Cover of the book by Dr. Alfonsas Eidintas,
“President of Lithuania: Prisoner of the gulag (A biography of Aleksandras Stulginskis).”
Aleksandras Stulginskis, the first constitutional president after Lithuania had declared its renewed independence on 16 February 1918, was kidnapped at his home by Stalinist forces in June 1941 and deported to a Siberian Gulag. After he was released from the inhuman captivity, he was still for years forced to live in Siberia's deep forests, until 1956. There, he built this log-cabin, which then for many years was home to Lithuania's former president and his wife Ona.
Lithuania’s President Aleksandras Stulginskis built this Siberian log cabin
by his own hands, living here with his wife Ona until 1956.
