    One of the key manors in western Lithuania, built in XIX century. Make sense to visit if you are splashing on the Baltic coast nearby. It also contains a winter garden, a rarity in Lithuanian manors.

    An interesting museum complex about the life of Tiškevičiai family. I found the photos interesting but the main exhibition quite disjointed.

    Kretinga Manor was constructed in the 16th. The manor was later owned and controlled by the Chodkevičius, Sapiega, Masalskis, Potockis and Zubovas families. Manor has the ethnography, the archeology exhibit, the famous Winter Garden exhibit and the exhibit introducing the history and culture of the manor. Overall is impressive Winter Garden, it looks like tropic paradise. On the 2nd floor is avialable restaurant. Tickets costs 4eur per person. Free parking is located near the ticket office. Firstly need to buy tickets at the tickets office, it's small white building near the parking. Near the manor is located several hectars park.

    Was good value for the ticket price. Pleasant grounds and interesting rooms to see. The best part is the cafe in the winter garden. A very beautiful place to have a coffee.

    A well preserved manor house with origins from the 16 century. A fine collection of paintings and old furniture with an attached winter garden that also houses a simple but pleasant restaurant. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. There is an Ethnological museum on the other side of the road and pleasant cafe. Impressive park with large well maintained oak trees.

    They have a great selection of exhibitions on the site. Have a great botanical garden inside, but unfortunately it's now under reconstruction. But there was interesting native people history with interesting infographics and it's quite beautiful historical bracelets and body pendants and etc.

    Here you can find all history of Kretinga district, starting from first stone age artefacts to resistance war against soviets and KGB. Very rich interactive collection 👍

    Lovely winter garden. The museum itself lacks information connecting everything. But still a sight worth seeing.

    It is a Tishkevich property and a nice place to visit. Walking through the rooms of the castle, you will find a lot of historical items and paintings. Also, there is a winter garden with a pool with fish and turtles and a little café. Also, the territory around the museum is a beautiful park with some other little buildings, worth visiting.

👍👍 Gorgeous place, lots of greenery. Completely magical. There is also a cafe inside to sit down, have a coffee and admire the view. The winter garden is attached to a museum - there is one ticket for everything. Great way to spend an hour or two, certainly worththe detour from the seaside while travel...

👍 EN: It is interesting to look while walking around the park. However, there is not much more activity or interactivity here. When walking from the manor, there are no signs, it is difficult to find, you have to wander around the park a lot. LT: It's interesting to look while walking around the park...
