Vilnius is the capital of Lithuania. Although Vilnius is often called a baroque city, here you will find some buildings of gothic, renaissance, and other styles. Like the narrow curved streets and cozy courtyards are in the medieval style.
The Old Town is the historical centre of Vilnius and it's also an UNESCO World Heritage site. The main sights of the city are the Gediminas Castle and the Cathedral Square. They are symbols of the capital.
Trakai is a small town in southeastern Lithuania, 23-km southwest of Vilnius. It is built on a narrow, elongated peninsula dividing Lakes Galvė, Totoriškės and Luka. These lakes form part of an interconnected group that consists of at least 30 larger or smaller lakes.
The castle is sometimes referred to as Little Marienburg. The construction of the stone castle was begun in the 14th century by Kęstutis, and around 1409 major works were completed by his son Vytautas the Great, who died in this castle in 1430. Trakai was one of the main centres of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the castle held great strategic importance.

Vilnius, City Walk - Lithuania 4K Travel Channel
The starting point for our city walk is the Cathedral of St. Stanislaus. This time take a look inside, where a Holy Mass just takes place
From the cathedral, we continue to the funicular tramway which brings us to the Gediminas mountain. We pass the National Museum of Lithuania, in front of which stands a monument to the Grand Duke Mindaugas. He is regarded as the founder of Lithuania and even received the royal crown at the instigation of Pope Innocent IV, in 1253. He was murdered in 1263 because he had lost the support of the population.
From the top of Gediminas Mountain, we have a wonderful panoramic view over Vilnius. Countless churches determine the cityscape. The steepness of the flanks of the mountain gives a sense of how difficult it was for attackers to take over the fortress. Gediminas' Tower on the mountain now houses a museum and is the landmark of Vilnius.
Back at the foot of the mountain we go back to the cathedral and pass the castle. From there we turn into Pilies gatve. It is the main shopping street and the tourist center of Vilnius.
Along the street you find plenty of restaurants and shops. Approximately in the middle of the road, the Literary Street branches off to the left.
Innumerable bookstores and antiquarians lined the narrow lane once. The Lithuanian writer Adam Mickiewicz also lived here temporarily.
Egle Vertelkaite, the curator of the Modern Art Center, launched the project Literatų Street in 2009. About 150 artists pay homage to writers and poets who influenced Lithuanian literature. Therefore they created on the house walls about 200 tiles and plaques made of different materials, such as ceramics, wood, or glass. Also some unknown literati are immortalized here.
The road ends at the Cathedral of the Theotokos in the Maironio gatve.
From here it is only a few steps to Uzupio gatve. The bridge over the Vilnia leads to Uzupis, one of the oldest districts of Vilnius. After Lithuania's independence, it became more and more of a bohemian district. In 1997, the artists proclaimed the independent Republic of Uzupis.

Ausgangspunkt für unseren Stadtspaziergang in Vilnius ist die Kathedrale St. Stanislaus. Diesmal werfen einen Blick hinein, wo gerade eine Messe stattfindet.
Von der Kathedrale gehen wir weiter zur Schrägseilbahn die uns auf den Gediminas-Berg bringt. Dabei passieren wir das Nationalmuseum von Litauen, vor dem ein Denkmal des Großfürsten Mindaugas steht. Er gilt als Gründer Litauens und erhielt auf Veranlassung von Papst Innozenz IV im Jahre 1253 sogar die Königskrone. 1263 wurde er ermordet, da er den Rückhalt in der Bevölkerung verloren hatte.
Oben auf dem Gediminas-Berg angekommen, bietet sich uns ein herrlicher Panoramablick über Vilnius. Unzählige Kirchen bestimmen das Stadtbild. Die Steilheit der Flanken des Berges vermittelt ein Gefühl wie schwer es Angreifer hatten, die Festung einzunehmen. Der Gediminas-Turm auf dem Berg beinhaltet heute ein Museum und ist das Wahrzeichen von Vilnius.
Zurück am Fuß des Berges gehen wir zurück zur Kathedrale und passieren das Schloss. Von dort biegen wir in die Pilies gatve ein. Sie ist die Haupteinkaufstrasse und das touristische Zentrum von Vilnius.
Zahlreiche Restaurants und Geschäfte säumen die Straße. Ungefähr in der Mitte des Verlaufs zweigt die Literatenstraße links ab.
Einst reihten sich in der schmalen Gasse unzählige Buchhandlungen und Antiquariate. Aber auch der litauische Schriftsteller Adam Mickiewicz lebte zeitweise hier.
Egle Vertelkaite, Kuratorin des Modern Art Center startete 2009 das Projekt Literatų Straße. Etwa 150 Künstler erinnern an bedeutende litauische Schriftsteller und Dichter. Hierzu schufen sie an den Hauswänden ca. 200 Kacheln und Gedenktafeln aus verschiedenen Materialien, wie Keramik, Holz, oder Glas. Auch einige unbekannte Literaten sind hier verewigt.
Die Straße mündet bei der Kathedrale der Himmelfahrt der Gottesmutter in die Maironio gatve.
Von hier aus sind es nur wenige Schritte zur Uzupio gatve. Die Brücke über die Vilnia führt nach Uzupis, einem der ältesten Viertel von Vilnius. Nach der Unabhängigkeit Litauens entwickelte es sich mehr und mehr zum Künstlerviertel. 1997 wurde Uzupis von den Künstlern zu unabhängigen Republik Uzupis erklärt.
