Why? In accordance with the artist's wishes, visitors are allowed to touch the sculptures!\r\nThe building of the Antanas Mon\u010dys Museum was built in the early 20th century by Vladas Navickas, the son of Count Ti\u0161kevi\u010dius' estate manager.\r\nUnlike most memorial houses and museums, the house of A. Mon\u010dys has no direct connection to the artist himself.\r\nAntanas Mon\u010dys (1921\u20131993) was a modernist sculptor from Lithuania who fled to the West during World War II. Although Mon\u010dys never lived in Palanga, he grew up nearby in Mon\u010diai, in the Kretinga district, and always admired this resort town. The second floor of the museum displays works donated to Lithuania after the artist's death \u2013 over 200 sculptures, drawings, graphic works, collages, whistles, and masks, which were previously exhibited in the library building of the former J\u016brat\u0117 sanatorium. The A. Mon\u010dys House-Museum opened in 1999, and its reconstruction was supervised by architect Petras Lap\u0117. In 2010, the building was granted the status of a cultural property of local importance.\r\nWhen adapting the building for use as a museum, exhibition spaces were created, and stylized fragments of the sculptor's works were used on the exterior: instead of the horses characteristic of traditional Lithuanian decoration, the main fa\u00e7ade now features elements of illustrations created by A. The first floor of the museum serves as an exhibition hall with a constantly changing exhibition. The first floor of the museum serves as an exhibition hall with a constantly changing exhibition.
