Dubrava arboretum, Botanical research center in Kaunas District, Lithuania.
The Dubrava Arboretum extends across 51.5 hectares of land, maintaining a collection of 2000 different types of trees and shrubs in organized sections.
The facility began operations in 1958 as part of the Dubrava Experimental Forest Enterprise, focusing on dendrology research during the Soviet period in Lithuania.
The arboretum contributes to Lithuanian botanical heritage by preserving native species and introducing international specimens for scientific documentation and study.
Visitors can access the arboretum through highway 1902, connecting the towns of Vaišvydava, Girionys, and Žiegždriai, with dedicated parking spaces near the entrance.
Three laboratory buildings constructed in 2006 support research activities, housing specimens of rare plants not found in other Lithuanian scientific institutions.
