Less than half an hour from Kaunas, the Lithuanian Folk Museum (also Ethnographic open-air Museum) is one of the most popular places in the whole country, particularly loved by adults and children.
With an extension of approximately 195 hectares, it is one of the largest open-air ethnographic museums in all of Lithuania.

The Museum is located in Rumšiškės, along the banks of the Kaunas lagoon. Within this splendid park, it will be possible to visit historical and faithful reconstructions of four typical villages of the most important regions of Lithuania: Dzūkija (Dainava), Aukštaitija (Highlands), Suvalkija (Sudovia), Žemaitija (Samogitia) and Lithuania Minor

You can see how they looked at the end of the 18th century and the first half of the 20th century. Splendid and truly fascinating, it can be visited all year round.
