Drums from the Church of St Peter and St Paul in Antokol in Vilnius

In the vestibule of the Church of Sts. In the vestibule of the Church of St Peter and St Paul in Antokolė in Vilnius there are two lithaurs, or drums made up of copper hemispheres covered with taut leather. According to tradition, they are the spoils of war from near Chocim (1673) from the Great Hetman of Lithuania and founder of the church, Michał Kazimierz Pac. Although it is not unequivocally confirmed, it seems plausible, but there are other accounts stating that they may have been brought from Vienna in 1683, or even that they are a local product.
