<<< Back to Lithuania Travel Agents
Vilnius is the capital of Lithuania and one of the country's oldest cities. It stretches along both banks of the fast flowing Neris River, and is set among hills pine forests. Vilnius is very old city indeed. The honor for founding Vilnius is justly given to Gediminas (a Lithuanian Duke) in the year 1323. Having declared Vilnius his "royal town", Gediminas created the conditions for its subsequent growth as the political, economical and cultural center of Lithuania. The fortress on Castle Hill was used for defense purposes and was called the Upper Castle. Following the craftsmen in other European towns at the end of the 15th century, Vilnius craftsmen began to join together by professions into guilds. Many Catholic churches and monasteries appeared in the town. Stone buildings sprang up inside the Lower Castle. The new Cathedral was among them. Crafts and trade continued to develop in the 16th century. Many beautiful new buildings in the late Gothic and Renaissance style appeared in the town. The most significant event in the cultural life of 16th century Lithuania was the founding of the Vilnius Academy in 1579, which was endowed with the rights and privileges of a university. In 1795 Vilnius became the center of a new gubernia consisting of the lands annexed to the Russian Empire. A number of new Classical style buildings were built, including the Cathedral, which had been reconstructed at the end of the 18th century, a new town hall, and the Governor-Generals' Palace. In 1860, a railway, the first in Lithuania, crossed Vilnius and connected with St. Petersburg and Warsaw. During World War I Vilnius was occupied by the Kaiser's troops for three and a half years. On 16 February, 1918, Lithuanian Council in Vilnius proclaimed an independent Lithuanian Republic. In the autumn of 1920, Vilnius and the region to which it belonged were occupied by Poland. On October 10th, 1939, Lithuania and the Soviet Union signed a treaty on mutual aid, in accordance with which Vilnius and the Vilnius Region were returned to Lithuania. In 1940, Vilnius became the capital of Soviet Lithuania, which meant it was an administrative center of occupied Lithuania. On March 11th, 1990, the Supreme Council restored Lithuania's independence.

Overview

Introduction

Vilnius, the 10th-century city that is the capital of Lithuania, exudes a warm charm. Visitor should start their tour on Castle Hill, where Gediminas' Tower offers a spectacular view of the city. It was there that Lithuania's yellow, green and red flag was raised in 1988 for the first time in decades. To the northeast is the 14th-century Church of St. Peter and St. Paul, with a plain facade that belies its sumptuous interior. And just to the west, at the foot of the hill, is Gediminas Square, with a Roman Catholic cathedral (built on the site of a pagan temple) and bell tower.

The hill of the three crosses dominates the city. The crosses, which can be seen for many miles/kilometers around, were supposedly erected in the 1600s to commemorate Franciscan martyrs but were torn down by the Soviets. The crosses were triumphantly re-erected in 1989.

It's an enjoyable walk through the University of Vilnius (baroque architecture, lovely frescoes and picturesque courtyards—especially in St. John's Church) and past the domed Church of St. Casimir, built for the Jesuits in the early 17th century. Walkers can continue from St. Casimir's to the Gate of Dawn, the last remaining part of the city walls.

A day trip can be made to Paneriai, a World War II death camp, where more than 100,000 Lithuanians and Poles (mostly Jews) were murdered by the Nazis.

Vilnius was named as a European Capital of Culture in 2009 in part for its cultural events and exhibitions. This helped to grow the awareness and popularity of the destination.
