Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Vilnius, Baroque church in central Vilnius, Lithuania.

The red brick structure displays an ornate facade with architectural elements typical of eighteenth-century Baroque religious buildings in Lithuania.

Established in 1695 by the Visitation nuns, this religious site underwent multiple transformations through periods of Polish, Russian, and Soviet control.

The church stands as the first religious building dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in both Polish and Lithuanian territories.
