11 Sights to See in Kaunas, Lithuania, Kaunas, Lithuania

When I decided to visit the city of Kaunas in central Lithuania, I hadn’t really given much thought to what there was to see and do in the city. I had included Kaunas, Lithuania’s second largest city, in my itinerary because I like to try to see at least a few different destinations in a country to gain a great understanding of the place. While I was already keen on visiting the Curonian Spit and Vilnius, I didn’t really know of any other spots.

While researching how to get between Lithuania and Poland, it became clear that Kaunas was a necessary stop along the way. Some very brief research later and I decided to make it my last stop on my trip through Lithuania. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by Kaunas, from its lively atmosphere to the many landmarks I soon came to learn about. So here is my list of the essential sights to see in the city of Kaunas.
