Kaunas, Lithuania skyline: the 44 most iconic buildings and best views in Kaunas

Kaunas Castle is a wonderful place for a walk. In the evening it’s beautifully lit, which makes the atmosphere really charming. The whole area felt very safe, and I also noticed there are surveillance cameras nearby, which adds to the feeling of security. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Kaunas!

A historic castle very nicely preserved, clean and surrounded by green areas and walking trails around it. Minutes away from the old town of Kaunas. Worth visiting!

Kaunas Castle is a beautiful and historic spot right in the heart of the city. The red-brick fortress looks amazing, and the museum inside gives a nice glimpse into Kaunas’ past. The area around it is great for a walk, with lovely river views and a calm atmosphere. Staff are friendly, and there are often cool events or festivals happening nearby. Definitely worth a visit!

A very nice castle, but quite small once you get inside and with status you need to be careful as they are quite steep and you will need to wait for people or to go upstairs or downstairs as you can do both at the same time as it’s quite narrow. Worth a visit tho. The prices for tickets is ok too £4 for adult, but for students, kids, retired and disabled people gets it’s cheaper or does not pay at all which is nice.

Nice little exposition,well restored old castle,loved the dungeon prison part,great view from top level of the tower.Small but interesting museum,stairs at the tower are steep and narrow but there is another wider exilt on level two.Would recommend to spend couple hours exploring castle and surrounding old wall grounds.

Nice park to walk around. You can walk up to have a view. Castle itself has few remains, so not that much to visit. Has a museum indoor in the tower (paid entrance)

It's one of the oldest buildings in Kaunas. Nice to relax and look around. I wouldn't suggest getting tickets.

Kaunas Town Hall is a must-visit if you’re exploring Lithuania’s second-largest city! Known as the “White Swan” for its elegant architecture, this historic building sits in the heart of Kaunas Old Town. It has served many purposes over the centuries—city hall, prison, and even a wedding venue! Today, it houses the Kaunas City Museum, where you can learn about the city’s rich history. Take a stroll around the charming square, grab a coffee at a nearby café, and soak in the atmosphere of this beautiful and lively spot!

Close on Monday and overseeing a torn-up square (large renovation works ongoing August 2025). Not worth the effort

Most visited places in Kaunas , old town bars , cafes and restaurants, you can also find here museums art shops and other interesting sites

The Kaunas Town Hall is a beautiful and impressive building – a real highlight in the heart of the Old Town. The architecture is elegant, and the surrounding square is full of charm and history. It’s a great spot for photos and a nice place to sit and take in the atmosphere. Unfortunately, during our visit, the building was under renovation, so we couldn’t fully enjoy or explore it. It’s understandable that maintenance is necessary, but it was a bit disappointing not to see it in its full glory. Still, it’s a lovely landmark and definitely worth stopping by if you’re in Kaunas – hopefully next time without scaffolding!

10 euros, theres an app and i just cant make it work, not a whole lot, you can climb up the tower and take picture through windows ... Ac was nice.

I didn't visit the museum, but the town hall itself is a very beautiful building. The centerpiece of Kaunas Old Town

A 16th century Town hall situated on a nice square, surrounded by historic buildings. Really nice, if just to stroll around and look at the buildings and the people passing by.

If you're into folklore, this is a wonderful place. Lithuanian devils are more like trolls or goblins than the typical judeo-Christian enemy. There's so much fun in here, with lots of stories and historical context provided. You'll learn about witches and cows and blacksmiths too.

A visit to Kaunas isn't complete without an hour spent at the Velnio Muziejus 😈. As the only museum of its kind globally, its very existence speaks to its authenticity and unique cultural significance. ​The collection, which began with Lithuanian artist Antanas Žmuidzinavičius and has grown to over 3,000 pieces through international donations, is truly global. On its three floors, you'll see how different cultures interpret the devil—from mischievous Lithuanian folk carvings to intricate masks and sculptures from countries like India, Mexico, and Japan. This diversity provides a fascinating, multifaceted look at the mythological creature worldwide. ​Beyond the static exhibits, the museum incorporates unique art expositions, featuring both contemporary fine and applied arts. These often include creative video shows and modern interpretations that bring a fresh, artistic perspective to the ancient themes. The museum is small enough that you can easily navigate the entire collection in an hour or so, making it a perfect, wonderfully bizarre, and insightful stop if you're in the area. It’s a great piece of Lithuanian eccentricity!

Great place to see. The devil's museum depicts a lot of Lithuanian follow about devils and depicts the life of Antanas Zmuidzinavicius. His garden and there bottom floor had private collection at pieces. It would be nice if the type would tell you too go from the second floor devils to the third floor devils, then to the second floor apartment. Another great addition would be that the listening app would have different playback speeds.

Really interesting one. If you have extra time it’s worth to see. There’s nothing much traditional or historical in that exhibition. However if you have time and got bored in Kaunas :) you can spend your time here.

An excellent museum, really unusual. The exhibits were well laid out and each exhibition case was well documented in Lithuanian and English Some great information and interesting mythology from around the world. Took us a couple of hours to see everything but we do read every word! Would recommend a visit. Note: We read a review that said start from the top floor and work down. iMHO - disregard this and work your way up!! Good value for money, nice staff, clean toilets. Definitely qoryh a visit when in Kaunas.

Not what I was expecting at all. A spell binding experience of beautiful sculptures, fascinating stories and traditions. A must visit if in Kaunas.

Very interesting museum! It was a private collection from a Lithuanian important person, whom was also a painter. I paid 8€ (full price) and I found it very fair, there are 3 floors of masks and different itens related and also another rooms with paintings and "rooms displays" with furniture's that belonged to him. I don't remember seeing any elevator so I am not sure if it is accessible, I would recommend giving them a call before. The navigation was easy with a lot of signals/plates with details and descriptions. I spent around 1h20 to see everything in a slow pace, stopping for 1-2 minutes in some spots and just walking by in others. This museum is just across the street from Kaunas Museum which is also worth the visit.

The person at the reception seemed to begrudgingly sell me a ticket. I didn't realise there would be no context on Čiurlionis without buying the audio guide. It's mostly a shame because he is little known outside of Lithuania. The presentation of information throughout the museum is exceptionally variable in general. There was supposedly a new exhibition but it appeared to be closed. It would be useful to have a guided route through the museum to avoid missing things.

Had a fantastic time at the art museum. M.K. Čiurlionis is the most renowned artist in Lithuania, and there’s even a street named after him in Vilnius. Everyone should see his artwork while visiting the country. Although the layout of the museum isn't completely straightforward, it's manageable. About two hours is enough time to see everything.

I really liked the museum. I went on the last Sunday of the month (museums in Lithuania are free them) and I definitely recommend coming early right when they open. I came slightly after 10 and when I was leaving around 11:30, the place was really filling up. It is a very interesting and engaging museum. The artist is quite fascinating as he had many talents. It is also great for families and kids since it has a little play corner and some fun activities. I also bought some beautiful postcards in the gift shop to send to my grandparents.

Very nice museum with more then one exhibitions. There was one about Lithuan history, another one related to stars, galaxy and planets, another one related to the ocean. It was a very good visit and I totally recommend it. I paid 10€ (full price) and I found it very fair. The navigation can be a little confusing as there are many rooms and walls with exhibitions but is not like a maze. I spent around 2h to see it all, at a medium pace, stopping for 1-2 minutes in some spots and just walking by in others. I don't remember seeing elevators so I am not sure if it is accessible, I would give a call before, if you need it.

I'm new to Lithuania, so Ciurlionis is unknown to me. I can't believe he did so much in so short a time. A lot of his works look like they could be 70s SF novel covers or heavy metal album covers, and to me that's the highest compliment.

