St. Nicholas Church, Vilnius : ウィキペディア英語版 | Church of St. Nicholas, Vilnius
St. Nicholas Church ((リトアニア語:Šv. Mikalojaus bažnyčia)) is the oldest surviving church in Lithuania, built in the Old Town of the capital city Vilnius. ==History==
Originally built in the 14th century, the church is mentioned in writing for the first time in 1387. In 1901-39 the Church of St. Nicholas was the only church in Vilnius where the mass was held in Lithuanian. By the same token it was a centre of Lithuanian culture (its famous dean Kristupas Čibiras was killed in 1942 during a bombing raid).〔Prof. Tomas Venclova, VILNIUS. R. Paknys Publishing House, ISBN 9986-830-48-6〕 During the Soviet occupation a statue of the patron of Vilnius, St. Christopher, was erected in the church orchard (sculptor Antanas Kmieliauskas, 1959); it was an obvious act of resistance, as the city's coat-of-arms with St. Christopher's figure was banned at that time.
