About Trakai
Trakai is a lake town west of Vilnius in Lithuania, famous for a red-brick island castle and a small Karaite community with its own pasties.
Trakai lies among lakes and woods west of Vilnius, and its red-brick castle stands on an island in Lake Galvė, joined to the shore by wooden footbridges. The castle was built in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, when Trakai was a seat of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania and a rival to Vilnius, and it was rebuilt in the twentieth century after centuries of decay.
