The Kaunas city wall (Lithuanian: Kauno miesto gynybinė siena) was a masonry defensive wall in Kaunas, an important city of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
[1][2][3][4] Its construction began in the early 17th century as a result of Kaunas' prosperity and medieval city's standards, however it was unfinished due to later wars and economic reasons.
[1] The city wall surrounded Kaunas from the eastern side and had land fortifications: bastions, redans, artillery batteries, fortified towers.
[5] In 1607 multiple gates of the city wall were mentioned named after Neris river (on a road to Ukmergė; later renamed to Panerių or Raginės after the name of the suburb), Lithuania's capital Vilnius, and Tatars which were built along the main roads of the city.
[5] A small part of the city wall with a tower is preserved in the courtyard of the Kaunas State Musical Theatre.
