Right next to the headquarters of the European Southern Observatory in Garching, the ESO Supernova Planetarium is an interactive learning centre for all age groups. The highlight is the ultra-modern planetarium with its 360-degree dome. A total of ten different guided tours are offered in German and English, on which visitors can find out more about science and the nature of the universe.

This is not an ordinary oak grove, as its name suggests, but the largest in whole urban Europe! Visit the Kaunas Zoo nearby, or simply take a stroll here, and try to find the rock which Adam Mickiewitz carved on at his favorite spot.

With its blossoming flower gardens and interesting greenhouse and pond system, this 62-hectare garden, maintained by Vytautas Magnus University, is the perfect spot to take a romantic stroll.

This ensemble is regarded as the most beautiful Baroque-style landmark in the Baltic states, nestled in foresty Kaunas Reservoir. The church and abbey were built for Camaldolese monks in the 17th century, under the supervision of Italian masters from Florence. Its on-site museum offers educational classes and a small cinema. The monastery is home to about 140 frescoes of varying sizes, including the famous painting of the Mother of Fair Love, which was presented to Kristupas Zigmantas Pacas, founder of the Pažaislis Church, by Pope Alexander VII in 1661.
