Church of the Assumption in Pivašiūnai

Church of the Assumption in Pivašiūnai, Catholic pilgrimage church in Pivašiūnai, Lithuania

The classical-style wooden church features a Latin cross plan with a portico supported by four brick columns and contains three interior naves.

The current wooden church was built in 1825 under Celestino Saraka's guidance after the previous structure burned down that same year.

The main altar displays a significant image of the Virgin Mary, which received its crown from Pope John Paul II in 1988.

The church holds regular services and maintains contact through phone number +370 315 29344, with information available at www.pivasiunai.lt.

Annual floral festivals take place at the church, which survived a severe storm in 2010 that damaged the courtyard but left the building intact.
