Overview
Gediminas Castle Tower is a quintessential Vilnius landmark, offering breathtaking 360-degree views of the Old Town and modern city skyline. Visitors can ascend the hill via a steep cobblestone path or a funicular, with the observation deck being a highly recommended spot for watching the sunset. Inside, the tower houses a small museum—part of the Lithuanian National Museum—with exhibits on the city's history, including a notable installation on the Baltic Way. While some visitors find the €8 tower entrance fee overpriced for the sparse exhibits, many agree the panoramic views from the free-to-access hilltop are nearly as impressive.
