#Kaunas Sign at Kaunas Castle

Highlight • Monument

The Lithuanian castle was first mentioned in 1361 and repeatedly destroyed by the Teutonic Order and built by the Lithuanians again and again. Today concerts and music performances are offered.

The work of the sculptor Kęstutis Balčiūnas reflects a historical figure confidently walking forward, with accurately reproduced facial features, clothes of that era and an authentic portfolio. Rita Vileišytė-Bagdonienė, the daughter of J. Vileišiš living in the USA, who came to the unveiling ceremony of the sculpture, confirmed that the sculpture is very similar to her father.

If you're looking for large department stores, you're in the wrong place. The pedestrian zone is lined with small shops of all kinds. And that has its own charm. What can be annoying here is the sometimes aggressive begging. But with an energetic attitude, you'll soon have peace. 😉

St. Peter and St. Paul's Cathedral, Kaunas

Highlight • Religious Site

Another highlight is the Kaunas Cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul. It is the largest building in the Old Town and has been the basilica of the Cardinal of Lithuania since 1921. The church was built in the Gothic architectural style and features a Baroque high altar depicting the crucifixion scene of Jesus. Worth seeing is the sacristy with its cross vault or the 17th-century Neo-Gothic wood-carved chapel.

Kaunas is nice and relaxed and not hectic. The old town and the pedestrian zone are particularly worth seeing. What takes a bit of getting used to is the rather aggressive begging. Especially in the pedestrian zone. Otherwise it's worth the trip.

In this city there is a lot of art to see as graffiti on the walls or funny bronze statues

Today we went through Kaunas again 👨‍👦. First we went to the funicular to get a view of the city from above. Then we walked to the "New Town" with Kaunas boulevard. The city hasn't been completely renovated, but that's what makes it so charming. Many houses simply have patina, some facades show beautiful paintings 🎨 on the walls.

A nice walk through Kaunas (tour guide Dietmar). Seen quite a few highlights of Kaunas, including the merging of 2 rivers (Neris and Nemunas) that then continue through sls Nemis. Kaunas is the cultural capital of Europe this year but I think that due to corona a lot of construction was not ready yet because we are still working hard …
