Day 169. Žaislų muziejus (Toys Museum) for little and big kids

A great idea to spend few hours with kids it to visit Žaislų muziejus (Toys Museum).

In the end of 2025 we paid in total 17 eur for: 1 kid, 1 senor & 1 unit of workforce. 

Notice! 1 hour is to short to spend in the museum, you should leave for visiting at least 2 hours.

And you should come there in a good mood.

you can catch, some rare, but very rare oportunity to visit St. George Church and the former Monastery of  Carmelites located on the the previous land of Radziwills near the Building of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania.

The Church of St George was concecrated in 1506 by Mikalojus Radvila - the grandpa of the famous Grand Dutchess of Lithuania and the Queen of Poland Barbora Radvilaitė.

The Monastery was closed in he very end of 18th century.

Later, the seminary was operating there till the II WW.
