Exposition
In 1986, in the house where
the poet J. Kriksciunas - Jovaras had lived during the period of
1946-1967, a museum was established. The poet’s memorial rooms had been
equipped as well.
In 1995 the exposition ‘The World and Fates of Literature Creators’
was opened. It signified the beginning of Siauliai literary museum. In the
exposition many unique exhibits are accumulated, among them - the exhibits
that reflect the lives and creation of such Lithuanian writers as P.
Visinskis, Zemaite, G. Petkevicaite-Bite, Satrijos Ragana, M. Untulis, M.
Slanciauskas, M. Grigonis, J. Miliauskas-Miglovara, J. Janonis, K.
Korsakas, F. Kirsa, L. Jakavicius-Lietuvanis and others.
