ENThis article presents the investigations of Lithuanian partisan bunkers, discusses their results, and reveals the significance and potentialities of archaeological research. Special attention is paid to the investigation of the platoon bunker of Ignotas Nasutavičius (codename Bondaras) of the Didžioji Kova brigade in Pagrenda Forest (Elektrėnai Municipality). The archaeological excavation was carried out by the Kaišiadorys Museum expedition in summer 2013 (led by Livija Ivanovaitė).8 Here, the comprehensive data obtained from the archaeological investigation, written sources, and memoirs of the witnesses allowed to reconstruct the daily life of partisans and their last fight with the Soviet soldiers.
