Former railway station “Airīte” is located in Kurzeme, on the Riga-Liepāja railway line section, between the towns Saldus and Skrunda. The station’s brick building was built in 1935 according to a standardized project, similar to the stations “Josta” and “Tadaiķi”. It was neglected since 2001, but in 2013 it was bought by family Stumburs aiming to renew it.
