Bell Tower of St. John's Church

Apžvalgos vieta, Vilniaus apskritis

Vilnius University St. The bell tower of St. John's Church is a good vantage point over the Old Town of Vilnius and the tallest building in the Old Town. The VU Museum declares that the bell tower is 68 m high, and the observation deck can be reached by 193 authentic wooden steps or an elevator. Go Vilnius presents it as a place to have a bird's eye view of the rooftops of the Old Town of Vilnius. In addition to the panorama, the bell tower also has an important educational aspect: on the second floor, there is a Foucault pendulum that shows the rotation of the Earth around its axis. Before going, it is worth checking seasonal opening hours, tickets and whether the bell tower is closed for events or maintenance.
