St. Catherine’s Church (1252) is the oldest church in Kuldiga. A metal medallion with an image of St. Catherine can be seen over the side (court) doors of the church. This is also an emblem of the town Kuldiga, because Catherine is a patroness of Kuldiga and she holds a rudder in the right hand and a spear (which is a symbol of power) in her left hand.
