    The original small wooden Catholic church in Palanga was built around 1540 at the behest of Grand Duchess Anna Jagiellon. Another cruciform church with a tower and bell tower was built in 1590 at the initiative of the then rulers of Lithuania. In 1767, the wooden church was reconstructed and stood for 140 years.
    In 1897, according to plans by Swedish architect Karl Eduard Strandmann, construction of a new church in the neo-Gothic style began next to the old church, which was consecrated in 1906 and completed in 1907. After the completion of a new church made of brick masonry with a 24-meter spire, the old wooden church was demolished. (Wikipedia)

      Did you know? The church tower is adapted for tourism purposes, there is an observation deck with an area of about 18 sq. M. m. Through the windows you can admire the panorama of the city, the sea and see the bells of impressive size up close.
