About the Church
The Roman Catholic Church of St George in Skrunda stands in the town of Skrunda, on the Venta river in western Courland, in the Kuldyga area. This small church belongs to the Liepāja Diocese and is dedicated to St George.
Like other parishes in Courland, the Catholic community of Skrunda had a difficult time during the Soviet era, but after Latvia regained its independence, the life of the faithful here recovered once more. The church serves the Catholics of Skrunda and the surrounding settlements as a place of prayer and community gathering.
