1.A city about to turn 702 years young
Vilnius Old Town is UNESCO-listed because of its “outstanding universal value.” Many of its original architecture is preserved, with beautiful examples of the Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Classical styles all coexisting in a medieval layout that’s splendidly green and alive.
The city is gearing up for its 702nd birthday in 2025, and it’s ready to prove that its bones are still young by hosting two birthday parties each year. Get ready for a celebration!
