The present church, the Basilica of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, was constructed and furnished in the third quarter of the XVIII century. The building is one of the finest examples of late Baroque architecture in Lithuania. The interior, designed by the gifted Lithuanian artist, Thomas Podgaiskis, has been preserved without significant changes for over two centuries.

We visited the Pažaislis Monastery and the Church of the Visitation during our vehicle transfer from Riga to Vilnius. It was closed by the time we arrived but our guide from Traveller Tours was able to persuade the nuns to let us in for a brief visit. The architecture and particularly the ceiling paintings are absolutely stunning and well worth a visit, even if it is a bit out of town. There is also a small crypt in the church but we did not have time to explore this or the main Monastery.

The church has a very interesting history! And it is definately a must-see, when coming to Kaunas. It was lovely to take a funicular up the hill to the church, and the view from the roof was really worth the small admission fee.
