History

Baltezers historically formed around the Ādaži-Bukulti Castle as Baltezers-Bukulti surrounding the parish church. In 1562, Gotthard Kettler appointed Heinrich von Don as the landlord.
The village itself took its modern shape after World War II, as private housing grew around the land of the Baltezers Lutheran Church, built in 1772.
