Saint Bishop Stanislaus Church of Balninkai

Balninkai parish did not always have a house of prayer - they were destroyed by wars and fires. The current Balninkai church was completed in 1910 under the pastorate of priest Adomas Jusys. In 1921, it was consecrated with the title of Saint Stanislaus by Pranciškus Karevičius, bishop of Žemaitija. It is a two-tower brick sanctuary in the Neo-Romanesque-Neo-Gothic style. The interior of the church is Gothic and divided into three naves. The wooden sculpture of the Nazarene in the church is included in the list of cultural monuments and protected by the state. It is a work of the 19th century.
