Toy Museum
The Toy Museum – one of Vilnius' most unexpected and genuinely charming attractions – is tucked away on Šiltadaržio Street, in a quiet corner near the Old Town. Its collection of over 20,000 exhibits tells the story of the toy from 19th-century wooden figurines to Soviet-era tin cars and the first electronic games. Collection: A History of Childhood The museum holds one of the largest toy collections in the Baltic states. Exhibits are grouped by era and category: hand-crafted wooden toys, porcelain dolls with original costumes, spring-driven mechanical toys, tin vehicle models, and rare Soviet-period pieces. Each display case is a time capsule showing how childhood, material culture, and technology changed across generations. Educational Programmes The museum is known for its active educational programme. Families visiting with children can take part in themed workshops, guided tours, and learning sessions about toy-making and historical periods. Programmes are suited to children of different ages from pre-school to primary school. Setting and Atmosphere Housed in an authentic building away from the tourist trail, the museum has the atmosphere of a discovered secret – close to the city's main infrastructure but far from the crowds. It is a place people return to not for gleaming showcases, but for its warmth and genuine exhibits. Practical Information The museum is located on Šiltadaržio Street, near Vilnius Cathedral . Highly recommended for families with children and anyone looking to discover the authentic, less-visited corners of Vilnius.
