Kaunas Ninth Fort: A Journey Through Dark History

Kaunas Ninth Fort: A Journey Through Dark History

One of Lithuania's most sobering memorials: a 19th-century Tsarist fort that later became a Nazi execution site where tens of thousands of Jews were murdered.

A 75-minute private guided walk through the fort's three eras – imperial defence, interwar prison and Holocaust site – including the defensive wall walkway you cannot access alone.

Local tip: Buy your entrance ticket at the museum office before your guide arrives.
