History of Lithuanians in Baltimore

[2] In the 1960 United States Census, Lithuanian-Americans comprised 44% of the foreign-born population in South Baltimore's tract 22–2.

[9] These Lithuanians settled primarily in a neighborhood north of Hollins Street that became known as Baltimore's Little Lithuania.

Between the 1880s and the 1920s, Lithuanian Jews (also known as Litvaks) were a major component of Jewish immigration to Baltimore.

[16] From the 1880s to the 1920s, the Hollins-Roundhouse neighborhood became established as the center of Baltimore's Lithuanian immigrant community.

[18] An annual Lithuanian Festival is held in Catonsville in Baltimore County, not far outside city limits.

[19] The festival features Lithuanian food and drink, dances, and ethnic items.
