A must visit if you want to find out more about the Soviet and German occupation between the 40s till 90s here in Lithuania (which you definitely should if you're traveling here).

Don't miss the prison basement. You may wish you did after being there but experiences like this is a solemn reminder what people can do to each other - and that we can't let it happen again.

Definitely worth to visit,to know better history of crimes of USSR and modern Russia (thank you for exhibition dedicated to the Ru-Ua war 2022).Atmosphere in the former execution room is terribly real

Very interesting exposition about Forest Brothers (partisans), their life, art works, aspirations! But it could be more interactive, though.

Tons of info in English. Great museum on occupations by Nazis and Soviets of Lithuania.
Andrius IskauskasSeptember 23, 2012
A must see for every westerner. Maybe you'll start to see the Soviet regime more adequately

Don’t miss this museum, it’s one of the best in Vilnius!
Enguerran GregoireSeptember 12, 2015
Really important historical place in Vilnius. Expect two hours to see everything (a looot of explanations, also in english).
Ivan DobrićMay 15, 2018
Cool museum but a bit of biased descriptions of historical event.
Megan MastersJuly 8, 2018
Easy for history buffs to spend hours here. Overall, chilling review of a time that is a sad reality.

The prison and especially the execution chamber is quite memorable.
Carl GriffinNovember 28, 2015
Interesting to tour the cells & learn about the various torture techniques used.

Don't leave Vilnius without visiting this museum. How the Lithuanians were "liberated" from the Nazi's to get the same treatment from the KGB.
Geert MareelsNovember 16, 2013
Don't leave Vilnius without visiting the old KGB building. The orgsnized horror, or how Lithuania was liberated from the Nazi's and underwent the same torture for 45 years.

Go everywhere and take you time, minimum 2 hours. You will imagine, what some others lived.
Greg HollingsworthFebruary 19, 2018
Pay an extra €3 for the audio guide!
Sharon PeppardSeptember 27, 2018
You really should visit . The prison cells in the basement have me a cold shiver I felt like crying when I left
Martin LundMay 13, 2016
Richard, the guide was awesome

Horrifying... but definitely worth a visit

You can hear people's scream when you walk through the museum. It upsets me ...
Deividas RinkevičiusMarch 24, 2015
A quality exhibition and a nicely planned-out storyline of genocide history in Lithuania. Real Russian KGB prison in the basement. An interesting sight for both locals and tourists!

An important piece of history to be visited

Photos are not allowed, but if you're quiet and don't use a flash, they don't notice

Labai įdomus muziejus, rekomenduoju!
soshialMay 21, 2017
No information about Lithuanians that collaborated with Nazis and the Soviets. This is a Genocide Museum but only a single small room is dedicated to Holocaust. A bit biased, i would say.
Ksana M.January 23, 2016
Потрясающий музей. Очень рекордную заката экскурсию. Вход - 4 евро. Экскурсия - 20 евро на группу.
Вадим АбаносJanuary 8, 2017
Очень интересная экспозиция, позволяет многое осмыслить и увидеть с другой стороны в советской истории. Все жёстко и без прекрас, иногда становится жутко. Обязательно для посещения для понимания Литвы
Ann AnikeenkoAugust 7, 2016
Очень атмосферное место 😬 Жуткое и страшное! Но сходить и прочувствовать это стоит!
Andrey FedyaevApril 19, 2014
Интересные экспозиции, дух истории присутствует. Можно взять аудиогид на английском, чтобы связать окружающее с судьбами конкретных людей.
Anastasia ShumovetsJune 6, 2014
Сказать, что это место стоит посетить равно что ничего не сказать. Если вы решили посетить Вильнюс вы обязаны побывать здесь! Это реальность которая трогает до слёз и женщин, и мужчин.
Alex TalanovMarch 19, 2017
Отличный музей. Много информации, хорошее оформление залов. Тюрьма... жуть
Vadim MoskalevSeptember 13, 2013
В первом зале в видеоряде по фону в какой-то момент тихо заиграл Имперский марш из Звездных войн :)
Валерьянкин АOctober 6, 2013
Всем россиянам посетить!
Елена ХаликDecember 8, 2015
Это история. Страшная история, которую нужно знать

Buvusiuose KGB rūmuose, penkiasdešimt metų buvo planuojami ir vykdomi sovietų nusikaltimai. Galima apžiūrėti buvusį KGB kalėjimą, mirties nuosprendžių vykdymo patalpą, šiuolaikines ekspozicijas. Read more

Пропускайте 1 и 2 этаж и спускайтесь сразу в подвал - там самое интересное: тюремные камеры и комнаты пыток! Захватывает дух!
Gu LyaMay 10, 2015
Подвал жуткий, но к посещению обязателен.

Идем в катакомбы ыыы мама!

Кроме тюрьмы КГБ мало интересного.Куча писанины разной,много текста.Билет стоит 4€,но по студенческому можно за 1
Julls 🍀 Jools🐞March 10, 2015
С учетом того, что в Вильнюсе музеев нет, то этот очень даже ничего. Вход 2 евро. На максимум час занятие
Peter HellwegOctober 2, 2017
Das Museum erschlägt einen.
Игорь ПетербургJanuary 10, 2019
