Gate of Dawn / Aušros Vartai / Ostra Brama |
A very nice postcard of the Gate of Dawn (Aušros Vartai in Lithuanian and Ostra Brama in Polish) sent in 1910 from Вильна / Vilna (now Vilnius, Lithuania) to München/Munich, Germany. The description of the postcard is in Polish which was the major local language back in that time. The gate has a famous pilgrimage chapel in the upper floor so it is often described as Kaplica Ostrobramska in Polsih (Kaplica is chapel in Polish).
