20의 카우나스 카운티가지 명소 & 주요 장소

또 다른 하이라이트는 카우나스의 성 베드로와 성 바오로 대성당입니다. 이곳은 구시가지에서 가장 큰 건물이며 1921년부터 리투아니아 추기경의 대성당이었습니다. 이 교회는 고딕 양식으로 지어졌으며 예수의 십자가 처형 장면을 묘사하는 바로크 양식의 주 제단을 갖추고 있습니다. 17세기 르네상스 고딕 양식의 목조 조각 예배당이나 십자형 궁륭이 있는 성구실을 볼 가치가 있습니다.

도시의 하이라이트는 이전 시청입니다. 완전히 흰색으로 지어졌기 때문에 백조라고 불립니다. 이 건물의 특징은 르네상스와 후기 바로크 양식의 건축 요소입니다. 높이 53미터의 탑은 도시의 상징이며 야생 황소 모양의 바람개비로 장식되어 있습니다.

Usually, one, occasionally two, named saints are the patron saint of a church – and thus also of the parish it serves. However, this church in Kaunas took a different approach: it was not dedicated to one of the – almost countless – saints, but to Jesus Christ himself, specifically to his resurrection. This special and relatively rare patronage broadens the Christian perspective from the cross of Good Friday to the Easter perspective of hope: for suffering and death are only seemingly the end, but – in the infinite love of the triune God – they are overcome by the resurrection of Jesus, which we as Christians also hope for, leading to eternal life.

The castle was originally built in 1367.

Beautiful town hall, called the "White Swan" by the locals.

No matter what you believe in or who you worship, the confluence of two Lithuania’s biggest rivers, Nemunas and Neris, is a place to restore your energy levels. It’s also sometimes called the birthplace of Kaunas. Some sources say this is where a grove of Milda, the Lithuanian goddess of love, courting, friendship and freedom, once was – maybe this is why the place has always been so popular among romantics. Setting a date at the confluence is a very traditional and special thing to do! Every Thursday, a Romuvian (Romuva is a contemporary continuation of the traditional ethnic religion of the Baltic peoples, more than 5,000 people consider themselves Romuvians) mass is held at the aukuras [fire altar] in the Confluence park.

Not Henry Wilson but Jonas Vileišis (January 3, 1872 – June 1, 1942) who was a Lithuanian politician. From September 30, 1921 until July 2, 1931, he served as mayor of Kaunas, the temporary capital of Lithuania. Under his direction Kaunas grew rapidly and became a truly modern city. A water and wastewater system, costing over 15 million Lithuanian litas, was put in place; the city expanded from 18 square km to 40; more than 2,500 buildings were built, including three modern bridges over the Neris and Nemunas rivers. All the city streets were paved, horse-drawn transportation was replaced with modern bus lines, new suburbs were planned and built, and new parks and squares were established. The foundations for a social security system were laid, three new schools were built, and new public libraries, including the Vincas Kudirka library, were established. He maintained many contacts in other European cities and as a result Kaunas was an active participant in European urban life.
