Gate to Small Ghetto

This was once the entrance to the main Jewish quarter, which lay in the streets west of Didžioji gatvė. Today only street names like Žydų (Jews) and Gaono (Gaon) serve as reminders of those days, while a small plaque marks the site of the gate to the ghetto, liquidated in 1941.
