Vilnius antique and vintage shops are often called "hidden treasures," but in reality, they're easy to find if you know the exact addresses. The harder questions are: how much will a good find cost, and when is the shop actually open? In this guide, addresses, opening hours, and prices have been verified for summer 2026, so your stroll through the Old Town isn't just guesswork.
Carefully Curated Vintage Boutiques
De'Žavu Vintage Boutique, located at Šv. Ignoto g. 3, is open Monday to Friday from 11 AM to 7 PM, Saturday from 12 PM to 7 PM, and Sunday from 12 PM to 4 PM. This is a curated women's clothing store where every item is hand-picked, from vintage silk blouses to leather handbags. Since the collection is small and items are unique, it's worth stopping by several times a season, rather than expecting a find to wait until your next visit.
Šarka (UAB "Lėta mada"), at Lukiškių g. 3, is a different kind of store: it blends Lithuanian minimalist design from natural fabrics (wool, silk) with carefully selected vintage accents. An important detail when planning your visit: the shop is only open on weekdays, from 10 AM to 5 PM, and closed on weekends. So, it's a weekday visit spot, not for spontaneous Saturday shopping. Before you go, it's convenient to browse their assortment on sarkashop.lt or call +370 687 20163.
Savva Vintage & Arts, at Šv. Stepono g. 1, operates from Tuesday to Saturday, 12 PM to 7 PM (closed Sundays and Mondays). The shop owner, a choreographer, has collected items for over three decades, so alongside vintage clothes and handbags, you'll find ballet slippers, opera hats, old perfume bottles, and frames on the shelves. This is a place not for quick shopping, but for a longer wander among the stories of its objects.
Humana Vintage: How the Five-Week Pricing Cycle Works
Vilnius has two Humana Vintage stores, both open Monday to Friday from 10 AM to 7 PM, and Saturdays and Sundays from 10 AM to 4 PM. The store at Trakų g. 16 is more curated, focusing on vintage and leather goods, while the store at Tilto g. 10/8 is larger and geared towards everyday wear.
Prices here change according to a clear five-week cycle: the first week brings a new collection, so prices are highest, but the selection is best. The second and third weeks see the first discounts applied, often 30 to 50 percent off. The fourth and fifth weeks kick off a sale, with prices dropping from 4 to 3, 2, and finally down to 0.50 Eur per item. If you're looking for a specific size or color, it's worth visiting during the first week; but if anything interesting for cents will do, the best time is at the end of the cycle.
More Than Just Clothes: Antique Shops and Užupis' Treasures
Užantis, at Užupio g. 1, is a small antique shop and flea market all in one, open daily, approximately from 12 PM to 7 PM. Here you'll find old maps, jewelry, postcards, coins, paintings, and silver cutlery, with prices individually marked for each item, so bargaining is common.
For those seeking more substantial furniture and artworks, a stroll along Dominikonų and Trakų streets is worthwhile. Vilniaus antikvaro centras (Vilnius Antique Center, Dominikonų g. 16) and Senasis Kuparas (The Old Chest, Dominikonų g. 14) offer classic furniture, paintings, and silver items, while Ferola Vintage (Trakų g. 15) specializes in interior details: antique lamps, small furniture pieces, paintings, and dishes. These shops operate on individual schedules, often shorter than large shopping centers, so it's worth calling ahead before visiting.
Sunday Flea Market Has Moved: New Address at Lukiškės Prison
For many years, the Sunday flea market was held in the courtyard of the Teachers' House, Vilniaus g. 39, but that era has ended: "Blusturgis" (the Flea Market) has moved to the courtyard of Lukiškių kalėjimas 2.0 (Lukiškės Prison 2.0), Lukiškių skg. 6. If you last visited a few years ago and still head to the old address on Vilniaus Street, you won't find the market there.
The 2026 season runs from May until autumn, every Sunday, from 12 PM to 4 PM. Entry for visitors is free; only vendors pay by purchasing a participation ticket. Goods for sale include vinyl records, old books, dishes, clothing, accessories, and handicrafts by local creators. Since the courtyard is part of the former prison complex, it's worth visiting Lukiškių kalėjimas 2.0 itself before or after the market, as it now hosts tours and cultural events.
What Shopping Really Costs
If your budget is limited, Humana Vintage during the fourth or fifth week of its cycle allows you to put together an entire outfit for less than 10 Eur, though the selection is reduced by then. A medium budget, around 20 to 60 Eur per item, is suitable for the curated collections at De'Žavu or Šarka, where each item is already selected and usually in good condition. In the antique shops on Dominikonų and Trakų streets, the price depends on the specific item: a small silver piece or postcard might cost a few euros, while a larger piece of furniture or a painting could be several hundred. At the Flea Market, prices are negotiable, so cash always comes in handy.
Practical Tips for Treasure Hunters
- Check opening hours in advance: Not all shops are open on weekends (Šarka is closed Saturdays and Sundays), and small antique shops often have individual schedules.
- Cash is important: At the Flea Market and small antique shops, cards aren't always accepted, and cash often opens the door to negotiations.
- Inspect before buying: Especially at the end of Humana's cycle, check seams, buttons, and stains, as items at such low prices are rarely returnable.
- Follow the cycle: If you're looking for a specific size, choose Humana during the first week after a new collection arrives, rather than at the end of the pricing cycle.
- Combine with other plans: The Flea Market is now held at Lukiškių kalėjimas 2.0, so a Sunday visit can easily be combined with a tour or lunch at nearby Vilnius restaurants.
Vilnius's vintage and antique scene is changing faster than most travel guides suggest, so it's worth checking the address or opening hours before you go, especially if your trip is specifically planned around one shop. For more shopping ideas, you can find them in the Vilnius shops list.
