Really unique experience!
I am from Kaunas, Lithuania (Baltic states).
We would really appreciate if they could arrange the same show in our city, Cathedral-Basilica of St. Peter and St. Paul in Kaunas (LTU - Kauno Šv. apaštalų Petro ir Povilo arkikatedra bazilika).
It also has deep and unique history - founded around 1413 (by Grand Duke Vytautas the Great) with construction continuing over centuries and resulting in its current mixed Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque appearance. It was rebuilt after a fire in 1655 and again after a fire in 1732, with major renovations in 1771 and 1800 adding to its current form. The church was elevated to a cathedral in 1895 (Pope Leo XIII) and received its basilica title in 1926.
In 1996 the building was included on the Registry of Immovable Cultural Heritage Sites of the Republic of Lithuania.
In 2018 Pope Francis had visited the cathedral.
