Monument to the scientist and theologian Peter Skarza, who lived in the late 16th - early 17th centuries. is located opposite the church of St. Peter and St. Paul and next to the building of the administrative building of the Pontifical University of John Paul II. Peter Skarga was the rector of the Vilnius Academy and University, and was a prominent figure in the Catholic Church, a Jesuit, and the inspirer of the Brest Union of 1596. The location of the monument was chosen not by chance - P. Skarga is buried nearby in the crypt of the Cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul. It should be noted that the monument is quite new - it was erected in 2001, but it fits well into the environment and complements the small square of Mary Magdalene.
