Presidential Palace of Lithuania, Official residence in Old Town, Lithuania

The Presidential Palace features white neoclassical columns, rectangular windows with decorative frames, and a symmetrical facade stretching along Universiteto Street.

Construction started in the 14th century after Grand Duke Jogaila granted land to the Vilnius Diocese, turning the building into an episcopal residence.

The palace exhibits architectural influences from both Russian and Lithuanian traditions through designs by Vasily Stasov and Laurynas Gucevicius during major renovations.

The presidential flag with national coat of arms indicates when the President of Lithuania is present in the palace or within city limits.

Napoleon Bonaparte directed his Russian campaign operations from this palace in 1812, organizing Lithuanian army units and establishing the Vilnius National Guard.
