Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Lithuanian: Švč. Mergelės Marijos Nekaltojo Prasidėjimo bažnyčia) is a Roman Catholic church in Žvėrynas, one of the neighborhoods of Vilnius, which was for the most part completed in 1925.[1][2][3][4] The initial project of the church was only partly implemented as due to the Great Depression and World War II the towers of the church were not built.[1][3]
