Weekend in Lithuania
Trakai-Vilnius Tour
Trakai – the former ancient capital of Lithuania that began to emerge as a town already in the 13th century and
is the gateway to the south-eastern part of Lithuania. It is the only (Gothic) castle on water throughout Eastern
Europe, built in extreme conditions – on Lake Galvė.
In addition, Trakai is a unique centre of Karaite community, and the national dish “kibinai” is the key to the local culinary heritage.
You will see the castle, the Old Town, the Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin, the Devil’s Pit and the Hill of Angels, an
archaeological reserve. In spare time you will be able to try Karaite cuisine in one of the local restaurants, buy some souvenirs,
go boating or for a sail on a catamaran, enjoy the beauty of nature and purity of water.
The next day – bus and walking tour of Vilnius. You will see the Old Town, which is one of the biggest in Eastern Europe and
was inscribed in UNESCO World Heritage List in 1994.
Architecture that combines the Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Classical elements will impress you with an unusual mix of
several different styles and a merge into a unified aesthetic whole. You will visit one of the oldest universities in Western Europe,
Vilnius University. You will admire churches, squares, narrow streets and temples of various confessions (the Cathedral, the
Gates of Dawn, Church of Ss. Peter and Paul, Gediminas Castle, Town Hall Square, St. Anne’s Church, Bernardine Monastery).
You will be able to go to the museum of your choice or visit Park of Europe, if you wish.
Then, we will be off to the biggest shopping centre “Akropolis”, where you will be able to have lunch, make the necessary
purchases, go to the cinema or go skating.

Cathedral of the Annunciation, Presidential Palace, Town Hall Square, Church of Vytautas the Great (the oldest
and the most valuable church in Kaunas), Church of the Resurrection of Christ (one can admire the bird’s-eye
view of the city from its observation point), the tomb of St. Francis Xavier and the Jesuit Monastery, Church

The one of a kind Hill of Crosses near Šiauliai has yet left no one indifferent (on our way there we
will stop to see several smaller yet no less beautiful churches). Since the beginning of the 19th
century people leave crosses there praying for help or thanking for the blessings in their lives. At
present there are more than 20.000 crosses there – both works of art of craftsmen and simple
wooden crosses made by ordinary people. There you will find the cross of Pope
John Paul II hoisted during his visit to Lithuania in 1993.
The next day we will offer a bus and walking sightseeing tour of
Vilnius.

