History
In the first half of the 18th century, Mikołaj Tadeusz Łopaciński purchased the building and converted it into a palace with the assistance of Johann Christoph Glaubitz. In 1801, the Palace was sold to Kossakowski. In 1808, minor reconstructions were made to adapt the palace with city road contour.
In 1819–1828, Earl Olizaras' family owned the Palace. Later, it was owned by printers Zavadskai , who used it as printing house. In 1967–1975, the main hull was partly reconstructed by Aldona Svabauskienė.[1]
Currently, this building is used as the hotel "Šekspyras".
