About

The Vilnius Castles are a complex of several buildings located on the left bank of the Vilnia River: a noble stone retaining the spirit and atmosphere of centuries past.

The former residence of Lithuanian princes is now open to the general public: anyone wishing to visit can do so by walking a considerable distance on foot from the center of Vilnius.

Throughout the city's history, the position and condition of these buildings have changed countless times - the first mentions of the existence of the castle complex date back to the beginning of the 14th century. Alas, the castles have reached our time in a semi-ruined state - the crusades took their toll.

However, to the joy of everyone, after lengthy reconstruction works, Lithuania has rightfully snatched these monuments of great history from the jaws of death.
