Have you ever wondered what kind of world M. K. Čiurlionis saw? Which places inspired his mystical paintings and unique music? Where did his childhood unfold? Where did he meet his wife and spend the most creative years of his life?

The Čiurlionis Trail is not only a route through the most important places of the artist’s life, but also a journey into the world of his creativity, where nature becomes a symphony and landscapes turn into a fairy tale. It is an invitation to travel, to discover, and to experience Lithuania through the legacy of one of the country’s most outstanding artists.

The excursion “Čiurlionis Trail: Palanga Route” invites you to discover Palanga and the story of Čiurlionis hidden within it.

The Tiškevičiai family, counts who once ruled the Palanga resort, bore the “Leliva” coat of arms and the motto “Deligas quem diligas!”—which means “Choose whom you love!”. This motto still reflects the spirit of Palanga today. Following this route, we will not only trace the footsteps of Čiurlionis, Sofija, and those connected to them, but also explore the many forms of love that blossomed both in the resort of that era and in the lives of our protagonists.

The route features not only carefully selected places and landmarks reminiscent of Čiurlionis’ time, but also contemporary signs dedicated to the artist’s memory and work. Locals can always share more stories, so you will also find recommendations from Palanga residents offering experiences related to Čiurlionis. We suggest combining this route with those in the Plungė district.
