Abstract
On January 27, 1920, public higher education courses, known as the Higher Courses (Lith. Aukštieji kursai), were started in Kaunas, in the hall of the building of the Ministry of Education (which today houses Kaunas Maironis University Gymnasium). The school was founded a century ago and operated on a voluntary basis, and it became the forerunner of higher education in the independent state of Lithuania in the interwar period.
