Church of St. Johns at Vilnius University Visited on 1/10/2019 The church is a part of Vilnius University complex since 1579. It took nearly 40 years to build, and completed in 1426, and is dedicated to both St John the Baptist and St John the Evangelist. The bell tower of the church is one of the tallest buildings in the Vilnius Old Town at 68 metres. The interior of St. Johns church is richly ornamented. Some of the most beautiful things here are the rococo styled main altar, the golden St. Victor’s altar. The organ of the Church of St. Johns was the most famous one in Lithuania. Besides being a place of worship, diplomas are awarded here, and various concerts and festivals are held. At the end of the academic year, the church hosts the biggest celebration of Vilnius University students.

The layout of the Church of St. Johns still reflects its original Gothic structure. It is a 28x69 m hall church with three naves and seven asymmetrical chapels. The tower, consisting of 5 gradually decreasing portions, is the tallest building of Vilnius Old Town (69 m). The central focus of the church interior is a composition of 10 presbytery altars

Very nice church inside Vilnius university. Free to visit during daytime. Special place for granting an university diploma and accepting important quests

St.Johns Church is a must see when in Vilnius. The beautiful altaer is amazing and also the other alters on the side. Also just out of the Church there is a bell tower that is also worth seeing.

Very beautiful, in the yard of university

Beautiful church, we visited a concert there. The sound was phenomenal.

Beautiful church. Typical Barok style. Worth the visit, especially if you are going to the University terrain anyway.

Lovely church in the middle of the city. It is part of the Vilnius University complex. Lots of concerts and events take place here

Beautiful church, free entrance

Must see when you visit Vilnius University ensemble. There is also a little museum of the most important topics of VU history in former sacristy (entrance on the left side by the Altar) and the first Adam Mickievicz's bust, built in 1898, when the Poet was forbidden in the Russian Empire

This Church is inside the university of Vilnius. At first, I didn't find it but once you dig into the building you start finding things :D. BEAUTIFUL

One of the most famous Catholic churches in the heart of Vilnius) You should visit it when you're walking around Vilnius university. The church looks majestic and has a richly decorated altarpiece. A high ceiling, massive columns, light colours make you feel serene and calm.

One of the most beautiful church in Vilnius really cost to visit.

Inside the University and free of charge, it has several baroque chapels and altars, it is worth a short visit while you visit the complex. Entrance is free for individuals or couplrs, groups have to pay a fee.

(Translated by Google) This is a church - a museum. We learned a lot about the history of the University. (Original) Tai bažnyčia - muziejus. Sužinojom daug naujo apie Universiteto istoriją.

The inside is nice and the lighting is good, but the seats are very uncomfortable for watching performances, like a small concert.

Beautiful, peaceful, mesmerizing church.

Nice

Situated in part of the the university complex. Exquisite decor.

Fantastic view outside. It is possible to see a big part of the city. A bit difficult to climb the last steps to the tower top but the view is worth it. The view inside is interesting too. Maybe just price could be less.

Beautiful church , my brother had his weeding there and it was like from the movies

Definitely one of the most beautiful churches I've seen in Europe

für 5 Euro kann man auf den Turm, nach einer Treppe fährt ein moderner Aufzug, zur Aussichtsplattform muss man dann noch eine steile Treppe hoch, Lohn ist ein Top-Ausblick auf die Altstadt, lohnt sich auf jeden Fall

So many beautiful churches for such a small,proud flourishing nation

Impressive church itself. The worship is very special, especially with gospel chorus each Sunday 1 p.m.

Lovely baroque church with some finely crafted statuary. And the biggest organ in Lithuania from what I understand

Great church but a bit confusing to get into entrance is in the grand square of the university however well worth a visit for the ten pink altars

Beautiful Church built in the walls of the oldest university in Vilnius it has a classic style not so retouched like other countries full of gold here is simple style but nice

Beautiful interior, warm. Gospel at Sunday 13 h service

Majestic yet simple
