M.K. Čiurlionis Museum of Art — Attraction in Kaunas

One of the most interesting museums in Lithuania) You must visit it when you're in Kaunas. It is a good example of an art gallery where you enjoy Lithuanian art from the Middle Ages till the 21st century. The main exhibition is connected with the life and creativity of Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis. It looks absolutely great - wonderful and a bit mysterious paintings, contemporary installations, and a music hall where you can listen to Čiurlionis' musical composition.

When she said “yes”, I answered that she doesn’t have to worry about it, because we are leaving. If children are not allowed and your staff will harass the guests, please be upfront about it, so I won’t waste my time and money...

Great place for education. Beautiful art. One of the greatest Lithuanian artists ever. Beautiful music and paintings. Educated, well prepared, helpful and friendly staff. There is a place for children to play and educate themselves. Not only toys but lithuanian educational toys as well. Clean, looked after environment. A lot of signs to know where You are ant where to go next. VR 'Path of Angels' is an amazing experience.

Everyone should visit this museum at least once in a lifetime, but I...
