On Thursday I got one postcard from Lithuania and one from Austria.
The card from Lithuania shows the Trakai Island Castle. The Gothic style castle was built by the Lithuanian Grand Dukes Kęstutis and Vytautas the Great at the end of the 14th century and at the beginning of the 15th century. The castle is located in the Lake Galvė and was one of the main centres of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The surroundings of the castle are called Trakai Historical National Park and are on the UNESCO Tentative List.
