Create an itinerary including Devil's Museum

Fortified with artifacts and pieces donated by visitors, Devil's Museum houses more than 3,000 displays of devil depictions from cultures and regions across the globe. Originally begun by collector Antanas Zmuidzinavicius in his own home, the museum formed as a tribute after his death. Stop by the facility and explore three stories of artwork, focused primarily on carvings and sculptures featuring devils and other similar creatures of legend. Note that many are carved or grafted onto simple household items, giving them a personal quality. Be sure to keep an eye out for Zmuidzinavicius' own artwork, often illustrating ghastly scenes of violence and punishment doled out by devils upon those that have deceived; these are housed in an exhibit along with other devil-themed works from the nations of the former Soviet Union.

This museum is worth to visit if you have about two hours of time. You will see many items from different parts of the world that are well organized and descriptions are informative.

Simply stunning and unique There are three floors of unique stories, combines with a collection of devil effigies, this is one of the few museums that I dare say is in a class of it's own The first floor represents the artist and the collection he gathered over time, along side a separate section of the museum that is dedicated to his work and goes into further detail about him The second floor was about the people of Lithuania donating their crafts to the museum with a sprinkling of stories around witches, humans and animal interactions with the devil The third floor contains lore about the devil from different countries and the differences between one countrie's depiction of the devil and another
