Garliava, is a city in Lithuania, considered a suburb of Kaunas. Garliava is located 10 km south from the center of Kaunas and has a territory of 3,65 km2. In 1809 Józef Godlewski built a Holy Trinity church and named it Godlewo in his own honour, although Lithuanians started calling it Garliava. This year is generally viewed as the year Garliava was founded. It lay along a significant postal route between Saint Petersburg, Kaunas, Marijampolė, and Warsaw.
Godlewski also built a place of worship for Lutherans and a synagogue for Jews.
