The National Museum of Lithuania holds an extensive collection of Lithuanian cultural heritage items, displayed within several historically significant sites across Vilnius. Browse through exhibits of history, archaeology and ethnography within the Vilnius Castle Complex, ancient fortifications, historic homesteads and elegant administrative buildings. Founded as the Vilnius Museum of Antiquities in 1855, the National Museum of Lithuania now has a collection of over 800,000 items, including relics from the Stone Age, medieval monuments and folk art items. Find the main museum complex within the New Arsenal and Old Arsenal buildings at the foot of Castle Hill. In the New Arsenal, learn about the museum’s beginnings during the mid-19th century and gain a fascinating insight into Lithuania’s history from the 13th until the 19th century.
