Hill of Witches.

The Hill of Witches in Juodkrantė, Lithuania, is an enchanting outdoor sculpture park featuring around 80 hand-crafted wooden sculptures that illuminate the region's rich folklore and pagan traditions. Nestled on a forested sand dune near the Curonian Lagoon, the hill combines natural beauty with historical significance, having served as a site for ancient Midsummer celebrations. The collection, which evolves through regular woodcarving symposia, showcases a range of characters from witches to mythical beasts, creating a whimsical experience as visitors traverse the trail. The contrasting atmospheres of the bright front side and the darker, more mysterious rear add to the adventure, making this year-round destination a captivating journey into Lithuania's cultural heritage.
