The KGB, state security committees always possessed the latest and the most innovative technology and professionally trained specialists in their field, officers, and agents. Obsolete KGB surveillance technique used to be strictly destroyed by signing special reports, while part of the technology was transferred to the military.

    Fantastic exhibit!
    This is such an interesting place to visit, filled to the brim with soviet and KGB memorabilia. It is like Aladdin’s cave!! Make sure to email or ring ahead and ask what times they have available, as they do not have regular opening hours, I think they just open when they have enough people for a tour. Monika was an absolutely fantastic tour guide who was very engaging and I learned a lot from her. Unfortunately, there were some children on the tour who were not on their best behaviour and kept interrupting Monika, running around, touching some of the rarest items and it was a little frustrating to see them behave so poorly, but Monika did such a great job and was super friendly. Maybe there should be an age limit on visiting?

    Excellent tour by a brilliant guide.
    I had a interesting tour by Monika. I learned lots about the Soviet culture of the time, Lithuanian history and other tidbits. It is one of the most unique tours I have been on. The collection of masks, spy craft tools and even screen used props from the Chernobyl TV series were amazing to see. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to know more about the dreaded KGB and had an interest in dark tourism. You will not be disappointed. It is a special tour though so you will need to contract them to arrange a date as it is not a normal museum with regular opening hours.
