The 10 Best Free Things to do in Kaliningrad, Northwestern District

March 19, 2022 Major Galusha

A little extra chunk of Russia stuck between Lithuania and Poland on the Baltic Sea, Kaliningrad was known as Königsberg from its founding by the Teutonic Knights in the 13th century until after World War II. It was renamed, repopulated with Russians and became part of the Soviet Union. Today, as it has been for centuries, it’s known for amber products, with most of the world’s harvestable amber still lying off its coast. The 14th century Königsberg Cathedral is a main city attraction.

Immanuel Kant's Grave

Reviewed By romanshorner - Munich, Germany

On one hand, it looks very simple. But in my opinion it is one of the most important sights of the city. Although the city was heavily bombed during WWII, it survived. So it is just to come there and have seen it and remember the great philosopher.

One of the old city gates and well maintained and restored. These gates are somewhat of a highlight of the city and part of the Kaliningrad experience.

Cathedral of Christ the Savior

Reviewed By MadanGopalM - Bengaluru, India

After sumptuous lunch at cafe mumu, we took metro to get down at Kropotkinskaya on red line.It's a most visible cathedral huge and gargatuan and entry is free. It appears Stalin destroyed this cathedral and wanted to build a palace of Soviets with 100 mt statue of Lenin.Fortunately his plans were not materialised but instead served as world's largest swimming pool for about 50 years. The earlier structure was a church with same name and present cathedral was completed in 1997 to commomerate 850 the birthday of founding of Moscow.The cathedral is grand with opulent designs and grandiose splendor. Not to be missed by any traveler visiting Moscow.
