This beautiful little shop tells the story of Amber--what it is, where it is found and how it is used. The downstairs display is clever and beautiful. The clerks were helpful and could speak English. Helpful for me! Worth a stop. And no charge. More

Everything you need to know about amber and Baltic amber in particular. Also, good shop on the 1st floor (the whole museum is situated in the basement). More

They gave a lot of good information especially how to tell if amber is real and the different colors of amber. Their prices were expensive. More

You get to see into amber 100M years old, with old fossils stuck in them. Then you get to taste amber flavoured vodka, also pretty cool. More

This museum was very interesting, but very small. They have a gift shop too, which sells amber jewellery and I think they are original amber jewellery. In the exhibition is amber of diffrent places of the world, not only lituanian and admission is free. More

The jewelry and other works made with amber on the entry level is fascinating,but also the museum downstairs is really a wealth of information if you are interested in amber. Many colors are represented here and the guides seem to be informed and able to answer many questions about this beautiful fossil tree resin. I highly recommend a stop here.... More
