    Central meeting place in Vilnius.

      The Vilnius Cathedral of St. Stanislaus and St. Ladislaus (Lithuanian Vilniaus Šv. vyskupo Stanislovo ir Šv. Vladislovo arkikatedra bazilika, short "arkikatedra" or Vilniaus katedra) is the Roman Catholic cathedral of the Archdiocese of Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. Since 1985 it has been elevated to the rank of a minor basilica. It is the parish church and the main church in the 1st Vilnius Deanery of the Vilnius Archdiocese.

      The church is located at the foot of the Castle Hill of the Upper Castle on Cathedral Square in Vilnius's Old Town and is therefore on historical ground. There has been a settlement here since the earliest times, so the church is closely linked to Lithuanian history. Coronations of Lithuanian grand dukes took place here, many Lithuanian dignitaries were buried here.

      The basilica in its current form was designed by Laurynas Gucevičius in the classicist style and was completed in 1801. As with many churches in the Baltic States, its bell tower stands separately.

      The church is dedicated to St. Stanislaus, Bishop of Kraków, and St. Ladislaus I, King of Hungary, two important supporters of the Catholic Church in east-central Europe in the 11th century (Wikipedia).

        Anyone who goes to Vilnius must have seen the place steeped in history. This is where the 2 million human chain for the independence of the Baltic states started in the 90s. The cathedral seems sublime and friendly to me. Take a look yourself!
