Saint Nicholas Church, Gothic church in Old Town, Kaunas, Lithuania
Saint Nicholas Church stands with an asymmetric layout, a single tower, and a masonry brick dome in the Old Town of Kaunas.
The construction of Saint Nicholas Church began in the 15th century, and in 1624 the Kaunas Marshal assigned it to the Benedictine Sisters.
The interior decorations were designed by Lithuanian artist Liudas Truikis, featuring intricate star-shaped and network vaults that demonstrate Gothic craftsmanship.
The church offers daily Blessed Sacrament adoration services except on Mondays, with regular religious ceremonies throughout the week.
In spring 2023, workers discovered long-lost canvas paintings of the 12 apostles by Liudas Truikis in the church attic.
