The Kaunas Mosque, also known as the Vytautas the Great Mosque, is a historic mosque located in Kaunas, Lithuania. It was built in 1930 and is one of the 4 remaining mosques in Lithuania. The mosque features a distinctive Ottoman-inspired architecture with a blue-tiled dome and a tall minaret, and is considered a symbol of Lithuania's multicultural heritage. It was closed during the Soviet era, but was restored and reopened to the public in 1993. The mosque serves as a place of worship for Kaunas' Muslim community and also welcomes visitors interested in learning more about Islam and Lithuania's history. It's the only brick mosque in Baltic states.

It's usually open around prayer times (Midday, during sunset)
