The Lost Shtetl Museum in Šeduva welcomes visitors of all ages to explore a shared past that shapes our present and future.
Through photographs, town maps, written records, and video testimonies in which descendants of Šeduva’s Jews share stories of their families’ lives, the museum’s exhibitions recreate the world of the shtetl.
As visitors approach the museum building, the landscape gradually shifts in scale – from the expansive wetlands and fields to the more intimate garden spaces nestled between the museum volumes.
The museum is located in front of one of the few surviving remnants of the Šeduva Shtetl
community—the historic village cemetery.
Visit the museum on your own or with a group of up to 10 people. Admission to the museum is free.
