Exploring the Outdoor Exhibition

You can visit it on your own at any time of the day, and there are also many lakes in the surrounding area.

The museum’s outdoor exhibition is freely accessible to visitors at all times and can be visited even when the museum building is closed. The central feature of the outdoor exhibition is the stone circle “Lithuanian Sun.” This is the only megalithic-type calendrical stone structure in Lithuania, with a diameter of 30 metres. Sunlight indicates the cardinal directions, equinoxes, and solstices. Nearby stand a two-metre forged metal sundial and models of the planets. The stones forming the circle were brought from all regions of Lithuania.

Visitors may explore the stone circle independently, view temporary outdoor displays, and enjoy the beauty of the museum’s natural surroundings.

Separate guided tours of the outdoor exhibition are not organised.

You can visit independently at any time of day, and the surrounding area also offers plenty of lakes.