A must-see museum of art named after a famous and prolific painter, writer, composer Čiurlionis, who spoke Polish all his life and fell in love with a young girl, Sofija. In the souvenir shop you can get two books of Čiurlionis letters in original Polish with a translation into Lithuanian and lots of additional information on life and people of his time, poets, painters, writers and other artists, and family members, Warsaw, Petersburg, Palanga, Vilnius, but most of all, about his beloved Sofija.

If you had only time to visit one museum when in Kaunas, then I would say it the National art museum. The building is a treasure itself. From Liberty Avenue is is just a very short walk away. The access is easy and checking both opening times and changing exhibitions before a visit is recommendable. Admission is 10euros. Enjoy!

On the outskirts of Kaunas, on a peninsula in the Kaunas Reservoir, stands the Pažaislis Monastery. The monastery and church were built between 1667 and 1712 by Camaldolese monks on the orders of Krzysztof Zygmunt Pac, Chancellor of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The complex is the largest monastery in Lithuania and the Church of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary with its 54-metre-high dome is one of the most beautiful Baroque buildings in the country. The monastery was transferred to the Russian Orthodox Church by Tsar Nicholas I after the Polish-Lithuanian Uprising of 1831. After three years of vacancy, the monastery came into the hands of the Sisters of St. Casimir in 1920, and the Catholic tradition was revived. Until the sisters were expelled by the communists in 1948 and the monastery was used for various purposes. In 1992 the monastery was returned to the sisters, who now manage the monastery and restore it to its former glory. In the church there is a statue of the Virgin Mary and Child that is considered miraculous. It was a gift from Pope Alexander VII to Krzysztof Pac, who donated the statue to the monastery to increase its appeal. The statue still attracts pilgrims and every year on 2 July a solemn procession with the statue of the Virgin Mary takes place. The monastery and church are quite far from the centre, but are easily accessible by bus (or car), so visit it!

A beautifully maintained monastery – very clean, peaceful, and impressive. There is plenty of parking space, and the surroundings are perfect for a calm walk and reflection. Definitely worth a visit!

Enjoyed the church and history. Quite small so you don't need a huge amount of time. You can have a walk by the lake if the weather is nice..

Mind-blowing experience, well worth the 5 euro student admission fee to experience the crypt and one of the largest marble structures in the region. Highly recommend

Majestic inside, beautiful marble pillars, intricate artwork, aromatic roses, set in peaceful grounds.

A spectacular cultural and architectural gem. Go for the breathtaking Baroque beauty and stay for the engaging historical journey in the exhibition!

Great place to explore culture, history and concerts. Excellent restaurant on place too

A bit mystical building in Kaunas) You're strolling through the Old Town and suddenly notice this house. It amazes with a strange gothic architecture and its rich history. This building was built as merchant's office. Then it eas sold to Jesuits and was used as a chapel and school. You can get inside now and take a look at this building but it could be closed temporarily. Anyway, it's a must-see attraction in Kaunas)

One of the few surviving Gothic-style houses. Only this time I noticed similar decorative elements to those on St. Anne's Church in Vilnius. You could call this house's style "Flamboyant Gothic." It's eye-catching and captivating. A very beautiful house.

The House of Perkūnas is a beautiful and historically significant building in the heart of Kaunas. Its Gothic architecture stands out and adds character to the Old Town. It’s definitely worth a quick visit if you’re exploring the area. While the facade is impressive and well-preserved, the overall experience didn’t quite have a “wow” effect. It’s more of a visual landmark than a place to spend a lot of time, unless you’re deeply interested in local history or architecture. Still, a charming and elegant stop on any Kaunas walking tour!

Magnificent building. It is a must see during visit in Kaunas. Just take few steps from central market and you travel in time to medieval times. Whole facade is very astonishing with it's intricate decorations. Maybe the surroundings isn't medieval at all, the house defends itself.

Amazing looking old building, I couldn't enter, as it was not open, but beautiful to see even from outsida.

Unfortunately the visit to the house is possible only with appointment during summer. The external design is really interesting as it is has a lot of details which differentiate it from other gothic buildings with red bricks in Kaunas.

A beautiful building.

One of the oldest brick churches in Kaunas and a good example of Lithuanian Gothic) Its full name is Vytautas'the Great Church of the Assumption of the Holy Virgin Mary. It was built on the bank of the river Neman around 1400. You can find this temple in the Old Town, not far from Perkunas' house. The church looks better outside than inside because of a modest interior decoration. The church is bright and even cute. You feel tranquility here. My recommendation)

Beautiful church right by the main bridge in Kaunas. Definitely worth the visit

The view is beautiful. You can see the Neman in all its beauty. A very popular wedding destination. There’s always someone taking pictures in the cobbled streets around it as well. Very atmospheric!

Seen from outside. Looks great

Nice church, we were the only visitors when entered. The river views aside the church are beautiful. Very relaxing spot.

Catholic church of Vytauto (Catholic church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary; lit. Vytauto Didžiojo bažnyčia; Švč. Mergelės Marijos Ėmimo į dangų) is a Catholic temple in the Old Town of Kaunas - one of the oldest in the city. The temple is included in the Register of Cultural Property of the Republic of Lithuania and is protected by the state.

Went on the bridge opposite to the church at night and I can say that the view of it is stunning. I haven't seen the church from the inside.

What a wonderful mass the coir was outstanding the preaching was next level. I enjoyed the mass during my weekend trip to Lithuania. If I have to say about the architecture it was so perfectly carved and well maintained. Sunday morning mass the church was almost all mix of young and elderly what a great community. There were sovereign gifts too.

Kaunas Cathedral is a stunning mix of Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance styles, making it one of Lithuania’s most impressive churches. It’s perfect for a peaceful visit—just be mindful of church services. The main altar and side chapels are beautiful, and it’s worth exploring the nearby Old Town afterward. Remember to dress modestly, and photography might be restricted. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, and take your time soaking in the history!

Beautiful church, the sculptures are very impressive, the entrance is free, totally recommend it! The cathedral basilica of St. Peter n St. Paul left me which open mouth..

The few times I visited Kaunas I always made sure to see it. It's one of the most beautiful cathedral I saw in my life! The colors and atmosphere are so nice inside and we can really feel peaceful once inside

This church has retained its solemn Gothic appearance from the outside. Decorative elements from later periods are quite well integrated inside. The paintings were painted by the Italian Andriolli. He came to the city with Napoleon's army. It seems like a love story and he stayed in Kaunas. I'm not sure if all the pictures are his. You can check it yourself. And during services, listen to the powerful organ.

Very beautiful church that doesn’t ask for any payment to enter. We happily donated 2euros. Please don’t light candles on the seats. The old staff has hard time removing hardened candle :(

We are blessed to be able to attend the Sunday mass in the cathedral. It is a beautiful church with so much history in it. Admiring the paintings of the blessed Mother of God, St. Joseph with child Jesus and other saints for Catholics like my husband and I was a privileged.

I had not an opportunity to visit it inside, but outside this church is unique and extremely beautiful. This style stands out from the city’s architecture.

The outside is a lot more impressive than the inside. More than the Greek orthodox or Russian orthodox some more clean and simple lines. Definitely worth checking out

This is a beautiful church that I “stumbled upon”. From the outside it is really mesmerizing, the inside is more humble but also worth visiting. There are stunning paintings on the walls and also a beautifully painted cupola. I went in on a Sunday and was lucky because there was a free orchestra concert! 🎶 🖼️

Very beautiful church and it’s just a lovely place to stop after enjoying the scroll through one of the longest streets of Kaunas. In a sunny day it’s just looks spectacular.

Looks great especially night time when all lights are on

We have been to Kaunas 5 times in 10 years, but the church is always closed. You should probably come on church holidays. Externally it looks beautiful, fits well into the landscape and architecture. Oh, we finally got inside this church.

The Neo-Byzanthine Archangel Michael church is an eyecatcher on Liberty Avenue. Looking onto a map of Centras it plays an essential architectoral highlight. with its horizon dominating dome. It feels like a smaller version of Alexander Nevsky Cathedral in Sofia (Bulgaria). Very picturesque. Not to miss when in Kaunas!

