Exposition
In the beautiful valley of the Daugyvene river in an old rural area stretching for 18 ha, a village household museum is establishing. Buildings of farmsteads typical to the beginning of the 19th century are brought here from neighbor environs, i.e. dwellings, outhouses such as granaries, bathhouses, haybarns, threshing-floors etc. Side by side with the standing farmsteads of the Kleboniskes village, sometime places are under restoration. In the intended exposition on household a great heed will be paid to fences, which bring out originality of farmsteads. Old trees of village and thatched roofs render some mystery to the Museum, while the settled farmsteads in the territory of exposition and everyday’s life of their inhabitants return visitors to reality. The expositions on rural household equipped in the farm buildings carry back to the end of the 19th century. A bathhouse is in operation. The expositions contain collections of jars, manual balances, butter-beaters, bread peels, flax combs, motors, a tractor made in 1
926. The windmill built in 1884 is operating in the village.
