Absolutely unusual view of the church, interior equipment, and guide stories - fascinating. Church-supervised visitors can tell a lot, can be escorted to the crypt or church treasure, and to the church tower.

You can walk around the place even if the musem is closed. It takes at least 30 min to see everything just from the outside - and it’s nice to go after hours - less crowded and you get to see it anyway. The area is large, clean and cared for. From the top of the fort (it looks like a little hill) there is a nice view over the city, though it’s a very sad place, knowing that tens of thousands souls ceased the exist here, and the remains lay under your feet. P.S. Dogs are not allowed at all, and there are no trash bins on the site.

This is worth the trip - but make sure the museum is open because the people who work there are passionate about sharing what really happened in this spot. It is a beautiful and peaceful park, take your time to walk around and really think about what happened here and the memorials that have been put in place to remember the 100,000 people who lost their lives here.

Chiune Sugihara memorial museum is an institution dedicated to commemoration of the deeds of Japanese consul Chiune Sugihara. He was working in Kaunas in 1939-1940 and is mostly remembered for saving more than 6000 Jewish refugees.
What Sugihara did was exceptional especially knowing that his honor and respect To his superiors could have been tarnished in his society. Remember that if his wife did not push and support him saving Jews, would Sugihara still have done it?
