The first castle was built mid-14th century at the confluence of the rivers Nemunas and Neris.
Church of St George
A wooden church was built outside the castle in 1471, then rebuilt in Gothic redbrick from 1492.
Cathedral of Sts Peter & Paul
This is first documented in 1413, in the reign of Vytautas the Great, but construction dragged on to 1624, nicely in time to get smashed up by the Russians and Swedes.
