Housed inside a spectacular white villa overlooking Druskonio Ežeras (Druskonis Lake), this collection of small rooms packed with old photographs, furniture, maps, letters, bottles, pianos and much more besides charts the rise of Druskininkai as a health resort and also finds time to host the occasional concert. Of particular interest are the fabulous maps on the walls, including the one from between the wars that clearly shows the bizarre international border running down the middle of Meilės Sala (see Parks & Gardens). The nice people who work here speak some English, and can be persuaded to show you around if it’s not too busy. Charming, and highly recommended.

Admission: adults 3Lt, students, children 1Lt.
