Gediminas  Tower

Gediminas’ Tower is the only remaining part of the Upper Castle in Vilnius.

You can climb to the top on foot. 

In 2003, a funicular railway started operating in Vilnius, which takes people from the foot of Gediminas Hill to the top. It takes 35 seconds for the funicular railway to cover a 71-meter long distance, and the entire ascending process, including getting on and off the funicular, takes about one minute.

From the tower there is a beautiful view of the old part of the city. The tower is an important symbol of the Lithuan state and it is also represented on the Litas.

The view of the city is very attractive, rich of monuments, churches and parks.
