Kaunas is the second-largest city in Lithuania. Our beautiful city is one of the main centers of political, cultural and academic life of the country. This is an absolutely must-see spot, when planning your Lithuania travel.
An old legend goes that our city was established by the Romans, who run away from the wild Emperor Nero. A Roman on the name Palemon became the head of the settlement. Palemon had 3 sons – Kunas, Barcus and Sperus. When Palemon died, the sons shared the land. Kunas inherited this land. He reportedly built a fortress next to the confluence of the rivers of Neris and Nemunas, so the city around was named after him.
