Good Shepherd church, Dainava

Good Shepherd Church is a parish church in Kaunas serving the Dainava district with contemporary design, featuring concrete construction, large windows, and a cross-shaped floor plan. The structure spans multiple levels and contains various interior spaces for worship and community gatherings.

The structure was built in the 1950s as Dainava developed into a residential district following World War II. Construction of the church was part of establishing community infrastructure for the expanding urban area.

The church functions as a gathering place for the local community to celebrate religious services and participate in faith education. It anchors social and spiritual life in the Dainava neighborhood.

The building is easily accessible through the eastern entrance and operates as an active place of worship with regular services and community events. Visitors should plan visits during scheduled service times and dress respectfully when attending worship.

The building employs carefully positioned windows that direct natural light through the interior in shifting patterns as the day progresses. This design feature creates changing visual impressions and subtle variations in how the space feels at different times of day.
