The Hill of Witches

I saw a couple of pictures of this park and googled it. I found a short article on Wikipedia. Here's an excerpt:

The  Hill of Witches (Lithuanian: Raganų Kalnas) is an outdoor sculpture gallery near Juodkrantė, Lithuania .

Begun in 1979, it has been expanded several times, and now contains about 80 wooden sculptures along a series of trails.

The pieces depict characters from Lithuanian folklore and pagan traditions.

Legend has it that the witches and goblins come out at night to party and to frighten and confuse any humans who venture into the park after dark!

Children have a great time in this magic wooded area. Admission to the park is free.
