A travelling exhibition on the events of 1939-1941, prepared in 2006. The documents and photographs on display provide an insight into the circumstances surrounding Lithuania’s loss of independence, the painful experience of the first Soviet occupation: the beginning of the repressions, the Sovietization of the country, and the tragedy of the Black June, when, within a matter of days, some 18,000 people, including many elderly people and children, were packed into cattle wagons, and expelled from their homeland.
