The Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Perpetual Help in Šeštokai was built between 1922 and 1924 based on the design of engineer J. Vitemberg. It stands out for its wooden architecture and Latin cross shape. In 1928, three altars were installed, two of which were expertly crafted by A. Soraka, while the main altar was created by A. Karalius. In 1935, the church was equipped with an organ. During World War II, the church sustained damage but was later restored. This double-towered building is located along a quiet street, with a railway passing nearby. The interior of the church is spacious and simple, featuring intersecting cylindrical vaults and a profiled cornice. The main interior highlights are the expressive altars and the wide organ loft adorned with elaborate ornaments.
