Names and variants

Skaudvilė cultural hall, Skaudviles kulturos namai

The current centre, not the regional museum

The official name is Skaudvilė Culture Centre, at 12 Žemaitės Street. Maps may still show the older label Skaudviles kulturos namai, but it points to the same cultural institution.

Skaudvilė Regional Museum is a different institution at 24 Tauragės Street. Both can fit one route, but their displays, hours and programmes must not be treated as one offer.

Events, arts groups and education

The centre organises cultural and educational activity and supports amateur-art groups. Its current list includes the folk-music group Dobilas and the children and youth folklore ensemble Inkstiliuks, among others.

The centre offers a 50-minute Skaudvilės babos meduoliniai žvirbliukai activity for pupils in years 1-8. Dates, group size and booking terms can change, so a school visit must be arranged in advance.

Pine trees and an outdoor audience area

The light-coloured building with a red metal roof stands among mature pines. Simple outdoor wooden benches give the grounds a recognisable event-courtyard character beyond the indoor hall.

The outdoor area is used when a particular programme is scheduled, and the building may otherwise be closed. Check the location and start time in the specific notice for a festival, film or concert.

Office hours and a practical visit

Office hours are Monday-Thursday 08:00-17:00 and Friday 08:00-15:45, with lunch 12:00-12:45. These hours apply to the administration, not permanent exhibition or auditorium access.

Visiting conditions depend on the particular event or education session. Check the programme, ticket arrangements, hall accessibility, and whether it takes place indoors or in the outdoor space before travelling.
