Nemuno7

Landscape design object Nemuno7 is a new attraction point for everyone interested in the intangible cultural heritage of Nemunas river. While being completely unprecedented in Europe, this project is significant for both river and technical heritage. At the same time it stands in perfect harmony with modern cultural infrastructure, contemporary architecture and technologies. Nemuno7 will be built from an old ship/ dredger made in Czechoslovakia in 1965. The dredger will be reconditioned and transformed into a multifunctional creative space for local community, as well as tourism, culture, art and business sectors. It will serve as a venue for concerts, exhibitions, conferences and other events; a laboratory for scientific, cultural and creative industries; a local design shop. This versatile space will also be appealing to observe from the outside: both while standing on the shore or cruising by it in the river. Nemuno7, which will be situated on the left bank of Nemunas in Zapyškis (Kaunas district), is a part of ‘Kaunas European Capital of Culture 2022‘ programme.
