Rima and Aelita are an absolutely fantastic information resource about the Jewish history in Vilnius and elsewhere in Lithuania. Lithuanian and in particular Vilnius History is complicated! So you cannot even expect a street name to be consistant. Russian, Polish, Soviet and Lithuanian names for the same street are not necessarily the same - this applies to family names, houses, businesses, and every aspect of life in Lithuania. These people know where to find what you are researching, and can cross the language barriers for you - my russian is non-existant ! We went in looking for my wife's Gt Grandfather - the response was 'who was he' yes I know about him - he lived........ The wife and I were amazed !
2. Republic of Uzupis Information Centre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 12 reviews
Created in 1997, Uzupis was born following the gathering of different artists. It's an independent republic in the heart of Vilnius. The goal was to create a place where people can meet in good spirits and discuss, create and express themselves freely. Feel free to visit the curiosity room, if you want to take advantage of many information, advice but also exhibitions. You will always be welcome !

The information center does not begin to describe the place. It is more of an artsy place (plenty of cards, art prints, magnets, other small-scaled souvenirs by local makers and artists available) on the bank of Vilnele river. The whole place has a great vibe, which includes broken pianos, sculptures, street art, and other hippie attributes outside the beautifully decorated red doors of the center. And friendly staff will make the most of your visit there.
