Vilnius Televizijos Bokstas / Television Tower & views over Vilnius, Lithuania - 19th January, 2013
The Vilnius TV Tower (Vilniaus televizijos bokštas) is a 326.5 m (1,071 ft) tower in the Karoliniškės district of Vilnius, Lithuania. It is the tallest structure in Lithuania, and is occupied by the SC Lithuanian Radio and Television Centre (AB Lietuvos radijo ir televizijos centras).
The construction of the tower started on 31 May 1974 and finished on December 30, 1980. The weight of the whole structure is estimated at 25,000 to 30,000 metric tons (55,000,000--66,000,000 lb). The structure is composed of a concrete base, a 190 m (623 ft) long hollow reinforced concrete pipe, a reinforced concrete saucer, and a 136 m (446 ft) long steel spike. Radio transmitters are housed in the lower part of the concrete tower with antennas attached to the steel spike.
The TV tower played a major role in the events of 13 January 1991, when 14 unarmed civilians lost their lives and 700 were injured opposing the Soviet military seizure of the tower.
The observation deck 165 m (541 ft) from the ground houses the cafe Paukščių takas (Milky Way), and offers a picturesque view of the city and its surroundings, and sports a rotating platform that revolves once every 45 minutes. High-speed elevators reach the cafe from ground level in 40 seconds. On clear days, visibility can extend as far as Elektrėnai, a city approximately 40 km (25 mi) west, where power plants produced much of the electricity for Vilnius in Soviet times.
This film features external views of the tower, and the shrine to protestors who died opposing the Soviets in 1991, as well as views from the tower over the whole of the Vilnius area. This footage was taken over 90 minutes and has been speeded up time-lapse style against the original audio soundtrack. It highlights the Wintery snow covered landscape and setting late afternoon sun as the day turns to dusk. Finally night time views with the it up tower observation deck are featured.
TV TOWER Vilnius Lithuania
Estamos na torre de Televisão em Vilnius...
A Torre de TV Vilnius ( lituano : Vilniaus Televizijos Bokstas ) é uma 326,5 m (1.071 pés) torre no Karoliniškės microdistrict de Vilnius , Lituânia . É a estrutura mais alta da Lituânia, onde se encontra o Centro Lituano de Rádio e Televisão da LRT ( Lituânia : AB Lietuvos radijo ir televizijos centras ).
A torre foi projetada por V. Obydovas e a seção de engenharia por K. Balėnas. A construção da torre começou em 31 de maio de 1974 e terminou em 30 de dezembro de 1980. A construção foi financiada pelo 11º Plano Quinquenal da União Soviética, que destinou fundos para investimentos estratégicos na então SSR lituana. O peso de toda a estrutura é estimado em 25.000 a 30.000 toneladas métricas (55.000.000 a 66.000.000 libras). A estrutura é composta de uma base de concreto, um tubo de concreto reforçado com 190 m (623 pés) de comprimento , um disco de concreto armado e um espigão de aço com 136 m (446 pés) de comprimento. Os transmissores de rádio estão alojados na parte inferior da torre de concreto com antenas ligadas à ponta de aço.
A plataforma de observação a 165 m do solo abriga o café Paukščių takas (Inglês: Via Láctea ), oferece uma vista pitoresca da cidade e seus arredores, e ostenta uma plataforma rotativa que gira a cada 45 minutos. Elevadores de alta velocidade alcançam o café do nível do solo em 40 segundos. Em dias claros, a visibilidade pode se estender até Elektrėnai , uma cidade a aproximadamente 40 km a oeste, onde as usinas elétricas produziam grande parte da eletricidade para Vilnius nos tempos soviéticos.
A torre de TV desempenhou um papel importante nos eventos de 13 de janeiro de 1991 , quando 14 civis desarmados perderam suas vidas e 700 ficaram feridos em oposição à invasão militar soviética da torre. Um pequeno museu dedicado à batalha de janeiro de 1991 fica no térreo, e vários marcadores na área circundante indicam locais onde os cidadãos lituanos morreram enquanto tentavam manter o bloqueio contra as tropas soviéticas .

