Vilnius Signs of History: Long Way to Freedom

About this activity

Nowadays Lithuania - a small country near Baltic Sea, but in historical maps you can find it as the biggest country in the Europe, or not existing at all. What historical twists led it to today’s situation?

During this walking tour we will try to find an answer to tricky question: how Lithuania and Lithuanians managed to survive these whirlwinds of ages and come to today’s situation when the country, still under impact of 50 years soviet occupation, tries to blend into the economic and cultural space of Europe Union.

Though description may sound very serious and even formidable, this tour wouldn’t be a lesson of history - it will include both: brief review historical events and some small funny stories, related with visited places.
