Free Sunday at the National Museum of Lithuania – January 25

2026 01 23

On the last Sunday of the month, January 25, the National Museum of Lithuania invites visitors to explore its branches in Vilnius, Palanga, Kudirkos Naumiestis, and Ožkabaliai free of charge. It is an opportunity to spend time meaningfully—wandering through the layered خزury of national history, culture, and art preserved across the museum’s sites.

Visitors are encouraged to discover both permanent displays and newly opened exhibitions, each offering a different way into Lithuania’s past—its historical narratives, cultural contexts, and evolving interpretations. Across its branches, the museum presents a wide-ranging experience, from archaeology and ethnography to interactive approaches to modern history.
