Tier 1 Operators ONLY ;-)

The National Museum at the Palace of the Rulers of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania is hosting an international exhibition “A Nation Who Has Went to War. Lithuanian Military Elite of the 13th – 14th Centuries ”, which presents to the cultural society, youth and foreign guests and military specialists a very significant and unique heritage of Lithuanian military culture, as well as the military elite itself, which significantly contributed to the formation and strengthening of the Old Lithuanian state. This international exhibition was to be opened by Lithuania on the State Day (Coronation of King Mindaugas of Lithuania), but the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic changed plans and gave the exhibition idea extra meaning - we meet this cultural event like elite soldiers fighting an invisible enemy.

The exceptional cultural, historical, diplomatic and political significance of the international exhibition is also emphasized by its special patronage, which was granted by the Ministers of National Defense of the Republic of Lithuania Raimundas Karoblis (until December 2020) and dr. Arvydas Anušauskas (since December 2020) and Commander of the Lithuanian Armed Forces Lieutenant General Valdemaras Rupšys.

Exclusive exhibits from museums in our country, as well as from the memory and scientific institutions of Belarus, Estonia, Germany and Italy have been collected for this international exhibition, which was held during a difficult period. All the exhibits of the exhibition reflect and testify to the time of the formation of the Old Lithuanian state and the expansion of Lithuanians recorded in written historical sources - the 13th – 14th centuries. Some of them reveal new contexts of archeological research, others - recent arrivals from medieval Lithuanian cemeteries, and others - unique artifacts with connections to Lithuanian military campaigns.
