Konrado kavinė, Historic cafe in Laisvės Avenue, Kaunas, Lithuania
The cafe occupies the ground floor of a two-story brick building designed by architect Jonas Virakas, featuring a fountain and gypsum statue.
Established in 1862, the cafe gained prominence when brothers Leonid and Max Konrad took ownership in 1920 and transformed it into a refined establishment.
Between 1920 and 1940, the cafe served as a central meeting point for Lithuanian writers, artists, musicians, and journalists who gathered for intellectual discussions.
Located at Laisvės Avenue 45, the establishment offered affordable black coffee and operated primarily during daytime hours from 12:00 to 15:00.
The cafe hosted performances by notable musicians including Alexander Vertinsky and Daniel Pomerantz Orchestra during its golden age in the interwar period.
