Bell Tower of Vilnius Cathedral

The Bell Tower is a must-see if you're in Vilnius. It's located right next to the Cathedral and gives you a chance to climb up and take in some incredible 360-degree views of the city. There are multiple levels with interesting displays along the way, including access to the old bells. The steps are manageable and the climb adds to the experience. It does get colder and windier as you go higher, so be prepared for that. Timing your visit around sunset makes it even better. Definitely worth a visit.

Enter the place around 11:30 and your ears will ring! Nah, just kidding but really cool spot to find yourself! You could observe the bells working and all at noon, and I was right there. With earplugs I don't think I would have left the upper floors. The bells really get going after a while, slightly frightening as how much speed they pick up. Great views.

Fantastic bell tower. We went up just before 5pm which coincided with the 5 o'clock chimes. We then enjoyed listening to the peeling of the bells, sounding out for about five minutes. Lovely building, steep stairs and good value. Great view of the Christmas Market below!

Next to the cathedral is the Vilnius Cathedral Bell Tower, a historical symbol proudly overlooking the Cathedral Square. Dating back to the 13th and 16th centuries, this iconic tower beautifully combines Gothic and Baroque styles and rises to a height of 52 meters (57 meters including the cross). Climbing the tower is an experience not to be missed, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of Vilnius and its surroundings. Inside, you will discover fascinating displays about the history of the tower and the cathedral bells.

This bell tower is under reconstruction and still stands after 600 years ago, one of Vilnius oldest buildings. We entered for a mere senior price of Euro 4. Great tour. Unfortunately we could not visit the crypts today. And the view from the tower was challenged by rain but worth the 100 step climb in Cathedral Square near the cathedral Lots of steps to ascend this historical building

The Bell Tower of Vilnius Cathedral is a fascinating piece of the city’s past. Walking inside, you can feel how important this tower once was in regulating daily life through its bells and clock. It’s a calm, meaningful visit that adds depth to any time spent in Cathedral Square. 🔔🕰️

The crypt tour is an interesting way to spend an hour, full of stories about Lithuanian history. The guide was positive and friendly, but seemed to lack experience, forgot a few details.

It was the first place we visited and it was very beautiful. Unfortunately it was in reconstruction during our visit, but it didn’t take much from beauty of this building. In the evening we were able to see all kind of shows near this building. It was our meeting point during our whole trip. I really liked it.
