Trakai
Trakai is a town in southeastern Lithuania, west of Vilnius, the capital. Part of the Trakai Historical National Park, Trakai Island Castle is a 14th-century fortress in the middle of Lake Galvė. Once a home to Lithuania's grand dukes, it now houses the Trakai History Museum, with archaeological objects, coins and crafts. On the lake's southern shore are the stone ruins of the Trakai Peninsula Castle.
