Lithuania's largest outdoor spring fair, held in Vilnius's Cathedral Square around March 4 since the early seventeenth century, in honor of Saint Casimir's feast day, drawing over a thousand vendors selling amber jewelry, smoked meats, pottery, leather goods and the fair's signature decorated Easter palm known as verba.
Kaziuko Muge, known in English as St.
Few civic traditions in Vilnius can claim the continuity of Kaziuko Muge, whose roots stretch back roughly four centuries to the earliest years of the seventeenth century, formalized further when merchants won the right to trade directly in Cathedral Square in 1827
The fair's signature verba, an elaborately decorated dried Easter palm unique to Lithuanian tradition, has become a competitive craft form in its own right, giving the fair a distinctive product no other regional market shares
Verba-making remains the fair's most distinctive living tradition
with makers competing informally to produce the most elaborate dried-flower Easter palms
and the fair's Cathedral Square location
secured for merchants in 1827
continues to be treated as sacred civic ground for the event even as the surrounding market has modernized in nearly every other respect
