Church of the Assumption, Veliuona, Renaissance church in Veliuona, Lithuania.
The Church of the Assumption features a quadrangular tower divided into three tiers and incorporates both Renaissance and Gothic architectural elements throughout its structure.
Chancellor Albrycht Stanisław Radziłł constructed this stone church between 1636 and 1644, replacing an earlier wooden structure established by Grand Duke Vytautas in 1421.
The interior of the church displays decorative plaster nervure patterns and an annular vault containing the coat-of-arms of Grand Duke Vytautas and the Radziłł family.
Located at Draugystės Street 1 in Veliuona, the church remains open to visitors who can explore its three-nave rectangular hall and seven altars.
The church tower's upper section underwent reconstruction after World War I damage, while retaining its original Renaissance pilasters instead of traditional Gothic abutments.
