Mini Lithuania in Ukmergė, Ukmergė Miniature Park
A map of Lithuania on former military grounds
The park occupies part of Ukmergė's redeveloped former military-town area at the junction of Vladas Reklaitis and Boleslovas Dirmantas streets. Its paths and green plots form a model of Lithuanian territory, with structures proposed by municipalities intended for geographically meaningful positions.
This is an evolving display, not a finished collection. Each participating municipality chooses a building to represent it and contributes to producing the model. The number of exhibits can therefore grow between visits.
From Smetona Manor to national architectural landmarks
The first models represented Antanas Smetona Manor in Ukmergė District and St Anne's Church in Skaruliai, Jonava District. They were followed by Vilnius Cathedral and bell tower, Kaunas Town Hall and Klaipėda's Old Mill Hotel.
By 2026, additions included Panevėžys's Stasys Museum, the Lithuanian Museum of Ethnocosmology, the Telšiai clock, Birštonas mineral-water pavilion, Dionizas Poška's Baubliai and Kaišiadorys Cathedral of the Transfiguration. Check the official municipal page for the latest list as the park continues to expand.
Photogrammetry, 3D models and recycled plastic
Production begins with data from the real building. Some models use photogrammetry, precise digital three-dimensional modelling and large-format 3D printers that build an object layer by layer. Printed elements are then finished and painted by hand.
Many models use durable recycled plastic suited to a second life. The collection does not apply one universal scale: dimensions respond to each building and its display location, so compare architectural details rather than the relative heights of different miniatures.
Free entry and respect for fragile details
The park is open throughout the year and ordinary admission is free. Daylight reveals small facade details best. A nearby fountain and drinking-water station may operate during the warmer season; verify their current dates and hours in municipal notices.
The models are for viewing, not touching, climbing or seating children on them. The municipality has reported broken details, so stay on the paths and photograph from a respectful distance. Video surveillance operates for property protection, public safety and order.
