Lithuanian Square
Plac Litewski
The central square of the New Town, notable for the monument commemorating the Union of Lublin and the multimedia fountain show on summer evenings.
Lithuanian Square is the center of Lublin’s New Town. It takes its name from the Lithuanian nobles who camped here in 1569 during the Union of Lublin Sejm. The Union of Lublin Obelisk on the square is one of the city’s symbols. After a renovation in 2017, a large multimedia fountain was built here, and on summer evenings it presents a water show accompanied by music, lighting, and lasers, attracting large crowds of residents. The square is surrounded by government buildings and shops, and the pedestrian street leading north to Kraków Gate begins here.