A lovely square that serves as a link to the period between 1919 and 1939, when the city was the temporary capital of Lithuania.

Wonderful history in this building, very interesting. The museum curators are lovely and well-informed. The written information could be presented more clearly, it's hard to understand the order.

A calling card of Kaunas) This museum may seem to be dull but it is quite good for visual learners. There are many exhibition stands with textual information and photographs. You can find some interesting facts or see unique everyday items owned by politicians and other famous Lithuanians. I definitely recommend to visit Presidential Palace if you're fond of Lithuania's history.

Very nice history place. Give good understand of Lithaunia history. And Lithaunia president office history. Nice ,kind and professional staff. Liked everything.

Big collection of information about first Lithuanian presidents: Smetona, Grinius, Stulginskis. Nicely renovated palace. Some attractions for kids

This place is amazing! I mean a real presidental building being used for museum and countless photos from between WW timeline and much more. Very nice staff told us more then showed in exhibition. A must be for all interested in history of Lithuania.

You don't get a discount if you have a disability card. Since the US doesn't provide a disability card, it is full price. Overall, it is a good museum. Full price for disabled without card.

A pretty good collection of historical relics. The tickets and also the souvenirs are cheap and worth their prices. However, the name of the museum is misleading. It technically displays tools, weapons, vehicles and uniforms from several period of history, and the Great War section is only just one part of it. Other than this, I really recommend to visit this museum, if you are in Kaunas

Wonderful museum covering all of Lithuanian military history from the earliest human occupation 9f the area right up to the present day. Most exhibits are labeled in English as well as Lithuanian.

What a fantastic collection of history this museum has, one of the best laid out I have been to with a great selection of things to see and learn about

Very affordable, only €5 for entry Broad range of weapons from various historical eras

Was a little bit disappointed with this museum. We were hoping that our visit would provide more clarity on Lithuania's recent history. Whilst the museum is well laid out and the exhibits are well presented and labelled, the way the information is presented for each hall is not easy to digest! (Or read for people of a certain age). Presenting the key facts in a different format might help foreign visitors to get a better understanding of the Lithuania's complex history. The museum is worth a visit but with a little more thought it could be so much better. Don't miss the crashed plane!!

Very good exposition! Highly recommend to all weapons lovers.

The museum has several halls with exhibitions: history of Lithuania; weapons, ruling dynasties, sad pages (the wreckage of the Lituanica plane, deportations). Nearby in the park there are sculptures: the Statue of Liberty with an interesting history; Eternal flame near a hill of stones from battlefields; behind this are carved Lithuanian crosses; bookseller; mother and daughter at work, “with a secret” - a peasant sows rye. On the other side of the building is the Museum of the artist and composer M.K. Cherlenis.

Need a renovation, but still arrange good curated exhibitions and has huge collection of clasical painting art pieces.

Worth a visit not because of the interior, but because of the quality of the collection and some nice green corners.

One of the greatest museum in Lithuania. Great collection of ancient items and impressive amount of art. Definitely recommended to visit.

Great museum of classic art. Includes events, traveling excibitions, interactive creations. Great place to spend a couple of hours.

One of the biggest exhibition places in Kaunas

Beautiful collection, small enough not to get bored and still have time for other activities with new subjects for artful discussions.

Good collection. Nice building, but the steps outside and inside are formidable. It could do with an elevator.

Monday nobody in office need to call by phone then someone will come to sell the ticket to let you in .

Almost every plane here has its own unique story. Sadly indoor exhibition was closed, but I liked what I saw very much anyway.

Very nice aviation museum. Very nice, kind and professional staff. Civil aviation airport close to it. Located near historical Darius and Girena airport. Host airshow and aviation events.

Very good ! Very retro! Amazing models! The training room was closed for that reason just 4 starts. Museum is very good highly recommended to visit it

Very bad and service. Very long to wait and still didn't get any simulator. No indoor exhibition and small outside exhibition. I registered for a simulator on 14:00 when I was near their door I called them letting them know that I'm here the staff said "ill call the guy who needs to let in simulator" and we waited 20min and nothing. Then the staff said that he can't give money back and there was an argument. After this the "fight sim guy" finally got there gave money back and we left. Horrible experience. Not recommend.

Still no indoor exhibition.... 😕 kinda bummer but at least the entrance of 2eur is so low that its worth anyways. I had fun!

Nice interesting place to visit

Aleksotas Observation Deck has a good view over Kaunas' Old Town, the rivers, and beyond. Worth taking the funicular or a stroll up the hill if it's a sunny day.

Beautiful panoramic view of Kaunas Old town and center, Nemunas river. A must when visiting Kaunas, also you can take the tram down the mountain and up again. The tram is paid

Good view over the river to the old town. Funicular is only 1 euro for single journey. Can also use the staircase. Be aware that funicular shuts between 12pm and 1pm for lunch.

Fantastic view from top on old town and Witold bridge over river Niemen. There are two options get to top. You can climb special path with stairs by foot or use train cart

The views were very nice although I felt a little bit underwhelmed? 😅 But I would surely recommend going.

Back here after 40 years, when I was studying in Kaunas. The view remains spectacular, it is even more beyond to history and memories.

Nice viewing platform of Kaunas. You can walk up via the stairs or pay €2 for a return ticket on the tramway next door (cash only)

Very nice historical building. Still working. Very beautifull performances. Good and talented staff. Pleasure for eyes

Great and clean space, definitely would recommend to go there. Lovely atmosphere

Gorgeous place. World class performances in a very stylish premises.

The Kaunas State Musical Theatre is a musical theatre in Kaunas, Lithuania. It was established on November 27, 1940, in the former State Theatre hall adjoining the Laisvės Alėja. For some time, it mostly presented operettas.

Actually, I've never been inside, but I have a lot of pleasant memories on the bench in front of it. I recommend drinking coffee under a tree.

Always exaiting & wonderful. Every visit festive! Just pity it's difficult to get tickets... just had to look for them much earlier before show! But else is 5 stars!

Has great plays and orchestra. Actors and at the same time singers are amazing.

A relatively small, but very interesting museum, in an old building that perfectly adds to the atmosphere of the exhibition. Here you can see old medical and dental instruments and tools, as well as pharmacology equipment, from the ancient times of Lithuania up until the 20th century. However, be aware that some human remains (like skulls) are also presented among the exhibits. I think this is necessary in a scientific museum of this kind, but I'm writing it just in case some people are sensitive or may find it offensive, for whatever reason. The staff was very friendly, they guided me through the various rooms, and explained what to expect to see in each one of them. Each room is equipped with a catalogue of exhibits, available in various languages. The ticket price at the moment of writing (July 2024) is €2.00, which I think is great value for money. Be aware, though, that one can pay only in cash. There is also a short brochure available both in Lithuanian and English, for free. It's sad, though, that there is no museum catalogue/ book available. That's something I'd liked to see in a future visit :)

This little museum is very interesting. It's set up like an old pharmacy, with the customer facing shop, the area where medications were made, as well as medical instruments and chairs. Though honestly, the old time fire extinguisher might have been my favorite.

Very educational. A lot of ancient tolls and health machines.

Rich collection of items, but poorly presented. Solid descriptions of items are missing. Drug store room was full of interesting items, drugs and chemicals, but it was impossible to see them - they ought to be closer or not behind the glass.

Algis and Yolanata were v helpful in our tour. We visited the museum with my family and was surprised to see the history and how far medicine has come through.! Very well presented pictures and descriptions on the history and also surprised to see that couple of equipments work till date

For me as a pharmacy student was this place really beatufil! Exhibition looks nice and guide was amazing, she kows everything! We saw also medicine department of the museum with many gadgets. I recommed this place everyone, also not-pharmacy people.

