    The geometric classifications of some classes of four-dimensional simply connected Lie groups with invariant Lorenzian metrics are given. Up to an isomorphism of Lie groups the classification of four-dimensional simply connected Lie groups with invariant Lorenzian metrics is well known. In this paper the authors give explicit classification (up to isometry) of the Einsteinian Lorenzian four-dimensional simply connected Lie groups and the four-dimensional simply connected Lie groups with invariant Ricci-parallel (not Einsteinian) Lorenzian metrics. Then examples of Ricci solitons are listed.
