The oldest building in Panevėžys, located at Kranto St. 21, was built in 1614 as the archive of the Upytė district court. It is the first brick archive building in Lithuania, designed to ensure the security of documents. Over the years, the building's purpose changed, and in 1925, it became the location for the first museum exhibitions in Panevėžys. In 2007, the "Upytė Nobility" exhibition was opened, introducing visitors to the lifestyle and values of the nobility during the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The museum displays authentic items from the nobility, a coin treasure, estate photographs, portraits of landowners, and coats of arms. It also features a manor interior and an installation dedicated to Vladislovas Sicinskis-Čičinskis.
