The House of Perkūnas, a splendid example of Gothic architecture, nestles in the heart of Kaunas old town. It has evolved from a 15th-century traders' guild house into an iconic emblem of the city's historical narrative. Its name, rooted in Baltic mythology, is attributed to a sculptural artifact of the thunder god Perkūnas found within. Though primarily a brick structure, the house's intricate façades are a canvas for photography enthusiasts, showcasing a blend of medieval craftsmanship and spiritual mystique. Its proximity to the confluence of the Nemunas and Neris rivers offers a scenic backdrop, enriching your shots with natural light and contrasting textures. Inside, the various exhibits and occasional cultural events provide a glimpse into Lithuania's rich cultural heritage, making it a pivotal point of interest for capturing the essence of Kaunasic history and architecture.
