In this Page the towns that existed in Latvia in 1938 are listed. The list contains both the German and the Latvian names and also the number of resident population in 1938. The German names are presented according to the book Verzeichnis lettländischer Ortsnamen. Unter besonderer Mitwirkung von H.Meyer und G. v. Pantzer herausgegeben von Hans Feldmann. Verlag von E.Bruhns, Riga. 1938, and the population data are taken from /Latvija skaitļos/. The list is grouped in the alphabetic order of the German names. It also informs about the apriņķis the town was situated in. If this cell is empty, it means that the town was the center of the corresponding apriņķis.

Lejasciems [Aahof] was deprived of the rights of town and was included in the corresponding pagasts on January 1, 1940.
