  • Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Guests ! the Lithuanian National Committee
    Ladies and Gentlemen, dear guests ! The Lithuanian National Committee of ICOMOS welcomes the participants of this Forum! This year we celebrate the 20th years anniversary when Vilnius Historic Center as Old Town and 10th years of Kernave archaeological site inscribed into World Heritage List of UNESCO. 25 years ago there was prepared documentation for inscription Vilnius Old Town in the World Heritage List. Two factors helped for the preparation of the documentation: 1. the international information about Vilnius Old Town in the main magazine- “ICOMOS Information” in 1989, Nr. 2; 2. The preparation of the Third project for Vilnius Old Town regeneration. After Vilnius Historic Center has been inscribed to World Heritage List there were accepted the common means of UNESCO, World Bank and Lithuania for Vilnius Old Town revitalization. The result of common efforts worked out Vilnius Old Town Revitalization Strategy. The preparation of the Strategy was financed by World Bank and Vilnius Municipality. The international experts from Denmark, Great Britain (Scotland) worked together with Lithuanian specialists in the preparing the Strategy. In 1998, 1999, 2000 Lithuanian Government assigned the special means to Vilnius Municipality for revitalization of Vilnius Old Town. It helped to improve physical state of buildings and infrastructure of the Old Town. In 1998 Vilnius Municipality established Vilnius Old Town Renewal Agency and adopted the Vilnius Old Town revitalization program from 1998 till 2003. It was very important to prepare and confirm the Vilnius City Official Plans: from 1998- till 2005 and from 2008 till 2015. One of the most important objectives of the Vilnius Official Plan is preservation of Vilnius Old Town as a World Heritage Site.

  • LITHUANIA Wooden Architecture of Vilnius Historie Suburbs
    Heritage at Risk 2004/2005 Lithuania 167 LITHUANIA Wooden Architecture of Vilnius Historie Suburbs In the 2001-2002 edition of Heritage at Risk, the Lithuanian National Committee of ICOMOS mentioned wooden architecture in historic suburbs as the most endangered of several groups of cultural heritage items in Lithuania. The historic centre of Vilnius - Old Town - is inscribed on the World Heritage List, but the survival of the wooden architecture of the historic suburbs of Vilnius remains problematic. For the Vilnius historic suburbs - Uzupis, Zverynas, Antakalnis, Snipiskes, Markuciai - have grown as separate residential areas in the configuration of the town's centre. Wooden architecture has survived there unevenly. Old wooden buildings still dominate in large areas of Zverynas, Snipiskes and Markuciai. In Uzupis and Antakalnis, groups of wooden buildings or individual ones are interwoven with brick buildings surrounded by a new urban environment.

  • Use of New Materials in a Restoration
    Use of New Materials in a Restoration Alina Samukienė Architect – restorer, Design company “ARCHIVOLTAS”, Svencioniu str, 7 – 2, Vilnius 2014, Lithuania This article will present the subject from an architects’ point of view. Use of new materials in a restoration of cultural heritage objects is related with many problems. First of all – traditions, their physical and esthetical relations with authentic historic elements and materials. Each country had its specific building elements that did not change too much during the history. Continuity of their use is a necessary condition for restoration, renovation or the adoptation for the new use of heritage building or the building which is located in the visual influence zone. New economic relations and recreation of property rights changed the previous state controle of all heritage conservation works in the country. New financial resources appeared, and the state financing of conservation works became much smaller during the last decade. New immovable cultural property owners have their opinion regarding necessary repair or restoration works. This opinion not necessary corresponds with requirements of heritage conservation specialists. Together with new property owners new building contractors come and they are not aquinted with specific of heritage conservation works. During first years of Lithuanian independence (since 1990) it became clear that a lot of unqualified work and use of unsuitable materials should be controled by the introduction of special licenses (for building companies) and qualification certificates for architects-restorers and conservation experts. Now everybody who wants to work with cultural heritage objects has to attend special training course and then to get a qualification certificate.

The profile provides a description of the geography, population, and economy of Lithuania and compares its level of development, growth, and social welfare to that in Finland and Sweden. International comparisons, particularly for aggregate measures such as GNP, are difficult to make because of differences in definitions and methods used by various countries in compiling statistics. International currency exchange rates are deficient for this purpose because they do not reflect relative purchasing power of different currencies over the whole range of output of goods and services included in GNP.

  • KAUNAS CASTLE in the 14Th Century, a Stone Castle Was Built at the Confluence of the Nemunas and Neris Rivers to Resist Crusaders’ Attacks
    KAUNAS CASTLE In the 14th century, a stone castle was built at the confluence of the Nemunas and Neris rivers to resist Crusaders’ attacks. It was the first stone castle in Lithuania which played a significant role in the city's defence system. Kaunas Castle is a Gothic building with two rows of protective walls and is the only castle of this type in Lithuania. A settlement started forming around the castle, growing into the present-day city. RAUDONDVARIS CASTLE Approximately 9 km away from Kaunas on both sides of the highway to Jurbarkas a beautiful town of Raudondvaris welcomes you. The architectural ensemble of the town is located on the upper terrace of the river Nevėžis valley. The Raudondvaris Manor complex consists of the castle, subsidiary builings, an orangery and the stables. All the buildings are surrounded by a park. Various concerts, festivals, exhibitions and other events take place here today. BELVEDERIS MANOR Belvederis Manor is a gem of Italian Renaissance architecture from the 19th century, a villa-style structure designed by Pietro de Rosi. The unique harmony between the natural environment and the exceptional architecture gave the estate its name; Belvedere means beautiful view in Italian. The vivid beauty of the manor and park are emphasised by a unique series of 365 steps that, according to the fancy of the designers, take you from the palace to the banks of the Nemunas. VELIUONA MANOR Veliuona Manor is a fine example of Neo-Classical wooden architecture dating back to the 19th century. Two hundred years of tumultuous history have barely touched the exterior.
