This is nice place to spend weekend afternoon
It's a very attractive and rich piece of nature. There are plenty of springs and oaks. In the preserve the A.Pushkin Museum is located - an old wooden construction erected in 1867. The poet himself never visited this place, but his relatives used to walk throughout these outskirts. In ancient times, Markuciai oak tree forest was the summer place of the Dukes of Lithuania.

The Pushkin Museum was founded in the house of Varvara and Grigori Pushkin in the suburb of Markuciai. The Pushkin Museum consists of the estate house, 18 ha park with ponds, a family mausoleum, St Varvara Chapel and the bust of Pushkin. Six authentically furnished rooms of the end of the 19th century form the exposition. They document the genealogy, times and work of Alexander Pushkin, display some pieces of furniture that have the coat-of-arms of Pushkin’s family carved on them and monograms of Varvara Pushkina. Visitors can also see photographs of Markuciai estate and family photographs of Varvara and Grigori Pushkin, many household equipment and works of art of that time. The exposition also holds 21 books by Alexander Pushkin of 34 of his books published while the poet was still alive. Art, literary, photographic, numismatic, applied art and other exhibitions are regularly held at the Museum.
