St. Anne's Church

Santa Ana Church (St. Anne's Church, Vilnius) is a Roman Catholic church in the old town of Vilnius, Lithuania. It is located on the right bank of the Vilnius River (Vilnia River). Built in 1581. It is the most famous late Gothic building in Lithuania. The red brick structure is complicated. It is really beautiful in the building itself. It's also a special presence in the building. No wonder that even Napoleon liked the church of Santa Ana. It was originally a wooden structure. It was built by the Grand Duke of Lithuania for his Duchess Anna. It was destroyed in a fire in 1419. Now we see this Santa Ana church. The church is 1582 rebuilt, 22 meters high, 10 meters wide, all made of red bricks, only the church exterior wall uses 33 different shapes of bricks, which is a magical work. The whole structure of the church is quite complicated. There is a main tower at the top. There are several small spires next to it. It perfectly presents the Gothic complex and unique style. What needs to be mentioned outside is that the Church of Santa Ana is separated from the Church of St. Francis and St. Bernard in a block, separated by only one wall, and with doors that are interoperable, and because the color is consistent, it is easy to be considered a church. When you visit, remember to distinguish.

Although there are hundreds of churches in Vilnius, St. Anna's church is still the most special one. The only red brick building we can see is a typical Gothic church. There are many shapes of bricks. The top structure of the church is complex and exquisite, and it looks simple and exquisite.