The most interesting museum I have ever been to. Just after coming in authentic building and friendly personnel meets you. Lots of exhibits dating from 1000 years old till ones of 20th century. The cost is also ridiculously low. Just 1€ for students and 2€ for adults. During the visit I was constantly narrated about history of medice and pharmycy which was much more interesting, than just reading information tables. Also even thought I am not pharmasist or doctor the museum managed to really engage me with lots of bizarre facts and stories. Truly big thanks for the dedicated staff. I recommend to visit this museum for anyone who is in Kaunas. Undoubtedly one of a kind.

Stunning open gallery to peak into the locals' lives. I loved how every picture had a story to read about to better immerse in the space and context!

Very nice to see a neighborhood come together like this! It depicts at made by each of the residents. I liked the qr codes with English explanations especially!

It's an interesting place to see some art but it is literally just a yard so not too big with some artwork. You can see all there is to see in the pictures. I wouldn't make a trip specifically to see this but since it's close to the city centre, if you're having a walk around nearby, it's nice to check it out as it is a fun concept with some very colourful and eclectic art.

Very weird and wonderful. Go thete, and then go to the Sugihara Diplomats for Life Museum.

The Yard Gallery in Kaunas is a hidden gem, offering a unique blend of contemporary art and urban culture. Tucked away in a charming courtyard, this gallery showcases vibrant murals, installations, and street art that reflect the creative spirit of the city. It’s a must-visit spot for art lovers and anyone looking to explore the local art scene. Highly recommended!

A complete gem of a place. An oasis hidden away from the street. Despite hearing of this in the Kaunas literature i came across it by chance. This has to be seen. The effort that has gone in to this place is truly mind boggling. I was alone when i visited and could have spent ages here just looking at the artwork. There's information everywhere even a John Lennon Imagine inspired mural. Wow what place its definately a must see place. Remember the rules it is peoples homes though!

Definitely a must see place in Kaunas. Even if you aren't based there but you love street art, don't miss this chance. It's 100% free and you'll find yourselves in a very cozy courtyard. Just keep quiet.amd respect the residents who live there. Otherwise, go ahead.

Professionals! Each performance is worked out to the smallest detail. The acting is top notch and the work with lighting and scenery is very beautiful.

The National Kaunas Drama Theatre is the biggest theatre in Kaunas, and one of the oldest functioning theatres in Lithuania. There are six different creative spaces for events in the Kaunas Drama Theatre.

Amazing place, worth seeing most of the performances. Especially in Rūtos Hall.

Or 30 year ago or now - same good vibe !!!

Nice sound quality, good visibility from balcony and good lighting and darkness. Clean restrooms, there is a small cafeteria for breaks and nice big lounge. Very nice place to visit. Even when crowded staff is very fast and operational at wardrobe. Administraton is so nice and understanding when being late for a performance, we still got allowed to enter.

Always happy to visit some theatrical show and enjoy a good time to think about live and it's curves and issues. Good actors, different performances for different tastes. All shows in Lithuanian language.

Impressive play "Ne sau žmonės", very intresting staging, songs, music and spec effects. Theatre building is ok too. But could not look around too much because of covid-19 limitations.

As most Kaunas forts this one is only ruins but has its own charm if you like abandoned or historic places.

Best to visit this place with a guide. It is dangerous to visit fort's buildings alone, as it is dark inside, some places are fluded with water, which covers deep wells.

The 4th Fort of the Kaunas Fortress is a fascinating place to explore, especially if you enjoy history and architecture. The old fortifications and tunnels give a real sense of the past, and the area is surrounded by peaceful nature. Some parts are in ruins and not fully restored, but that adds to the mysterious charm. Information signs could be more detailed, yet it’s still a great spot for a quiet walk or photography. Definitely worth a visit for history enthusiasts!

It's a nice place to visit and take a walk around. Since this is a historical place, I believe it would be best to visit it with a guide, to learn more and walk around better. When I visited this place, the grass wasn't that well cut, but I'm sure that was only due to the rain before hand that made the grass taller so beware of ticks! But the amazing feeling of ghost like ruins is the most thrilling and exciting.

If you like war history and fortifications, visit Kaunas forts, but only 1 per day

Amazing

Very interesting place, but many passages are closed.

One of the famous temple of Kaunas Old Town) This Jesuit church is popularly known that it was transferred to the Orthodox and was given to the Catholics. It is located close to the Rathaus. The church has modest interior decoration and calm atmosphere inside.

I was there for a wedding the church was really beautiful. Very similar to other Lithuanian churches from the inside and the acoustics are really nice for quire events

The church have quite beautiful facade and on the front it is closed. There is a piece of paper telling to go from the back to enter the church, but actually there is no entrance. I went into the school cantine during looking for it. At the end I found security guard who told me that I can take pictures from the outside.

I did not visit the church itself, however I think that the outside is beautiful and gives the oldtown of Kaunas a pleasent view.

Great that they have English service at 6:30 pm on Sunday. Very nice, welcome community in a beautiful church. If you have a chance to get to the top patio the view of old town is incredible!

Cannot comment on the interior but beautiful building from the outside.

Nice church at the Town Hall Square

Beautiful church

(Translated by Google) A small cozy church where Ukrainian Orthodox Christians received shelter and God's protection (Original) Невелика затишна церква, де українські православні християни отримали прихисток і Божий захист

(Translated by Google) I am very glad and grateful that there is a Ukrainian Church in Kaunas!!! I blessed Easter this year in this church. Next year I will definitely come here. Special thanks to the priest, he is a very sincere person!!! (Original) Очень рад,и благодарен,что в Каунасе есть Украинская церковь!!! Святил в этом году паски,в этой церкви. В следующем году обязательно приеду сюда же. Отдельное спасибо батюшке, очень душевный человек!!!

At the beginning of the 1930s, when the population of this part of Žaliakalnis increased significantly. As a guide, I know that the great Basilica of the Resurrection, designed by Karol Reisson or someone else, was waiting to be built. After 1933 after the reconstruction, the church became oriented in the east-west direction, acquired the volume of a triple basilica, the main western facade of which is finished with a tower. The compact wooden sanctuary is walled from the outside with so-called Prussian masonry. Unfortunately, the Soviets nationalized the unfinished "big" church, and the small church became the main one for the entire parish. More than one famous priest worked here, St. During Easter, even a bagpipe orchestra accompanied the procession. The church is distinguished by the religious-themed works of Stasios Ušinskas, a stained glass master who studied in Paris.

Kaip gidas žinau, kad buvo laukiama kol bus pastatyta Karolio Reisono ar kito suprojektuota didžioji Prisikėlimo bazilika. Po 1933 m. vykdytos rekonstrukcijos bažnyčia tapo orientuota rytų–vakarų kryptimi, įgavo trinavės bazilikos tūrį, kurio pagrindinis vakarų fasadas užbaigtas bokšteliu. Kompaktiškų formų šventovė medinė, iš lauko užmūryta vadinamuoju prūsiškuoju mūru. Deja, sovietai nepabaigtą „didžiąją“ bažnyčią nacionalizavo, ir mažoji bažnyčia tapo pagrindine visai parapijai. Čia dirbo ne vienas garsus kunigas, Šv. Velykų metu procesiją lydėdavo net dūdų orkestras. Bažnyčiai išskirtumo suteikia Paryžiuje studijavusio vitražo meistro Stasio Ušinsko darbai religine tematika.

(Translated by Google) This is a cozy and sacred church, I would recommend everyone to stop and express their thanks, prayers... because in this parish there are two Basilicas of the Resurrection of the Church and the so-called small Church of the Resurrection of Christ, some need space or pomp, others need closeness and comfort in prayer with God... Both. .. prayer expressed in the community through SV. Mass liberates and unites with God... So it is nice to pray and be... in an orderly parish. (Original) Tai jauki ir sakrali bažnyčia, visiems rekomenduočiau stabtelėti ir išsakyti savo padėką, maldas... nes šioje parapijoje yra dvi Bažnyčios prisikėlimo bazilika ir taip vadinam mažoji Kristaus Prisikėlimo bažnyčia vieniems reikia erdvės ar pompastikos, kitiems artumo ir jaukumo maldoje su Dievu.. Abiejose... malda išreikšta bendruomenėje per ŠV. Mišias išlaisvina ir sujungia su Dievu... Tad tvarkingoje parapijoje malonu melstis ir būti...

