  • Very interesting museum. Free to enter and lots of exhibits. Not just about Lithuanian money but lots of European and USSR history too.

  • Not in the strict center but worth to go. You pay nothing to enter. Really modern museum. I love the part downstairs where you can weight yourself and see how much is your value in gold/silver/platinium.
  • Very interesting museum with information about Lithuania's history in both Lithuanian and English. Besides litas, they also have money from different countries around the world. It's free, and there aren't many people so it was a great experience.
  • Free entry (just my price point), plenty of information to read up about the history of currency in Lithuania and other parts of the world. Did not expect a coin pressed bookmakr for free, too. Not a big museum, but spent about an hour exploring its 2 levels. Definitely recommended if you've time.
  • Small but very nice museum. Very unique. The entrance is free. You get free tickets as soon as you go inside. The tour starts from downstairs. There is historical record of money till today. You'll see samples from around the world. Extremely organized museum. The historical descriptions are very informative. I was confused in the beginning but it was more than worth.
  • This place is amazing and well worth a visit! Staff are absolutely lovely and you can get a really nice little bookmark made. Great interactive exhibitions and about every note or coin you can imagine.
