Overview
The Monument to Grand Duke Gediminas is an impressive and historically significant landmark in Vilnius's bustling Cathedral Square. As a tribute to the city's founder, who ruled from 1316 to 1341 and expanded the Grand Duchy from the Baltic to the Black Sea, it's a must-see for history enthusiasts. Visitors appreciate its grand scale and central location, making it a popular spot for photography, especially at sunset. While most admire the tribute, some find its modern artistic style unappealing. The square itself is a lively hub, conveniently located near the Cathedral and Gediminas Tower.
