You will start the tour at the Klaipėda Cruise Ship Terminal, specifically, at the Childhood Dream (lith. Vaikystės svajonė) sculpture, which depicts a boy with a dog, viewing departing and arriving ships. From there you will move towards one of the most important attractions of the old town - the Castle Museum. It is a true treasure-house of history: exhibits of the museum will ‘narrate’ the history of the city, its development, the origin of the name, the past of the castle itself, and its significance at that time and now. In the museum, you will find out who ruled Klaipėda, see unique archaeological finds, documents, traditional 17th-century clothing and a host of other interesting exhibits that evoke curiosity and illustrate historical events. A special aura of the Castle Museum is created not only by the abundance of exhibits but also by the authentic poternas of the 16th and 18th centuries.
