Modernist Kaunas as a reason to travel

Anyone wishing to combine modern architecture and urban history will find a clear cultural focus in Kaunas. Žaliakalnis and Naujamiestis are named as areas of the Modernist Kaunas UNESCO World Heritage Site. Both names can serve as factual guidance when searching for accommodation in the city with an architectural focus.

Search for the city and the surrounding area separately

The city of Kaunas and the Kaunas District Municipality, which partly surrounds it, are separate administrative units. When searching for accommodation, the district with the same name should therefore not automatically be equated with Kaunas city. If your stay focuses on Modernist Kaunas and urban history, explicitly select Kaunas as the city. For further orientation, you can also view Kaunas District.

Align your accommodation search with your travel plans

Whether you are looking for a holiday apartment, a holiday home or a hotel: for a stay focusing on Modernist Kaunas, the location selection should first refer to Kaunas as a city, not generally to the district with the same name. You can also take Žaliakalnis and Naujamiestis into account as search guidance. This allows you to align your choice of search area with the cultural theme of your stay.
