The University of Vilnius, one of the oldest and most famous establishments of higher education in Eastern and Central Europe, was founded in 1579. Functioning for a long time as the only school of higher learning in Lithuania, it was a preserver of cultural and scientific traditions. It played a significant part in the cultural life of Lithuania and the neighboring countries as well. During more than four centuries of its existence, the University of Vilnius has seen periods of growth and decline, revival, and closure. The University is a unique witness to the history of the Lithuanian state. In 1579, King Stephen Bathory's charter transformed the Jesuit college, founded in 1570, into higher education, Academia et Universitas Vilnensis Societatis Jesu, the transformation being confirmed by Pope Gregory XIII. Although being away from other European cultural centers, the University equaled other famous European Universities and had outstanding professors and students, some of who were: the poet Mathias Casimir Sarbievius the famous professor of rhetoric and philosophy Žygimantas Liauksminas, the author of the first history of Lithuania Albertas Vijūkas-Kojelavičius professor Martin Smiglecki, whose book "Logics" was very popular in the United Kingdom and France, and many others. The first book in the Lithuanian language on the Great Duchy of Lithuania was published at the University. In 1753, the Astronomical Observatory was set up. In 1773, the Jesuit order was dissolved in Europe, and the secular authority took over the University. After Russia annexed Lithuania, the University was renamed Vilnius Principal School. In 1803, the University received a new statute and the title of the Imperial University of Vilnius. Many famous names were associated with the University at that period: the famous medical men from Vienna Johann Peter Frank and his son Joseph Frank, the historian and public figure Joachim Lelewel, the poets Adam Mickiewicz and Juliusz Slowacki, historian Simonas Daukantas, etc. As several students and professors became engaged in the anti–tsarist movement, the University was closed down according to tsar Nicholas I's orders, and it was not reopened until 1919. Poland then annexed Vilnius and its region, and the University functioned under the Polish auspices until 1939 by the name of Stephen Bathory University. Among students of the University at that time was the future Nobel prizewinner Czeslaw Milosz. In 1939, the University was brought back under Lithuania's control, but in 1940 after the Soviet occupation, it was reorganized according to the Soviet model. In 1943, the University was closed down by the Nazis and resumed its activities in 1944. Though restrained by the Soviet system, Vilnius University grew and gained force. Vilnius University started to free itself from the Soviet ideology in 1988, even before Lithuania regained independence in 1990. The University got back its autonomy and adopted its statute.

It played a significant part in the cultural life of Lithuania and the neighboring countries as well. During more than four centuries of its existence, the University of Vilnius has seen periods of growth and decline, revival, and closure. The University is a unique witness to the history of the Lithuanian state. In 1579, King Stephen Bathory's charter transformed the Jesuit college, founded in 1570, into higher education, Academia et Universitas Vilnensis Societatis Jesu, the transformation being confirmed by Pope Gregory XIII. Although being away from other European cultural centers, the University equaled other famous European Universities and had outstanding professors and students, some of who were: the poet Mathias Casimir Sarbievius the famous professor of rhetoric and philosophy Žygimantas Liauksminas, the author of the first history of Lithuania Albertas Vijūkas-Kojelavičius professor Martin Smiglecki, whose book "Logics" was very popular in the United Kingdom and France, and many others. The first book in the Lithuanian language on the Great Duchy of Lithuania was published at the University. In 1753, the Astronomical Observatory was set up. In 1773, the Jesuit order was dissolved in Europe, and the secular authority took over the University. After Russia annexed Lithuania, the University was renamed Vilnius Principal School. In 1803, the University received a new statute and the title of the Imperial University of Vilnius. Many famous names were associated with the University at that period: the famous medical men from Vienna Johann Peter Frank and his son Joseph Frank, the historian and public figure Joachim Lelewel, the poets Adam Mickiewicz and Juliusz Slowacki, historian Simonas Daukantas, etc. As several students and professors became engaged in the anti–tsarist movement, the University was closed down according to tsar Nicholas I's orders, and it was not reopened until 1919. Poland then annexed Vilnius and its region, and the University functioned under the Polish auspices until 1939 by the name of Stephen Bathory University. Among students of the University at that time was the future Nobel prizewinner Czeslaw Milosz. In 1939, the University was brought back under Lithuania's control, but in 1940 after the Soviet occupation, it was reorganized according to the Soviet model. In 1943, the University was closed down by the Nazis and resumed its activities in 1944. Though restrained by the Soviet system, Vilnius University grew and gained force. Vilnius University started to free itself from the Soviet ideology in 1988, even before Lithuania regained independence in 1990. The University got back its autonomy and adopted its statute.