Vilnius – Lithuanian Capital of Culture
Vilnius is a unique city that boasts medieval castles, unique architecture of the Old Town, a great number of
regularly held concerts and performances, luxurious restaurants and clubs.
Within a few days you will have time to feel the colour of the Old Town (with its churches, squares and streets,
cathedrals, castles, belfries, monasteries, bastions and palaces), visit a few museums (Vilnius Ethnography
Museum, National Museum, Museum of Genocide Victims, etc). Stroll through the Park of Europe – one of the most impressive
museums of modern art. We will also suggest going to the theatre, opera or a concert.
Lithuanian Manors, Parks and Castles
In almost every corner of Lithuania one can admire manors and
castles, sometimes derelict and dilapidated, yet always reflecting
the dramatic events in the history of the nation.
We will visit the ancient capitals of Lithuania; go to the family
estate of counts Tyszkiewicz-Lоhоjski, Trakų Vokė estate, and
Lentvaris manor; will have a look at Užutrakis Palace and Park.
We will devote an entire day to Vilnius castles, palaces, monasteries, squares and parks and also visit Amber Museum in the palace
of Count Tyszkiewicz in Palanga, situated in a magnificent park
designed by a famous French architect Édouard André.
Churches and Cemeteries of Lithuania
Churches in Lithuania are not just places of pilgrimage but also living monuments, quite accurately and
profoundly reflecting the history of the region and nation. Many small towns are spotted with domes of
cathedrals, churches and temples. Almost every chapel is a real work of art. All of this is spiritual heritage
belonging to people of all confessions. The art of Romantic poets Adam Mickiewicz and Juliusz Slowacki
connected memories of Vilnius of Polish, Lithuanian and Belarusian peoples forever; the heart of the Polish
Marshal Jozef Pilsudski is buried in Vilnius Rasos Cemetery.
It is impossible to visit all holy places in Lithuania in just a few days.
However, we suggest at least glimpsing at the sacramental heritage.
You will visit the most beautiful churches of Vilnius: Church of the
Holy Mother of God, St. Anne’s Church, Church of Ss. Peter and Paul,
St. Michael’s Church that houses the Museum of History of Religion,
Bernardine Church – one of the biggest Gothic churches in Vilnius
(church, yard, basement); you will also visit Antakalnis Cemetery,
Rasos Cemetery and Rokantiškės Cemetery.
UNESCO World Heritage in Lithuania
Republic of Lithuania was admitted to UNESCO in 1991. One of the
tasks of the organisation is preservation of spiritual heritage for future
generations.
Between the 12th and 18th century Vilnius, political centre of the Grand
Duchy of Lithuania, had a great impact on the cultural and architectural
development of Eastern Europe. Despite all invasions and partial
destructions the city has preserved an impressive complex of buildings
of the Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Classical periods, as well as
medieval buildings and natural resources. All of that contributed to the
inscription of the historic city centre in the UNESCO World Heritage List
in 1994.
During the tour you will visit one of the oldest universities in Western
Europe, Vilnius University. You will admire churches, squares, narrow
streets and temples of various confessions (the Cathedral, the Gates
of Dawn, Church of Ss. Peter and Paul, Gediminas Castle, Town Hall
Square, St. Anne’s Church, Bernardine Monastery, Rasos Cemetery).
The Curonian Spit, a unique creation of man and nature, was inscribed
in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2000 and is a peninsula (about
98 km in length and 0,4-4 km in width) stretched on the territory of two
countries – Lithuania and Russia (Kaliningrad region). Lithuania owns
50 km of the north of the peninsula. We will also visit the Sea Museum,
Dolphinarium, watch how a sundial works or take a boat trip (try cooking
a fish soup and visit the bird ringing station).
Kernavė, a small place that witnesses unique cultural traditions of
extinct civilizations, was inscribed in the UNESCO World Heritage List
in 2004. Kernavė is the only town in the Baltic States located on five
hill forts; it is also the first capital of Lithuania. Moreover, Kernavė has
a status of National Reserve, where archaeological excavations take
place continually for almost 30 years now, and the local Museum of
Archaeology and History has a great number of unique artefacts.

Lithuania in a New Way –
Discover Lithuania for
Yourself
An attempt to find, to get to know or
at least to touch “other” Lithuania is
a serious intellectual challenge for those who want
to learn something new. Lithuania is a country with
many old, long forgotten and very young, timevarying stages of history.
You will see things no one else will show you: the
Sudervė Bell, the church and the oldest oak-tree in
Dūkštai, Ukmergė Church of Ss. Peter and Paul and
the bell tower.
You will visit Zarasai – a place that is famous not
only for its natural resources (a great number of
lakes) but also forms valuable cultural heritage
(Sėlių Square, Neo-Baroque Church of the
Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a unique
spot – Didžioji Island on Lake Zarasas). We will
also stop in a small place called Stelmužė (Tower of
Slaves, Church of the Holy Cross – now museum of
ecclesiastical art,
a bell tower), drop by at Kvintiškės to see the place
of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
We suggest having a look at post-Soviet Vilnius – a
city with imprints of wild capitalism. You will visit
Verkiai Regional Park, recreational zone “Žalieji
ežerai” (“the Green Lakes”), suburbs: Žvėrynas,
Lazdynai and Kalvarijų, Antakalnis, Montmartre of
Vilnius – Užupis.

varying difficulty.
You will see the Curonian Spit, a sundial, a fisherman’s homestead, will visit the Sea Museum and Dolphinarium, and in Nida you
will go up the Hill of Witches, stroll along the amber bay and sand dunes.
Kaunas will impress you with its location (the city is situated on the confluence of two greatest rivers, Neris and Nemunas), as
well as with its Old Town, cathedrals and churches. The zoo and the Museum of Lithuanian Aviation are also well worth your
attention.
