What makes the collection in Piniava special?
On Klemensas Sakalauskas’s homestead, a building constructed specifically for this purpose in 2005 houses gramophones, irons, jugs, butter churns and spinning wheels. The objects range from music-playing devices to everyday tools and vessels. This brings together different insights into technology and domestic life, rather than focusing on a single type of object.
A private collection of musical instruments and numerous antiques are also part of the museum. It is considered one of the largest private musical instrument collections in the Baltics. Among the individual items is an Edison phonograph, described as the world’s first sound-recording device. A NASH car is also part of the collection: it was made in the USA in 1931 and brought from there to Lithuania. There is also a dinosaur egg, said to be 70 to 80 million years old. The collection therefore includes a wide range of objects—from instruments and historical everyday items to this natural history specimen.
