Ethnographic homestead and celestial observatory

When you visit the Ethnographic Homestead and Celestial Observatory of the Molėtai Regional Museum , located in the village of Kulionys next to the Molėtai Astronomical Observatory and the Lithuanian Museum of Ethnocosmology, you will experience that here the sky truly descends to earth.

At the Ancient Celestial Luminaries Observatory, established on the edge of Labanoras Forest, near the restored Eternal Fire of our ancestors, you will immerse yourself in the secrets of ancient knowledge about celestial luminaries. You will experience the essence and power of the roots of modern astronomical science. You will learn how and why our distant ancestors observed celestial luminaries, how they perceived and evaluated time, divided their work, and controlled their destiny.
