The Europos Parkas is a museum and a sculpture park of international and contemporary sculpture, conceptual and installation art and land art in Joneikiškės in Vilnius in Lithuania .

The 50 hectare sculpture park was founded by the Lithuanian sculptor Gintaras Karosas in 1991. The sculpture park gained international fame primarily through the work of the US installation artist Dennis Oppenheim . Since 1999, a sculpture symposium and other cultural events (such as poetry spring, artists' meetings and conferences) have been held every year. In 2008 the museum's activity was recognized as an important cultural project for the state (by decision of the Government of Lithuania ).
