Trakai Castle in Vilnius: photos, reviews

About

Looking at Trakai Castle, one's imagination comes to life with scenes of medieval battles, tournaments, and feasts: armor and knights, fair maidens and powerful kings - all of that is a part of the past of this legendary building.

The largest and oldest castle in Lithuania is located in the town of Trakai - a Gothic fortress sprawled on an island, connected to the mainland by a single bridge. In 1409, the complex was the most formidable and fortified place in all of Lithuania, but later it lost its strategic and commercial significance.

Today, the castle has become a popular attraction and a welcoming place where one can learn about the history of the city or buy original souvenirs. The fortress has retained its mysterious appearance - at night, the castle is adorned with modern lighting and illumination.

Trakai Island Castle is a stunning historical site surrounded by beautiful lakes and nature. The castle itself is well-preserved and offers a fascinating glimpse into Lithuania’s medieval past. Walking through the courtyards and exhibitions, you really feel transported back in time. The views from the castle walls over the water are breathtaking, making it a great spot for photos. There are also boat rides available nearby, which add to the experience. The visitor center and museum have informative displays, and the whole area is very family-friendly.
