It is a Roman Catholic church. Located in the old city of Vilnius, it is the center of Catholic spiritual life in the country. The coronation ceremony is here, and many famous noblemen are buried in churches and tombs from Lithuanian and Polish history (royal mausoleums). Inside are tombstones of murals, paintings, sculptures, and other artworks. It has been expanded, rebuilt, and restored over centuries, and it has been destroyed and burned many times. This neoclassical style building main facade is decorated with four Gospels of Baroque-style sculpture. Three sculptures are placed on the roof of the cathedral (St. Casimir, St. Stanislos in the center and St. Helena). Standing in front of the cathedral (one of Alderton's oldest and tallest towers), it offers a beautiful panoramic view. The house of the Baroque St Casimir Church (1636) was built by the patron saint of Lithuania. Really impressive. The spacious and lively cathedral square hosts concerts, special events, celebrations, etc. In short, its simplicity and tranquility are wonderful. Preserved well. Big, bright and fun! Great location. Close to other attractions, restaurants, cafes, shops and more! Good environment. Beautiful at any time of the day. Definitely a must!

    One of the most famous landmarks of Vilnius' first buildings was built in 1387. Because of the many renovations, the church gradually merged various styles of different periods. Gothic styles, Renaissance styles and Baroque styles. The church was white as a whole. In fact, the personal feeling is more similar to the Greek building. There are three statues on the front mountain wall. The cross in the middle is Santa Ana. The right is San Cazimiras. The left is San Stanislav. Don't ask who is it. The small copy of the homework is 52 meters high next to the limited cathedral. The clock tower is the watch tower of the 13th century ancient castle. There are 17 clocks and watches in the Soviet era. The church was transformed into an art gallery. Lithuania restored it after independence. The church still has Gothic watercolor murals of the late 14th century and church utensils of the early 20th century. It has a palace for burial.

    Vilnius Tallinn and Riga, I still like Vilnius the most. The other two old cities are too small. Vilnius Old Town needs to walk all day, there are many coffee shops. It is already cold in autumn, the Republic on the other side is worth your visit, no public transportation is required, walking is the best way. It was quiet at night, with almost no nightlife.

    It will be better to go to the exterior on a sunny day. It is very easy to find in the city. The old town is within walking distance and free entry.
