Klaipeda – the third largest city in Lithuania – is for many just a stopover on the way to Palanga or the Curonian Spit or is seen only as the country’s most important port, a strategically important place. Therefore, the multifaceted architectural character of Klaipeda often remains unknown. What makes this city and its urban fabric unique? And what does the word “port city” mean – a city in a port or a port in a city? The book presents a consistent panorama of the architecture and urban planning of the port city in three periods (before 1945, the Soviet period and after 1990) – until now only the old times or the Soviet era have been written about. The book describes almost 250 objects from ancient times to the present day: not only residential or public buildings, but also public spaces, port and industrial infrastructure. Introductory articles prepared by historians and architectural researchers will help you understand Klaipeda and the broader historical context. You will find: the history of 246 buildings and other objects; detailed introductory articles written by prominent historians and architectural researchers; historical shots of Klaipeda city and contemporary photos by photographers; building drawings and urban schemes; Klaipeda city map with marked architectural objects.
