Opening of the exhibition “Traces of Life: Paleontological Finds in Lithuania”

Do you know that millions of years ago in the territory where Lithuania is today, there were shallow seas full of life? Their secrets remain preserved in fossils – silent but incredibly eloquent witnesses of the past.

All are invited to the presentation of an exhibition to be led by Dr. Darja Dankina, NRC paleontologist. Darja is a scientist who can turn complex science into an engaging story about the ancient world and the past of Lithuania.

Date: 14 January 2026
Time: 17:00
Venue: National Visitors’ Centre

The exhibition will feature unique fossil finds discovered in Lithuania more than 50 years ago and preserved to this day in the collections of Nature Research Centre. This is a rare opportunity to see our country from a completely different angle – as a place where life once thrived.

Embark on a journey through time and discover what life frozen in stone can tell you.
The event is free of charge. We look forward to seeing you!
