Tips for Visiting Biržai Castle
- Aim for a morning visit in late spring or summer for the best light on the castle and the surrounding lake; weekday mornings will be noticeably quieter than weekends when local events attract families.
- Buy a combined ticket or check the museum opening hours in advance so you can time climbing the tower and visiting the permanent exhibitions-the tower climb gives the best panoramic view over the lake and bastions.
- After viewing the castle, follow the lakeside walk and the low-profile bastion paths-these give different angles for photography and are often less visited than the main courtyard.
