Visit Kiemo Galerija Kaunas has a plethora of Street Art and even its own street art festival. But, if you're on limited time and just want to get a flavour then stop by the Kiemo Galerija or the Court Yard Gallery. This Street Art Yard was one of my favourite places in the whole city and really defies the concept of a traditional gallery or reality itself! It was originally set up by Vytenis Jakas when he moved into the area and was annoyed about the lack of community spirit. He felt that modernisation is alienating neighbourhoods and so asked his neighbours for their stories and photos of residents who used to live there. #4. Star Seeder This was originally an illegal piece of artwork, made on a statue outside of the Kaunas War Museum. But, it won a competition and was loved so much it was revived! Star Seeder sees the statue of a man sowing seeds also become a star seeder by night. You have to check it out after the sun goes down. #3. Visit Christ's Resurrection Church Once you reach the top of Žaliakalnis Hill on the Funicular, you must head on over to the Resurrection church.Or, if you're feeling like some exercise you can climb up here the traditional way by the steep stairs. This Roman Catholic Church is the largest Basilica church in the Baltics. As well as its architecture the church has a colourful story. The construction started in 1934 and was declared a masterpiece of modern architecture. Approximately 1 million litas were spent to build the church. Unfortunately, in the Soviet Era it was confiscated by the government. Stalin decreed that it would be used as a factory and the crucifix and any religious parts of this building were taken down. It was then used as a radio factory until Lithuanian independence. Once the awakening happened it then switched hands back to a church. Funding was brought in to reconstruct it to its original glory and it was then consecrated in 2004. As well as being a religious house today, it's used for community gatherings. #2. Take a bus to the Pažaislis Monastery I was gutted that I didn't have enough time to see the Pažaislis Monastery. But, it closed early on a Saturday and it was going to take me another 45 minutes to reach there by bus! So, I put it on the list for next time. The famous Pažaislis Monastery is the largest monastery complex in Lithuania and was originally founded in 1662. It is also one of the finest examples of Italian Baroque architecture in the country. It was originally built as a Roman Catholic church for the Order of the Camaldolese Hermits by Krzysztof Zygmunt Pac who was a nobleman of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. #1. The hidden Church of St. Gertrude As you're wandering through the Old Town, you may stumble across the Church of St. Gertrude. It can be found through a gate on Laisves aleja. The style of this church reminded me of the Church of St Anne in Vilnius as it was built in the same Gothic brickwork style. I later found out it is one of the oldest Brick Gothic churches in Europe. The exact date of the church is unknown but historians believe it was built in the early 15th century and it was decreed by the Grand Duke of Lithuania Alexander to be the parish church of Kaunas. Many people visit to look upon the ancient The crucifix, one of the most valuable monuments in the city. It's a little bit hard to locate but when you do find it, it's spectacular!