We took a bus from Kaunas Centre here it was €1 and took about 30 minutes. As you arive there is a coffee machine at the carpark (there is no cafe or shop to get food here) it is a short pavedcwalk up to the main museum €8 Euros to go in to the Museum was well work it. There is so much to see inside. Well thought out displays and installations. Was history and so.e very thought provoking displays. Everything is displayed in Lithuanian and English. You can walk around the outside area for free. 100% recommended this for a visit 2-3 hrs would do it justice to see Everything!

Beautiful place marked by history. The fort has a very interesting museum and the exterior, including the monument, is a sacred place. I recommend going in the spring season to see all the vegetation in bloom, seemingly in contrast with the history written here.

If you want to understand something of the history of the region in the 20th century, this fortress gives a good overview. I had no idea that the Lithuanians continued to resist the Soviet occupation well into the 1950s. If you go by bus, remember to press the stop button before you reach the stop. I didn't and ended up a mile or two in the wrong direction.

This is a fascinating and haunting place. Its history is so deep and complex. Everyone should visit and understand the difficult time in Lithuania’s history.

One of the most unique, special and educational experiences ever. Definitely consider visiting if you ever visit Lithuania, especially if you like history and new adventures!

Interesting history but very morbid and really hits home the true costs of war. Beautiful country ❤️

The museum is renovated and filled with original and preserved items. We took the two hour guided tour with Olga, it was absolutely worth it.. she was knowledgeable, engaging, and told the story of the in interesting way. You will have access to the inside of the fortress with a guid only. Highly recommended.

Beer restaurant in the old town. Beautiful interior in the basement, delicious food and beer. I especially liked the turkey pate with chocolate. Of the minuses - we were not brought the bill, only the amount to pay. Why?! I never check the bill in a restaurant, but this was unpleasant and causes mistrust.

good, friendly and fast service. The house beers are worth trying, as are the meat dishes, but the vegetarian side is worth avoiding.

Overall, very good! The house beer was one of the best things I've ever had. I really recommend. The food is great. The service is good. I strongly recommend to stop there.

Perfect restaurant. Very helpful staff, nice service. Deliciuos and interesting food. An extraordinary pink zepellini.

Staff very profesional. Tables overcrowded with stuff and small. Not comfy sitting. Food itself was nice. Cepelinai souce was very good.

Very cozy place with friendly helpful professional stuff. Marvelous food. Everything was smooth and enjoyable. Great variety of different beer products, even in desserts. Also nice interpretation of local lithuanian dishes. Thank you for the evening!!

Brewery that doubles as a fancy restaurant. Honey beer, and beer towers available as well as local shots. The food is exquisite, but so is the price as well compared to other spots. Maybe that's why we were the only guests eating out on a Saturday night at 8:30pm

An absolutely stunning church. As you approach and see the full size of the church it is definitely a "wow" moment. It is simply huge and very stark. The simplicity of design continues inside. It feels minimalist and very modern but stil very beautiful. We loved the interpretation of the Stations of the Cross and the stain glass windows. No visit to this church can be complete without a trip up to the roof! We were lazy (well it was very warm) and took the lift. The views, and the perspective this vantage point provides, are definitely worth the 5 Euro fee.

Fantastic views from top to Kaunas city, but too much fees charges for ticket I think! Could be less about 2-3 euros, not 5 💸🤑 If One time saw another time will not go again 👆

Worth visiting this church but it is not as beautiful as some of the others. Architecturally and historically it is important and has a fascinating history. The view from the top is ok but also not the best.

A brilliant view for a brilliant price, €3 to take the stairs to the roof, friendly staff and a beautiful peaceful design, really enjoyed it 😁

The church itself isn't uncool, but the area around it is really ugly. If you want to park your car with a view, that's the place for you.

very cool and modern church with great artwork on the walls by school students. worth going up the top to see panoramas of kaunas although it costs money - student price available

The best views in town. And there aren't that many stairs.

One of the two funiculars in Kaunas. This is a great means of transportation and attraction if you want to visit Christ's Resurrection Church. It runs regularly, the ticket costs €1, it is paid at the upper station, same like at the other funicular. The ride is short and comfortable. Be sure to use it, it is also suitable for children.

For some unknown reason, closed on a Saturday and Sunday. Bizarre, considering that it is a tourist attraction and quite a lot of tourists visit at the weekend. I took the walk to the top of the hill instead and it was better for the cardio. It really is a shame though, because I really wanted to try this.

I have fond memories of using this railway during my student years. It holds a remarkable historical legacy and is a cherished part of the town's UNESCO heritage. Unfortunately, I visited on a Saturday, when it does not operate on weekends.

no reason to go up there - no view, just ugly containers and parking side

Very nice funicular in the city center of Kaunas. The trip may be short, but for 1€ it's worth it.

Interesting experience which costs 1 euro to go up or down. It marked 87 years in 2020, yet it was refurbished so looks very neat - as you were in a time capsule. Reminded me a bit of the transportation in Lisbon.

I passed through on a Sunday, on a day anyway the funicular does not work, but I think there is sign explaining the service is temporarily suspended. Anyway you get better views of the train from the lower station.

We went to see The Offspring. Concert was fantastic, but this review is about the venue. It's easy to get to. Seating is comfortable, and entry and egress are smooth. There are plenty of bars and snack vendors. It's a fantastic venue.

Really nice atmosphere, modern and very well equipped. Only one regred I have is actually very crapy reception and no wifi (at least as turist in roaming - for local maybe it is different).

Was visiting Lithuania for the first time and "The Offspring" event at the Žalgirio arena. Amazing atmosphere and perfect organised. Will definitely come back. Thank you

Modern, spacious, and well-organized — Žalgiris Arena is top-tier. Great atmosphere from the home team!

There are two reasons why I'm leaving 1 star review, because it's not acceptable for the price they are charging to come to their venues. Reason 1. Seating on third floor , the row 7 by the stairs corner. There is literally no space for people to pass the last seat by the stairs corner. You can see in the photos. Those poor two men who had those seats on each side had to always almost stand to allow people pass and keep going down via stairs. Imagine all third floor audience of that section passing those two seats (those two men in this case) every time someone has to leave to go down or come back to their seats. It's more than annoying and is unacceptable for the stadium who can hold 22500 seats. It's just pure greediness of maximising all seats , even if there is not enough space to pass that stairs corner. Reason 2. SEL Concert was fine, but the "warm-up" DJ, their audio set up was disaster (don't know who to blame in this case) but music was cut off twice (DJ had to leave stage and come back after 5 minutes or so) and second time the speakers sounded worse than on your phone on speakers. We couldn't hear anything on the third floor (this "magically" was fixed with the main concert of Sel ) so who knows where the original issue was or who to blame. But from what I know , venues have microphones on each side of stadium measure the sound decimals /laudiness to make sure the sound is not too weak or not too loud. This venue/stadium failed to make sure good sound quality across all levels and 360 degrees audience. Very dissapointed by the stadium itself.

This is a great arena. I was here for the European figure skating championships. It is very well organized and fully equipped. It is easy to find seats, food and toilets. I found it very clean. It is easy to get there.

Loved visiting here. Full size basketball arena home of Zaligris the Kaunas basketball team. Had a great time watching a league game. Tickets for the league matches are well priced. Seats comfortable and just a great experience. €15 got me 2 rows back!

If you’re in Kaunas I highly recommend a trip here. So many animals. The displays spread out over several floors. A lot more animals than I thought. Myself and my friend throughly enjoyed the visit and stayed about 90 minutes looking at all the animals and creatures.

