About

In addition to the grandeur of Baroque buildings, Vilnius is home to structures built in the finest traditions of Gothic style - one of which is the Bernardine Church (Church of St. Francis of Assisi).

The ancient church is located in the very center of Vilnius, surrounded by parks with fountains: from the outside, the temple is majestic and somber, but the interior decor is characterized by the complexity of forms and richness of decorations, unusual for Catholic churches. The extraordinary beauty and refinement of the church are hard to confuse with other buildings - it is a must-visit for tourists and also an integral part of city walks for locals.

At Christmas, live goats can be seen at the entrance of the church, and services are held to the sound of guitars - the Bernardine Church surprises tourists with its uniqueness.
