Viļāni Local History Museum

Permanent displays at Viļāni Local History Museum give a glimpse into specific stages in the history of the town of Viļāni and its surroundings, creating an unforgettable atmosphere and a chance to get a sense of times gone by. Meanwhile, the showroom features the arts and crafts of both, locals and guests from afar.

Since dozens of pupils and other locals have participated in assembling the collection, its subcollections are truly diverse and seeped in memories of the culture, traditions and day-today-lives of people from Viļāni District.

Educational programmes developed by museum specialists help learners get a broader sense of specific fields of human activity in the district. Museum tour “The Historical Trail of Viļāni” will introduce you to the legacy of recent centuries.