Very nice place to visit. Every month Sunday is free. But the ticket are not expensive. The exhibition is huge. Three floors. Worth it!

🦴 Zoological Museum – fascinating and full of discoveries 🦋 A great place to explore the diversity of the animal world. The museum has a large number of exhibits, from tiny insects to impressive large animals. Every room offers something interesting, whether you’re into marine life, birds, or mammals. It’s well-organized, educational, and perfect for a calm, curious visit. A must for anyone interested in nature and science.

This museum is conveniently located. Laisvės Alley is smooth. The museum collections are very informative and colorful. There are exhibits that show animals in the wild. Some exhibits are about 100 years old. But... how many animals have died and been stuffed...

A very nice experience. It’s fascinating to see the animals up close and observe the details of their bodies—something that’s impossible in a zoo. The museum even includes some rare specimens, such as a 200 kg flounder and a saber-toothed deer. Some of the specimens even have amusing, expressive looks (see the last photo), so I recommend starting on the lowest level to lift your spirits right at the beginning of your visit.

Surprisingly good museum packed with collections of insects, shells, fossils and stuffed animals. It was so interesting I ended up spending much longer there than I anticipated. Excellent value for money.

A lot of exhibits are missing descriptions and information, quite a few exhibits repeat themselves and many exhibits just have Latin names. There is no context why they are grouped in a certain way other than they belong to the same species. What stood out were animals that looked like got killed during hunting trips, some animals were dated to as recent as 2016. It’s not clear whether these animals were killed just for the museum, or somebody did it for fun and then donated them etc. I understand that it’s for educational purposes and mainly all items date back to early 20th century. But the museum presentation and overall feel feels outdated and some items are morally questionable.

I had such a wonderful visit! The exhibition section is truly so thoughtful and well done, with lots of interactive elements. The staff were so kind and helpful and made sure that I was able to access information even though I do not speak Lithuanian. I learned so much about the history of Lithuanian literature. I would absolutely recommend a visit.

Interesting museum, would've been better to have more English translations. Highly recommend a visit.

Such a nice experience. Friendly staff. And a good price for students

Super nice, interactive, interesting museum. Hours flew and I wanted to stay and get more inspired. LOVED the atmosphere, the new attitude, many activities and the garden... I'll most certainly visit it in May when all will be blooming :). I LOVED every exhibition for any group of people, creativity, colors, educational cartoons and videos (great animation), structure of museum, easy and playful atmosphere. It was an amazing experience for a small museum and SUPER INSPIRATION that I was looking for. I'd call it "Museum with a big heart". Thanks for amazing time! :) Btw, spoiler allert: big, new exhibition is coming up on May 28th.

The best museum in Kaunas. All exhibitions are well done and staffs are very kind and professional. A must to visit in town.

Excellent museum that (among other things) shows the significant role books played in Lithuanian history. It was a perfect way for our family (aged 11 to 46) to learn about this interesting country.

Breathtaking! The private quarters of the Lithuanian poet Maironis are meticulously restored. According to one of the 5 extremely helpful and friendly staff members, nearly all the exhibits are restored originals. A beautiful and historical insight into the life of one of the most important figures in Lithuania’s literary history. Adding to this experience, this museum features an astounding array of exhibits pertaining to the history of lithuania’s literary history and introduces different historical figures with very tasteful audiovisual elements and several interactive installations. This museum is worth the visit and will suit both children and adults!

Finally, a remarkable landmark to visit and explore the spirit of the 1930s, while also connecting with Modernist Kaunas, a UNESCO heritage site. Some exciting highlights: authentic brass handles preserved for over 90 years, a Lithuanian wooden chair crafted from pear and plum wood—awarded in Paris in 1937. The apartment spans 118 m² and features four rooms.

Amazing and interesting place that lets one get a better feel of how some people truly lived during the interwar period in Lithuania. The idea of a mandatory guide is both excellent and very well implemented for this particular setting. Highly recommended.

Amazing experience. Seems expensive but so worth it. More a theatre experience than a museum. Just go.

Excellent museum, very charismatic guide Tadas.

Amazing experience! It was extremely interesting to visit, you can see how much care and effort the owners and guides put in. It felt like i was visiting an old friend from the past. It was amazing how much trust the owners have to let the guess to freely look around and experience every little detail. The guide did a great job at telling a story about the past and how things worked. It really felt like we are the important guests, met with glass of sparkling wine, and toasts. It was amazing how they restaurated old gadgets and actually used them. The place felt alive, and welcoming. I can only imagine how much work it took, but thank you so much for this experience because it reminds how great Lithuanians where and is to this day, and that we need to not forget and cherish our past and future as nation💕

Incredible Art Deco museum in Kaunas (recenty Kaunas Modernist Architecture was granted UNESCO World Heritage status, and this building is an example of it). You need to buy a ticket online, book a date and participate in a guided tour. The ticket price is 23 EUR (totally worth every euro). The owners, a couple - Petras and Karolis, bought this beautiful art deco building, furnished it, rebuild it in a accurate manner and opened it for public to enjoy. It gives you a unique look into the life of lithuanians before Soviet occupation. Our guide was very polite, very engaging. You will be asked to take pictures AFTER the tour and you will have enough time to do so. You will be able to touch everything, to sit on furniture, open drawers and take a look. It's not your typical musuem where you can't touch anything. They also do tours in english and other languages. You can buy personal tour just for yourself, it will be more expsnsive of course.

My dream flat! Absolutely amazing to get to know how people lived in first independence times between the 2 wars. Stunning, thought provoking, the flat of my dreams for sure!!!

Very small and super cute church. If I was catholic and should chose I place to get married, that would be the one.

Stunning and hidden away sadly the candles below were utterly stunning the entrance to which is behind the church the heat from the candles hits you as you go down the first step. The interior is just a delight and it is so small and pretty perfectly formed!

The oldest church in Kaunas and one of the oldest brick Gothic building in Lithuania) It was built in 15th century! The temple features its good location (in the central part of the city, not far from the Old Town) and a modest interior decoration. You feel a special mysterious atmosphere and tranquility here. Must visit)

A beautiful small church which is, unfortunately, surrounded by much taller buildings in the courtyard where it is located. The construction dates from early 16th century and is in Gothic style, the Baroque interior dates from the 18th century. In 2016 the facade was renovated so it's a feast for the eyes.

Came across it while wandering around and found it to be a really charming church. We were too late to visit inside but would definitely try another time.

Very small and cute 14th century church

Walking around the back of the church, an elderly woman was being escorted up from a steep stairway under the church - speaking to the caretaker they brought us down to the cellar which was a warren of lit candles - real luck of the ☘️ Irish- lovely experience

Gallery is closed! We stayed in Kaunas one more day only to be able to visit the gallery. No information on Google Maps according closure. We are definitely NOT coming back.

A must-visit for tourists. You can feel a vibe of conceptual and contemporary art here) There are crowds of people on weekends. It is a contemporary art museum where you can find masterpieces and performances by not only Lithuanian artists but also very world-famous names. You need around two hours to explore the exhibitions which combine all forms of contemporary art from paintings and applied art to installations, videos, photos and performances. Performances and exhibitions are best suited for adults. You can enjoy permanent exhibitions as well as temporary expositions held at the museum. In my view, the main highlight of the gallery is temporary solo exhibitions. They change once or twice a month. There is a café and a souvenir shop. If you love contemporary or conceptual art, you should visit it. My recommendation!

Spectral drift was one of the sickest exhibits I’ve ever seen

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit here in the city, and was able to travel here via scooter! Me and my partner specifically came here for the Marina Abramovic exhibition 'memory of being' featuring some of her early works up to her most recent. The staff on entry were friendly and helpful, and the building itself is something worth passing by due to its concrete architecture. The curation of the exhibition was simple but beautifully done with audio carefully placed so you could hear each video! Additionally there were 3 rooms on different floors gradually moving through her work in chronological order, featuring some of her most well known pieces and ones I've not come across before!

