, tradition, and contemporary design. Over 23 years, it has collaborated with nearly fifty artists, including Diana Dimza-Dimme, Māris Subačs, Agnese Bule, and Aivars Vilipsōns, producing both unique and serial works. The factory also reinterprets classic Latvian art in porcelain, such as Beatrise Kārkliņa’s “Stārķītis” and works by Jūlijs Madernieks and Vilhelms Purvītis, while exploring new digital design technologies.
