Christ's Resurrection Church

This Roman Catholic basilica in Kaunas is the largest basilica church in the Baltic states. Visitors go here to view its grand architecture and the scale of its interior. Consecrated in 2004, the building serves as a significant religious and architectural landmark in the city.

Getting There

The church is located within walking distance of the Kaunas city centre. Depending on your starting point downtown, the walk typically takes between 5 and 15 minutes.

Visit Duration
