The castle at the confluence of the Nemunas and Neris rivers was built in the 14th century to defend against the onslaught of crusaders. This is not only one of the first stone castles in Lithuania, but also the only one that has two rows of defensive walls.
The church of St. George has remained gothic despite all reconstructions after wars and conflagrations. This shrine of late gothic style is one of the five churches built between 1495 and 1510 which belong to the national heritage of genuine Lithuanian architecture.
The Church of St. George the Martyr is one of the first churches in Kaunas Old Town. Its building stands in Confluence Park (Santakos Park) in front of Kaunas Castle. Kaunas Bernardine Monastery is situated next to the church.
Kaunas City Hall is located in the former Lithuanian capital Kaunas and is one of three historically preserved city halls in Lithuania. The City Hall is located on the historic City Hall Square in the Old Town of Kaunas. The city hall tower is 53 meters high.

David was our tour guide, we explored the city from the castle to Laisvés Avenue. - we heard stories and also seen where Napolean's army crossed the Lithuanian border. We were taken on a trip through history, saw beautiful buildings in the old town, street art and also the culinary delights which are in abundance in Kaunas. Well worth a visit ask for David you wont be disappointed definitely a 5 star tour.
It was asked several times whether the tour must be in German (so I had reserved) or could be in English. I had reacted and asked to leave it with German, only if it was not possible otherwise then in English (a person in the small group does not know English). The tour was confirmed and the night before the agreed date the tour was cancelled by the operator. We had rented a car, booked a hotel according to plan and a restaurant for lunch and could now see where we were staying. With ChatGPT we created a 3 hour tour ourselves. Quite a bust in terms of the host of the tour.
