General presentation
Panevėžys
Centre-north cultural city with contemporary art, theatre and regional railway heritage.
To understand what Panevėžys is, you must look at Senvagė, Juozas Miltinis Dramatic Theatre and Aukštaitija narrow-track railway. These places give us a view of a territory marked by urban life, heritage and riverscapes and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Place indismissible
Senvagė
Senvagė transforms an old arm of the Nevėžis into a green walk in the centre of the Panevėžys The sculptures, walkways and lawns create a very daily space, where you can see the city living as much as the urban landscape reflected in the calm water.
Place indismissible
Théâtre dramatique Juozas Miltinis
The dramatic theatre Juozas Miltinis bears the name of the director who gave to Panevėžys The facade and posters already say this tradition, but the place makes sense one evening of performance.
Place indismissible
Chemin de fer à voie étroite d’Aukštaitija
In Panevėžys, the narrow-track railway keeps a railway station, old equipment and the memory of a network that connected cities and countryside. The excursions to Anykščiai offer a slow journey, punctuated with fields, forests and stops that still feel the rural rail.
