Description

Šv. Mykolo g. 9, tel. 261 0456

This is the only complex of Renaissance buildings in Vilnius. The interior of the church is very rich and at the same time very solemn. The tombstone of Leonas Sapiega and both his wives is located near the marble high altar. This is the biggest memorial structure in Lithuania with the features of both Baroque and mannerism. On the top of the bell tower there is an iron weather vane depicting the Archangel Michael treading on the devil.
