history

Church in Cibla

The first written mention of an estate was in 1739 as "Ewersmuyze" (Latvian: Eversmuiža ). The municipality of Eversmuiža was then renamed Cibla in 1925 after a nearby historic Latgale castle hill . In more recent times, the village around the former estate is also known as Cibla. There is a middle school, a Volkshaus, a Feldscher station and a Catholic church in the village.

Ciblas novads

Ciblas novads was formed in 2009 from the municipalities of Cibla, Blonti, Līdumnieki, Pušmucova and Zvirgzdene. The administrative center is in Blonti. Ciblas novads has an area of ​​509.4 km². The population was 3309 in 2010, but is on the decline due to a lack of jobs.
