An amber museum in the Tiskevicius palace in Palanga Botanical Park. The collection holds over 28,000 amber pieces, including unique inclusions with insect remains.
The Palanga Amber Museum operates in the neoclassical Tiskevicius palace, set in the beautiful Palanga Botanical Park. It is the largest amber museum in the Baltic States, preserving over 28,000 amber pieces and artifacts. The exhibition presents amber's origin, extraction history, artistic processing, and amber's significance in Baltic regional culture. Particularly valuable are exhibits with animal inclusions – insects, arachnids, and plants trapped in amber 50 million years ago. The palace and surrounding park with fountains, sculptures, and exotic plants form a harmonious ensemble. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions on the Lithuanian coast.
