Wooden Palūšė St. Joseph’s Church greets its visitors in Palūšė village. Everything here is taking place in the natural surroundings – close to many lakes and rivers that are intertwined with each other.

Palūšė Church stands out in such a landscape, as it was built without any iron nails, using only an axe. The distinctive architectural forms that were created with an octagonal bell tower (the only one like this in Lithuania) will impress even those admirers of the old architecture who have already seen everything. Moreover, this bell tower reminds of observation towers from the ancient wooden castles.
