When was the last time you were in detention center? If you haven't been at all, it's a great place to touch an unfamiliar space and try to feel what it means to be detained. At the moment, the exhibition "Trapped (with Central Heating)" is being held here, which not only complements the mood of the former prison very well, but also delves into the efforts of the Soviet-era man to survive, both accepting and rejecting the dictated living conditions. My insight from this exhibition is that the most confusing traps are in our heads.

Visiting this place was such a surreal experience. Not only do you get to look at things you saw at your grandmother's house, which is kind of like re-visiting your childhood, but also things that you've never seen before. There's plenty of information in each room (which are former cells), giving you a better understanding of how life was in those days. There's a lot of writings on the walls by the former detainees, which is a reminder that this is not just a museum, it's a real detention house. Definitely worth the visit👌

Worth a visit to this former detention building. Original cells are in fact. At the moment there is a superb exhibition on the Soviet period of Lithuania 1960s until 89s. Fascinating. Each cell contains a thematic display, from Soviet literature and pornigrapgy to fashion styles of this Soviet period Excellent!

It's worth a visit for sure, very I teresting the exposition we went to about the Soviet time. The expositions change periodically but even without them the place itself is worth it. It's a former detention house and you can actually be in the interrogation rooms and cells. Very cool Indeed

Definately a place to visit! Not only because of the exhibition which is there but as well because of the building and its history. Entrance from the main street and you can clearly see the doors, where to go! Atmosphere is real and will leave you with different type of feelings.

Sovietmečio slogučiui/kartėliui tolstant tiek laiko, tiek emociniu atžvilgiu, galima sugrįžti į jau praėjusią kasdienybę ir apmąstyti ją iš šiandienos perspektyvos. Kokių pritapimo, išgyvenimo taktikų turėjo išmokti sovietmečio žmogus? Atėjus su vaiku sunku atsakyti į šiuos ir kitus klausimus, bet padiskutuoti įdomu :) Ar tai ko nors moko?! Taip, vienareikšmiškai bent jau kaip neturi būti.. praleidau patalpose 1:30 val. Daug teksto skaitymui. Bilieto kaina 5€, turint gido pažymėjimą, bilietas nieko nekainuoja. Gero laiko 🌺
