        General Info
        Chicago is home to the largest Lithuanian community outside Lithuania. The Balzekas Museum of Lithuanian Culture is a must-see destination for visitors who want to learn more about this Baltic country, its rich culture, history, and the contributions of Lithuanian immigrants to Chicago and the United States. Current exhibitions include "No Home To Go To" about Baltic WWII refugees and "For Freedom" about Lithuanian-American efforts to help secure freedom, democracy, and self-determination for their ancestral homeland. The Museum's permanent collection features folk art, amber, rare books, maps, and medieval armor, harkening back to a time when the Lithuania was the largest country in Europe. The Museum's collection of 20th century Lithuanian art and photography is also noteworthy. The Library and Research center serves as a resource for scholars and those seeking genealogical services. The Gift Shop offers souvenirs, books, and amber jewelry.Chicago is home to the largest Lithuanian community outside Lithuania.
