Klaipėda's Old Town is notable among other towns in [[Lithuania]] for its abundance of German and Scandinavian architecture. Klaipėda's Old Town is unique with its fachwerk architectural style and its planned street structure, which is uncharacteristic to any other old town in [[Lithuania]]. Its streets are geometrically configured very correctly, and the [[angle]] of intersection is straight.

One of the most popular places in Klaipėda's old town is The Theatre Square. It hosts a variety of concerts, the Sea Festival, the International [[Jazz]] Festival and other events. An important focus of the Theatre Square is the [[Ännchen von Tharau|Taravos Anikė]] sculpture depicting a youthful barefoot girl. The sculpture was erected in the memory of the poet [[Simon Dach|Simonas Dachas]] and perpetuates one of the poet's described heroes.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.lithuania.travel/en-gb/attractions/klaipedas-old-town/17170 |title=Klaipeda's Old Town – Explore the City |access-date=31 May 2015 |archive-date=14 January 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150114135623/http://www.lithuania.travel/en-gb/attractions/klaipedas-old-town/17170 |url-status=live}}</ref>
