The head office of Lietuvos bankas is located at the intersection of Gediminas Avenue and Totorių Street in the heart of Vilnius. Branch offices are situated on Žirmūnų and Žalgirio Streets in Vilnius, as well as at the intersection of Maironio and Kristijono Donelaičio Streets in Kaunas.
The building complex located in the centre of the capital city evolved between 1874 and 1966, with its central structure originally constructed for the Vilnius Land Bank in 1889, designed by architect Wiaczeslaw Sztejner. The late 19th-century interiors have undergone modifications but continue to reflect the architectural style of historicism.
In 2003, the Vilnius building was listed in the Register of Cultural Property of the Republic of Lithuania.
A monument to Vladas Jurgutis, the first Governor of Lietuvos bankas, stands in front of the building on Gediminas Avenue. This striking monument, created by sculptor Gediminas Piekuras, is made from 75,000 litas cent coins (an alloy of copper, zinc, and nickel) and weighs approximately 450 kilograms. The bust of Jurgutis is placed on a pedestal decorated with images of litas coins from both the interwar and modern periods.

The Kaunas building, constructed between 1925 and 1928, is a neo-classical masterpiece. Its interiors feature exquisite antiques, including vintage furniture commissioned by the bank and manufactured in Kaunas, as well as bespoke furnishings and lamps sourced from various Western European cities. The walls of the building are decorated with 20 paintings by celebrated Lithuanian artists from the interwar period, adding to its cultural value.
In 2003, the Kaunas building was declared a cultural monument, becoming a key example of Kaunas modernism architecture, which was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2023.
