Where does drinking water come from in Vilnius?
In Vilnius, nearly all the 580,000 citizens rely on deep groundwater reserves for its supply of drinking water. This water is extracted by waterworks at 20 well fields around the city. (See Map) The waterworks provide some treatments to the water to help make it fit for consumption. “Vilnius Drinking Water Resources” contains information about various ways in which public and private water supplies obtain water in Vilnius and information about its quality. Charts showing the location of Vilnius well fields, facts sheets, pictures of aquifers and much more can be found in this section. What is drinking water like throughout Lithuania? Although groundwater and drinking water conditions vary throughout Lithuania, much similarities do exist. Further, information sharing among water quality programs and projects, such as this, can be of benefit to other municipalities in Lithuania. In addition to providing information to an audience outside Vilnius, we welcome information about your project
