The Polish House is the only property belonging to Polish community in Latvia. The Polish House building was purchased in 1930 with resources gathered by the Polish community, during the Soviet times the building was expropriated, but was returned to the Poles after Latvia regained its independence and in 1997 the Polish Culture Centre was established with support of Daugavpils City Council. The Polish Society “Promen” and the Polish Culture Center work now in the Polish house and there also the self-governing groups perform their activities: the mixed choir “Promen”, the folklore group “Kukulecka”, the children's theatre group and the vocal and instrumental ensemble. In 2005 the Daugavpils Polish Centre received a bronze figurine, which was conferred by the Polish Journalists Association.

But this year in May, the folklore group “Kukulechka” received the Polish television “Polonia” award “For popularising Polish identity outside Poland borders”, this is a very prestigious award and such cultural and artistic workers as Andzej Vaida, Kshishtof Pendereckis also received it.
