Vilnius St. Virgin Maria 's Church

Tourist attraction • Catholic church

👍👍 Well now it is a museum. Very unusual museum. It’s like an ancient cathedral in the medieval centuries. Looks really great. It open and you get in for free. Very unusual experience. If you’ll be in Vilnius - must visit this place. People often mention church,

    A truly unique space. This 18th-century baroque church was converted into a vegetable warehouse in the 1960s. The resulting brutalist concrete interior makes it a perfect arts space. Don't miss the low vaulted arches of the crypt!

    Typical Lithuania church with a bare interior; still really interesting understanding the history and a fantastic pancake restaurant. It was a very atmospheric setting.

    Also known as the Church of St. Mary of the Assumption, is a magnificent example of Gothic architecture. Its soaring spires and intricate façade dominate the city's skyline.

    Beautiful church with only the columns features left. While in UK churches are converted to bar or apartment for profit here it was converted as storage. Some very interesting installation

    It's really a shame, the church is devastated and closed.

    Almost 300 year old church ⛪, to be frank it was scary to step inside, it needs renovation badly... But till that moment you can try to feel what happened to him over centuries :)

    Durch den Umbau zum Lagerraum wurde zu Sowjetzeiten der Charakter der Kirche durch Betonpfeiler und zwei im Hauptschiff eingezogene Zwischendecken völlig zerstört. Bis Dezember 2018 stand sie leer und dem Verfall preisgegeben, jetzt ist das Dach repariert und es gibt wieder eine zahlreiche Gemeinde, die sich um die Instandsetzung bemüht. Führungen durch alle Stockwerke und die Kellerräume finden immer Donnerstags statt. Wir kamen an einem Freitag, als eigentlich geschlossen war. Eine sehr freundliche ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiterin, die an diesem Tag für eine Hochzeit und eine Taufe anwesend war, hat trotzdem die Kirche geöffnet, uns sehr viel zum Schicksal des Gotteshauses erzählt und uns noch zum Kaffee eingeladen. Es ist ein Erlebnis der besonderen Art, schwer in Worte zu fassen. Geht hin und seht's Euch an.
