Town Hall, Town hall in Old Town district, Kaunas, Lithuania

This town hall is a six-story white limestone building with a tower reaching 53 meters (174 feet) in height. Its architecture blends Renaissance and Baroque styles throughout.

Construction of the current building began in 1542 following a major fire that destroyed the previous structure. Extensive renovations took place in the 18th century under architect J. Matekeris.

The building serves as a civil registry office where wedding ceremonies take place in its ceremonial halls. A museum in the basement tells the story of the city through its collections.

The building is open daily for visitors to explore the museum collections and see the architectural details. Guided tours help you learn more about how this structure has served the city.

Locals call it the 'White Swan' because its bright limestone facade stands out from the medieval buildings surrounding it in Old Town. This nickname has stuck through generations.