Some exhibitions were interesting the others just alright. Staff was super helpful and friendly. Exhibition changes every 3 months so the experience might be much different every time you visit. Ticket was 8e

Small but efficient. Interesting, different exhibitions for any taste. Most touching for me personally was about imigration in Italy, the womb exposition and black hole - the dark room.

Nice little museum with both permanent and temporary exhibitions. Recommend, wirks well especially for those who do not have a lot of time in Kaunas but want to get some understanding of modern art in Lithuania. Also, nice bar/cafe with friendly staff!

It's an abandoned fort. It's not guarded and many parts are pretty dark so I suggest bringing a strong flashlight to explore the whole thing better, phone flashlight will not be enough since this place has very dark and long tunnels. Seems like they tried to renovate it at one point but it only messed negatively with it's natural abandoned beauty, I hope they leave it as is or even take out those lights they installed for some reason. I also suggest reading the history of it before visiting to be able to experience the vibes fully. Also september is the best month to go visit all the forts. For this one, no tickets are necessary just be careful and watch your step.

It's ok if you like to explore abandoned buildings and you're passing by but nothing special IMO.

There is a route you can take, which is amazing and well thought out. However the map i tagged below is only half way on number 9.... so i mixed it up. Lots of the info plates are Lt only. Grass was kinda cut but still not very low, check for ticks!

The car must be parked somewhere nearby. Access is easy. There is something to see and walk around.

Beautiful fort. Not much to see..but a nice place to take a walk and watch the sunset.

Great place to explore (specially if you like abandoned buildings) it's a nice place to make creative photoshoots as well. Most of this location beauty reveals on colds seasons, because underground buildings gets more ambient light. Note: this area is private, if you go there you should be quiet then you won't be asked to go out of the territory.

A part of Lithuania history. Please be carefull in autumn - winter seasons bcz these forts are for bats 🦇 please do not disturb their winter sleep. You can get a fine if you will disturb them.

One of the best museums of music I've ever been) You will feel and hear music here. This is a modern interactive museum where you can play musical instruments, listen to the music and create musical compositions! Cool place)) There's a great collection of traditional Lithuanian musical instruments and the separate building with unique old piano and keyboard. You will get only positive emotions! I definitely recommend this museum. It would be interesting to visit both kids and adults. Extremely positive feedback from me)

Nice and tidy museum. Besides the selection of traditional Lithuanian music organs it has a number of interactive exhibitions which can attract your interest even if, like me, you are not a music fanatic. The staff is really friendly and helpful. It worth a stop during your visit in Kaunas. You will not need about an hour or so to tour yourself around. Also there is a nice cafeteria in the court where you can sit and take a break.

My favourite museum in Kaunas. It holds a lot of traditional music instruments of various regions of Lithuania, some of which you are allowed to play with. You can also hear old recordings of folk music and music of artists who combine modern styles (rock, electro, metal etc with traditional music).There is also a separate building with organs and other key instruments. It only costs 2€.

Very interesting, educational museum. Very good for children: lots of interactive instruments. Headphones to listen to various instruments etc Clean, spacious bathrooms (baby friendly!) available.

What fun! A great little museum of folk music and instruments, perfect for a rainy morning's entertainment. One is encouraged to try out a variety of interesting folk instruments, and the audio and visual displays are very engaging too!

One of my greatest Museum experiences this year - one can read and listen to the stories of historical and contemporary Lithuanian music. But the best is you are actually allowed to play some of the instruments :)

What an amazing, interactive and immersive experience! Absolutelly the best we have visited to date in Lithuania!! Loved every second of it.

it was once a beautiful palace, now converted into residences, looks a bit weird, but still holds traces of former glory! a small note to the current owner, pls remove that sat dish .. why do you need it bro?

Has great view and nature

Visit, pretty much on a daily basis. Love it.

Nice....

Old building with some history

Gorgeous statues

Super

Similar condition to 1st fort. Most of it is in ruins but interesting to explore. Has a nice roof spot to sit and relax at. Fun fact first 3 forts were built the same way but currently 3rd one is in the best condition.

I dont spyyek enlisth

There is only ruins

(Translated by Google) Historic place. The fort is quite well preserved. Many walls and main buildings remain. However, the surroundings are very overgrown with grass and bushes. It's really hard to get to. There is a swamp around where there is a house on one hen's leg, so if you go try to find that house. I would also recommend coming on a sunny day, because if it is humid, it will be very unpleasant to go. We cannot go to many places in the fort, but there are pictures about the history of the fort and its inhabitants. There are tables placed about the entire history of the fort. I definitely recommend visiting this wonderful and historic place. (Original) Istorinė vieta. Fortas yra ganėtinai gerai išlikęs. Yra likę daug sienų ir pagrindinių pastatų. Tačiau aplink yra labai apaugę žolėmis ir krūmais. Tikrai sunku privažiuoti. Aplink yra pelkė, kurioje yra namelis ant vienos vištos kojos, tai jeigu eisite pamėginkite surasti tą namelį. Dar rekomenduočiau atvykti saulėtą dieną, nes jeigu bus drėgna, bus labai nemalonu eiti. Forte daug kur negalime eiti, tačiau yra padėti paveikslai apie forto istoriją ir jų gyventojus. Yra išdėtos lentelės apie visą forto istoriją. Tikrai siūlau apsilankyti šioje nuostabioje ir istorinėje vietoje.

(Translated by Google) I happened upon it unexpectedly and decided to take a look. Part of the fort has been renovated and looks really impressive, but for the unprepared (rubber boots, searchlight), I would not advise you to go too far, especially inside. I would suggest visiting with a guide as it is less dangerous and you can still learn a lot of interesting things. Dangers: - many open wells and possible fall from a height.

Siūlyčiau lankytis su gidu, nes tai ir mažiau pavojinga ir dar gali sužinoti daug įdomių dalykų. Pavojai: - daug atvirų šulinių ir galimas kritimas iš aukščio.

Žinoma, aikštė gerai matoma nebent kybant virš jos, priartėt galima tik prasukant automobiliu. O šiaip jei apie ją nieko nežinai, nemaži šansai, kad ir nepastebėsi...

(Translated by Google) A very unusual square, because such an idea was proposed to the city and implemented (in July 2017) by artist Naglis Rytis Baltušnikas. It is almost impossible for pedestrians to get to it, as it is located at the intersection of heavy traffic. The square is painted with white paint at the foot of Parodas hill, where Parodas, K. Donelaičio streets and Vytautos avenue intersect. "Fluxus" Aztec sticking out his tongue is painted in white paint on the road surface. This place was chosen for the work because the intersection is in front of Parodas Street house no. 1, where Jurgis Mačiūnas himself lived as a child - one of the pioneers of the Fluxus movement.🙂 (Original) Labai neįprasta aikštė, nes tokią idėją miestui pasiūlė ir įgyvendino (2017 m. liepos mėn.) dailininkas Naglis Rytis Baltušnikas. Į ją patekti pėstiesiems beveik neįmanoma, nes randasi intensyvių transporto srautų susikirtimo vietoje. Aikštė baltais dažais išpiešta Parodos kalno papėdėje, kur susikerta Parodos, K. Donelaičio gatvės ir Vytauto prospektas. Ant kelio dangos baltais dažais išpieštas liežuvį rodantis "Fluxus" actekas. Ši vieta kūriniui pasirinkta, nes sankryža yra prieš Parodos gatvės namą Nr. 1, kuriame vaikystėje gyveno pats Jurgis Mačiūnas – vienas iš Fluxus judėjimo pradininkų.🙂