LRT EBU Lithuania January events archive
DOPESHEET
This is an archive commemorating 25th anniversary of January events in Lithuania when crowds of peaceful protesters resisted aggressive Soviet attempt to overthrow independent government.
Various events are held in Lithuania with the main ones planned on January 13 to commemorate 13 people who died when Soviets stormed TV station encircled by peaceful crowds 25 years ago.
As Lithuania became the first country that broke away from Soviet Union in 1990 March an economic hardship boosted by Soviet blockade followed. Inflation was skyrocketing in the begging of 1991.
Incited by Soviet Union Russian and Polish minority workers at Vilnius factories protested the government’s consumer goods price hikes at the begging of the year. Meanwhile supporters of Independence held their own demonstrations and Soviet government mounted a propaganda campaign designed to further ethnic strife.
On January 8 Soviet Union sent special military units to ensure Soviet order and revoke Lithuanian Independence. On January 11 military units began storming various institutions stating with National Defense Department and Press House building, injuring Lithuanian protesters who interfered. Following the attacks large crowds of people started to encircle the main strategic buildings.
During the night between January 12 and 13 Soviet soldiers stormed TV Station which retranslated the news to the world. Tanks drove straight through lines of people killing 13 civilians and injuring 1000. An additional civilian died at the scene due to a heart attack, and one Soviet soldier was killed by friendly fire.
A massive crowd encircled Parliament which could have been the next target praying and singing. Soviet military forces retreated instead of attacking and although military raids continued for several months there were no large open military encounters after the night of January 13 which was later claimed the day of Freedom Defenders.
A non violent defense by massive crowds of peaceful defenders remains of the central peace in the history of Singing Revolutions that broke down Soviet Union in a peaceful way without precedent.

Soldiers drive in the city when they want and how they want and they do whatever they wish.

January 12, 1991 Soviet tanks ride as people gather near Parliament to defent it
Recent, Soundbite (Lithuanian), AUDRIUS BUTKEVICIUS, Director of Defense Department during 1991 January events:
We decided that the state will be defended by civilian people that means a non violent defense based on civilians and later we did implement this decision during January 12 and January 13. This defense gave an extraordinary effect when it comes to facing aggression and later destroying Soviet Union as well.

Archive, 1991 January, Soundbite (Lithuanian), VYTAUTAS LANDSBERGIS, Chairman of Lithuanian Supreme Council-Reconstituent Parliament during 1991 January events:
Dear people, we are probably loosing Television and Radio. This is a very painful loss in our situation and our fight, but this is far from over. They might think today it is enough for them, but they might also take more buildings each day.
Landsbergis arrive
Recent, Soundbite (Lithuanian), VYTAUTAS LANDSBERGIS, Chairman of Lithuanian Supreme Council-Reconstituent Parliament during 1991 January events:
Back then , a thought came into my mind, a short consideration, what should I do when they would brake into parliament. (Cutaway) Should I shoot, just like Salvador Alende and die? Should I fight back? Or should I not shoot? There was a consideration and I had decided that let them do what they wish. It is I am who is at his post, these are my duties and I will stay here till the very end.
January 1991, people gathered near Parliament to defend it sing together

USSR October Revolution Parade & Riots Vilnius 1989
During the annual celebrations of the anniversary of the October Revolution in 1989, what begins as a typical military parade turns into a full blown riot by the locals in Vilnius, the capital of (at the time) the Lithuanian SSR. Anti Soviet sentiment was very strong and the independence movement was in full swing. This video highlights the chaotic and decaying situation inside the Soviet Union at the time. The year 1989 truly was the beginning of the end as Moscow began losing more control over the Union Republics, and the economy began to tank.
