Event description:
October 12-13, 2023
In 2023, Vilnius turns 700. The first mention of Vilnius dates to the letter sent by the Grand Duke Gediminas to the cities of Lübeck, Bremen, and others on January 25, 1323. The official commemoration program ‘Vilnius – 700 years young’ by Vilnius City Municipality runs through the entire 2023.
Given the historical, cultural, and political significance of Vilnius to Lithuanians, Poles, Jews, Belarusians, and other nations, the 700th anniversary allows us to reflect on the role, space, and place of Vilnius in a European and broader context.
More information forthcoming.
