Fodor's Expert Review Gedimino bokštas

Castle Hill is topped by the 13th-century Gedimino bokštas (Gedimino Tower), once part of the city's fortifications. Inside the tower is the Vilniaus Pilies Muziejus, which has outstanding city views. There is a lift to reach the Castle Hill from the inner courtyard of the castle (on the Arsenalo street side), at €1.50 per return trip. You still have to pay to enter the Tower itself in order to view the panorama of the Old Town.
