The Shrine of Divine Mercy

Home to the original Divine Mercy painting, this serene Vilnius shrine offers a profound spiritual experience with 24/7 access for prayer and adoration.

Overview

Tucked away in Vilnius's Old Town, the Shrine of Divine Mercy is a cherished sanctuary housing the one-and-only original painting of the Merciful Jesus, created under St. Faustina's guidance. Visitors describe a deeply peaceful and profound spiritual atmosphere, a quiet escape from the city's bustle, enhanced by beautiful music during mass. Open 24 hours a day for perpetual adoration, this small church is a powerful destination for pilgrims and tourists alike. While it can become crowded, especially during services, the unique, round-the-clock access offers a rare opportunity for quiet contemplation at any hour. Masses are held in multiple languages, including Lithuanian and Polish.
