Holy Spirit Orthodox Church

Reviewed By Luv2TravelFarNWide - Phoenix, United States

This is the major Russian Orthodox church in Lithuania and is affiliated with two Orthodox monasteries: The Monastery of the Holy Spirit and the Convent of Saint Mary Magdalen -- the only remaining Orthodox monasteries in Lithuania. Inside the unassuming Baroque-style entrance is a beautiful green and blue chancellery and sanctuary. The surprise when you open the door will take your breath away.