Sergius of Radonezh in the central fortification of the Kovno fortress, on the left bank of the Neman River, in the Freda area, was intended for the Kovno fortress artillery consisting of 20 fortress artillery companies (5 battalions). It was built by the military authorities of the fortress artillery on the basis of a former Catholic chapel (the builders were engineer-Colonel V.S. Neplyuev, from 1886 the head of the construction of the fortress, in 1907-1908 - the commandant of the fortress, and Lieutenant Colonel Voevodsky). According to the description of St. Grigory Tsitovich (Temples of the Army and Navy. Pyatigorsk, 1913. P. 166), “the church building is stone, on a stone foundation, one-story, covered with iron. The architectural feature of the church is a concrete vault; the walls are painted with fawn-colored marble patterns. The main dome is sky-colored. In the sails are images of the Evangelists. The altar looks especially impressive in the evening light: its dome is completely covered with a golden mesh, along which the light is scattered in millions of rays. The temple was consecrated on November 8, 1891; accommodates 200 people. According to the staff of the church, there is: one priest; The priest's apartment is state-owned. The Arch.-Mikhailovskaya Church in the settlement of Ponemone, 6 versts from the cr., is assigned to the church. Kovno." The style of the three-part temple with a high hipped bell tower above the porch was designed in the forms of the “Moscow-Yaroslavl” version of the Russian style. The decor includes crosses, paired shoulder blades, keel-shaped kokoshniks, flies, and crackers. After 1919, the church housed a horticultural school. Closed after World War II, the church housed the gym of the state farm-technical school named after. Michurina. Then the church was empty, the completions were lost. The building has been privatized and preserved. prot. Alexander Bertash (Original) Статью добавил(а): прот. Александр,  21 декабря 2020 Каменная церковь во имя покровителя артиллеристов преп. Сергия Радонежского в центральном укреплении крепости Ковно, на левом берегу реки Неман, в районе Фреда, была предназначена для Ковенской крепостной артиллерии в составе 20 крепостных артиллерийских рот (5 батальонов). Она была сооружена военным начальством крепостной артиллерии на основе бывшей католической часовни (строители – инженер-полковник В.С. Неплюев, с 1886 г. руководитель строительства крепости, в 1907-1908 гг. – комендант крепости, и подполковник Воеводский). По описанию свящ. Григория Цитовича (Храмы армии и флота. Пятигорск, 1913. С. 166), «здание церкви - каменное, на каменном фундаменте, одноэтажное, покрыто железом. Архитектурная особенность церкви - бетонный свод; стены расписаны орнаментами под мрамор палевого цвета. Главный купол небесного цвета. В парусах изображения Евангелистов. Особенно эффектно выглядывает алтарь при вечернем освещении: купол его сплошь покрыт золотой сеткой, по которой, миллионами лучей, разбрасывается свет. Освящен храм 8 ноября 1891 года; вмещает 200 человек. По штату при церкви положен: один священник; квартира священника казенная. К церкви приписана Арх.-Михайловская церковь в посаде Понемоне, в 6 верстах от кр. Ковно». Стилистика трехчастного храма с высокой шатровой колокольней над притвором была выдержана в формах «московско-ярославского» варианта русского стиля. В декоре присутствуют кресты, парные лопатки, килевидные кокошники, ширинки, сухарики. После 1919 г. в церкви расположился костел садоводческо-огороднической школы. Закрыта после Второй мировой войны, в церкви находился спортзал совхоза-техникума им. Мичурина. Затем церковь пустовала, были утрачены завершения. Здание приватизировано, проведена его консервация. прот. Александр Берташ

This was one of the top 2 higlights of our 4 day visit to Kaunus. It was a bit of a trek on foot from the town but definitely worth the effort. From the outside the property is unassuming, inside however is a different story. We paid 10 Euros each, which included 2 Euro to watch a 20 minute film outlining what happened. The museum appears to be run by a small team, who were very helpful and on hand to answer any questions. The presentation of information and the use of mixed media to explain the historical events that took place were exceptional. What a great way to make a topic come to life and maintain interest. It would be difficult not to be touched by the impact that Sugihara had on the lives of thousands of Jewish people. He was a hero, a beacon of humanity in a very dark period of our history. This is a must visit place in Kaunas but note - opening times are limited. Leave enough time to fully experience what the museum has to offer. Highly recommended.

This man is a sincere, unassuming hero. He will never be forgotten. May his name be blessed for all eternity. A positive place. I personally know a family of descendants.

This is now our favorite museum in Kaunas. Located up on a pretty hilltop, arriving there feels like you are visiting someone's home... which in fact you are. It's a moving and inspiring place (you might even shed a tear). Top tip: pay the extra 2 euro to watch the documentary film. It's excellent and explains eveything in 20 minutes. The museum itself, though small, is simply lovely. It's very interactive in charming and surprising ways. For example, touch one of the keys on the piano and you will hear a musical piece from that time. Use an old time telephone connection board to hear a range of stories. The friendly young man who is a curator and also manages the museum was a wealth of knowledge, and is obviously very passionate about the museum. Top marks all around. Getting there: take a Bolt, about 4.5 euro.

Before I start looking for places to visit during my stay in Kaunas, I have never heard anything about the story of this place. But now I am really happy that I learnt so many things about the actions of these two brilliant diplomats. I really recommend every tourist/traveller to visit this place. It is like visiting a history museum of Lithuania during ww2. You will need around 1 hour or more to watch the introductory video and tour yourself around. The 5 euro entry fee is small (you can donate more, if you like) from my point of view. Bonus: It is open on Mondays, when almost every other museum is closed.

Very well organized. Excellent presentation of audio and visual. Set up to feel like the original consulate. Historical context provided with selectable short videos, accompanying text and maps. Very educational.

Was incredible to come to visit the house and office of a giant of a man who was responsible for saving the lives of so many during the Holocaust in 1940. I was personally connected to this story, with my grandparents being saved by Mr Sugihara. Thank you for the beautiful memorial in this museum!

Wonderful museum. Visited Sunday. Delightful young lady working there. Very informative. Stayed three hours. Fascinating historical display.

Magical place to visit. On the sunny summer day you can have a swim in the river, there is a beach, boat mooring and a picnic area with tables and wc. 👍

We had a great time in this church: free entrance, free guided tour, warm (literally and figuratively) welcome and lots of new information. The church is even more beautiful when you know its history and context! Worth a detour, if possible, book a free commentary on Facebook a day or two in advance.

the church area is very well rearranged now. Every weak some event Just wait till the road works complete. Now they are causing traffic jams there.

Amazing church - mixture of gothic and renaissance, made or red bricks, with niches on the main facade. Picturesque view on the Neman river.

Oldest bricks church in Lithuania with beautiful view to Nemunas river

Beautiful old church by the river, unfortunately not in the middle of the green meadow anymore.

Beautiful and unique place, very beautiful view on the nearby river. There is a sitting area for picnic and WC. I am very recommending to visit this place one of the most beautiful ones in Kaunas country. There is a small parking area nearby. Very good place for this who like photography

this is a great church

Beautiful

(Translated by Google) This church left an indelible impression on me. I don't know the life story, but the signs of the times speak for themselves. Upon entering the main space there is an initial shock and slight confusion, as the space is rearranged and re-arranged so horribly that you begin to wonder at the lack of appreciation of such a heritage by the people who came up with it. As you climb the stairs, the whole idea of ​​this heritage demolition becomes clear. It is easily shocking and makes you rethink what really happened in those times when these premises were not used for what they were built for. (Original) Ši bažnyčia man paliko neišdildomą įspūdį. Gyvavimo istorijos nežinau, tačiau laiko ženklai kalba patys už save. Papuolus į pagrindinę erdvę ištinka pirmasis šokas ir lengvas pasimetimas, nes erdvė yra perskirstyta ir perskirstyta taip siaubingai, jog pradedi stebėtis tų žmonių, kurie tai sugalvojo, nevertinimu tokio paveldo. Užlipus laiptais tampa aiškus visas šio paveldo išdarkymo mąstas. Tai lengvai šokiruoja ir verčia dar karta permąstyti kas išties vyko tais laikais, kai šias patalpas naudojo ne tam, kam joa buvo statytos.
