Panevežys is famous for its industry and invites you to discover the city of the beaten track! The oldest industrial company in the city, Kalnapilis, is the only company in Lithuania that has never stopped producing beer since its establishment, and the former soap factory with one tank was making as much as 3,000 kilograms of soap per day. Over time, and as circumstances change, some places previously used for industry are now opening their doors to culture as well.
In 2020, UAB Aukštaitijos Vandenys organised the exhibition Face of Water and provides educations in its underground reservoir.
