For visitors in a hurry or those who have already explored the museum several times, we offer a short visit: ascent to the museum’s observation deck at a height of 32 metres. On a clear day, it provides views extending up to 21 kilometres. From above, visitors can also observe the calendar stone circle “Lithuanian Sun” located in the museum’s outdoor exhibition area.
The surrounding landscape is hilly and forested, with an abundance of lakes. Molėtai district is home to 285 lakes, and from the 32-metre-high observation deck, you have the unique opportunity to see as many as six lakes at once.
In favourable weather conditions, you may also spot the distant hills of Aukštaitija National Park near Lake Tauragnas. On clear days, the church towers of the towns of Molėtai and Alanta can be seen on the horizon.
Duration: up to 30 minutes
Availability: ascents take place on weekdays only and are subject to availability. We recommend calling in advance at +370 615 20688 before your visit.
