RADVILIŠKIAI VILLAGE BAKERY

On the outskirts of Panevėžys, in the village of Radviliškiai, farmers Albinas and Audronė Kisielius bake bread according to the old Lithuanian traditions, and organise educational activities at their homestead. Everyone who comes can not only watch the process of bread making, but also touch it, knead the dough, breathe in the flavour of the sourdough starter, shape a loaf of bread, put it in the oven and take their own bread out of the bakery. During the session, participants are introduced to the long path of bread, depicted in the sculpture ensemble built in the homestead, and talk about the belief in the magical power of bread, which determines the harvest and human and family life.
