Pilsotas, Residential skyscraper in Gandrališkės district, Klaipėda, Lithuania.

The Pilsotas building rises 112 meters into the sky with 34 floors, featuring vertical glass bands on its western facade and horizontal window arrangements below.

Construction of the structure began in July 2005 on former military grounds, reaching completion in May 2007 as Lithuania's highest residential building.

The building's name comes from the medieval Curonian land Pilsāts, reflecting the historical connection to the region where it stands today.

The facade panels of the building exhibit color variations throughout the day, shifting between grey and green tones based on natural light conditions.
