Very beautiful white church with red roof. Also check wooden yellow church and Samogitian Diocese Museum in Varniai.
6. Telsiai Russian Orthodox St. Nicholas Church
The only existing cubist style sacred architecture building can be found in Telšiai city. The church had originally been built in the 19th century in a very different place, but because at the time it was built due to the demolition of a Catholic church and graveyard, during the period of Lithuanian Independence the Russian orthodox community received compensation to relocate to another building.
7. Church of All Saints
One of the oldest churches in Samogitia - Luoke All Saints church – was built at the beginning of the 15th century, soon after the Christianisation of Samogitia in 1413. Then, by the order of Grand Duke Vytautas Magnus eight churches were to be built in Samogitia, one of them in Luoke. The first bishop of Samogitian diocese lived in Luoke.

St. Alexander’s church that unites the characteristics of late Baroque and wooden folk architecture can be considered the oldest church in Samogitia. It is true, that since 1417 when by the care of Vytautas Magnus it was built and consecrated, the church was damaged and rebuilt many times.
