The Grand Duchy of Lithuania was a a great European state covering the territory of present-day Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania and parts of Estonia, Moldova, Poland, Russia and Ukraine. It was famous for its unique spirit, brave knights, beautiful ladies, unapproachable castles, pipe music, balls and dinners. Alas, nowadays you cannot find this country on the map. Nevertheless, sometimes you feel it would be so great to put on knightly armor and rush headlong into the battle and after, sitting at the dinner table, raise a glass in honor of the Duke, don't you? Then let us invite you to a journey.
