In the center of the museum map of Palanga is the Amber Museum in the halls of the Tyszkiewicz Palace, built in 1897 by Franz Schwechten; there you can see rich collections of amber and rare inclusions that tell the history of the region. The Dog Museum with more than two thousand figures of “man’s best friend” is a place where simple objects become a source of emotion and nostalgia. The Antanas Monchis House-Museum presents contemporary art and a unique creative atmosphere that is rare for resort towns: it is one of the few sites dedicated to contemporary artists after the restoration of independence. In the vicinity of Palanga there are also small private collections and galleries that expand the overall picture of cultural life and make the routes more diverse.
The museum poster of Palanga is dynamic: the city hosts seasonal exhibitions and imported expositions, which increase the interest of tourists in the summer. Thematic projects are regularly replaced in the exhibition halls - from natural history collections of amber to contemporary art projects and author's presentations.
