Juodkrante

Sculpture Park "Land and Water"

Sculpture park was finished in 2002. It houses 31 stone and metal sculptures created during an international symposium "Land and Water." The sculptures are located on the recently built quay, 2.4 km in length, along the lagoon shore.

Hill of Witches

A large collection of unique wooden sculptures by various artists is displayed on the Hill of Witches. The sculpture park was started in 1979 and now has more than 70 wooden objects. Most of the figures are based on Lithuanian legends or folk tales. Before the surrounding area was planted with tress, visitors could admire a view of the sea and the lagoon.
 

The heron and cormorant colonies

O. Glagau also describes the battle between the cormorants and grey herons, which ended with the win of cormorants that drove the grey herons out for some time. Of interest to nature watchers are the large great cormorant (2000 pairs) and grey heron (500 pairs) colonies west of Juodkrantė. It is believed that the herons have nested near Juodkrantė since 17th century, and the cormorants arrived only at the beginning of 19th century.
