About the tour
A barrel’s broken lid, into which a board game had been carved, was found on the territory of the Palace of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania. The board game pieces found by archaeologists in Kaunas Old Town can be viewed in the Kaunas Castle’s permanent exhibition. Today, we all are familiar with chess and draughts, but have you ever heard of quirkat? We invite you to explore with this interesting and quite easy board game and compete with your friends for the title of best strategist!
Learn about the history of strategy board games, see the game pieces found by archaeologists and learn how to play quirkat. This game builds information processing skills, critical and creative thinking, and memory.
This activity is also available in English and Russian.
