Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
Sure to be one of the most memorable sites visitors in Lithuania will come across, the Hill of Crosses is exactly what the name states, a hill filled with over 100,000 crosses (as of 2006).
Though the details of how the Hill of Crosses actually came to be are unknown, it is thought that the first cross was placed around 1831. Catholic pilgrims and tourists from around the world can be seen exploring the site, which in addition to the crosses in all sizes and colors also has a collection of statues, carvings, and rosaries.
