"We restored all the decor and furniture according to photos of the house at the beginning of the 20th century," Jurate Cerniauskiene, director of the House of Signatories, told The Baltic Times.. "There is a copy of a table on which the declaration was signed. We are planning to open a cafŽ on the first floor soon."
