Guides / Raimundas Sakalys

I have loved history since childhood, reading not only historical novels but also monograph books of historians, especially about the GDL period. Impressed by prof C. Kudaba’s ideas, I became a member of the cultural club “Aukuras”. I participated in collecting material about the demolition of the Vytautas monument in Kaunas, in the collection of victims, and in the reconstruction of the monument.

In 2011 I completed a guide course.  And in 2012 a ‘Travel Guide’ course.

I am guiding the tours around Vilnius Old Town, the Palace of the Rulers, the basements of Vilnius and the Cathedral, Bernardine monastery, castle reserve, KGB museum, Vilnius churches and monasteries, pilgrimage sites excursions, as well as in Antakalnis and Uzupis districts. I have prepared 19 themed tours in Vilnius.

I like medieval times the most so in 2017-2019m. I traveled and collected material about the GDL castle in Ukraine and the Gothic heritage in the Republic of both Nations.

I lead tours in Lithuanian and Russian, I understand and can speak English and Polish. I am currently learning Latvian.
