What you can expect

  • Experience the breathtaking Lithuanian spirit for freedom during the difficult and dark times of the Soviet occupation on a guided tour of the former KGB prison in Vilnius. See the real tools of Soviet oppression and hear doors squeaking with pain.

    Walk through the complex and painful history of Lithuania’s Soviet era on this extended tour “The Way of Freedom.” Starting at Lukiškių Square, a symbolic place for both oppression and remembrance, you’ll trace the path of Lithuania’s long road to independence. We’ll pause outside the Lukiškių Prison, once a tsarist jail and later a KGB holding site, now a cultural space that still carries the weight of history.

    The tour continues past the Lithuanian Parliament (Seimas), a symbol of restored independence and the scene of the nation’s defiant stand during the 1991 January Events.

    Finally, you’ll explore the KGB Museum (Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights)—once the actual headquarters of the Soviet secret police. Inside, descend into interrogation cells, visit execution chambers, and learn the personal stories of those who resisted. After the guided portion ends, you’re welcome to continue exploring the museum on your own.

    The walking tour is approximately 2 km long.
