The Bell Tower of Vilnius Cathedral, Vilnius, Lithuania
Closed for more than a decade, the Bell Tower of Vilnius Cathedral has finally reopened to visitors. One of the city& x27;s defining monuments and a popular meeting place, the tower originally formed part of the city& x27;s 13th century defensive wall, becoming a belfry in the 16th century. Fifty-seven metres tall, it was remodelled and given its current look in the 19th century. Besides offering fine views from the top, it hosts an exhibition of bells and also documents the building& x27;s reconstruction.
