Tosmare

Tosmare is a district (neighbourhood) of Liepāja, Latvia near the neighbourhood of Karosta and Tosmare Lake. It is located in the north-eastern part of the city.

Tosmare is well known mostly because of the Tosmare Shipyard (Liepāja Northern Shipyard since 2020) currently owned by SIA LZK (formerly by Rīgas kuģu būvētava).^[1]^[2] The shipyard was founded in 1900 and has two graving docks, and was used by the inter-war Latvian Navy.^[3]

The Latvian poet Mirdza Ķempe lived here in from 1914 to 1926.^[4]
