Sex and marriage. Love? Not necessarily! And morality? Hmm… well, maybe sometimes. This isn't a tour about the beautiful love stories sung by poets; it's a collection of much more piquant tales. We'll delve into the bedroom affairs of kings and dukes, the marriages of nobles, the dramas of ordinary townspeople, counting countless marital and extramarital affairs, venereal diseases, legitimate and “illegitimate” children, men's mistresses, and women's “marriage helpers.”
You'll discover which Vilnius streets were frequented by girls awaiting clients, in which cafes the city's elite loved to flirt, and you'll hear about an impressive erotic find recently unearthed by archaeologists in the courtyard of the former Bishop's Palace. And when you hear what Mykolas Romeris wrote in his diary, your hair will stand on end! There will be public airing of dirty laundry, Lithuanian folk erotica and love magic, and, of course, lots and lots of laughter.❤️ Meeting point: By the monument to King Mindaugas (next to Arsenalo St. 1)🏹 End point: Pylimo St. by the Zappa monument💘 Duration: approx. 2 hours.
