"...Life is a permanent motion. Various shapes emerge and dissolve... For thousands of years stones grow and decay. Plants burst, animals and humans are born, and all these die down... Modern people learn to gaze at the nature more serenely. And the phenomena of life become ever more clearly seen in a definite relationship with the nature. It seems that all secrets of the nature and all its mysteries become revealed..."

Rambynas Regional Park was established in order to preserve the landscape of the lower stream valley of the Nemunas River, its nature and culture heritage values. Visitors are lured by a very special genius loci – or "spirit of place" – which casts a spell on all those who visit it. The Rambynas hill was once the place of inspiration in Lithuania Minor. The prominent theosophist Vydūnas (1868–1953) and Martynas Jankus (1858–1946), the Patriarch of the Lithuanian National Revival, rest in the graveyard at the foot of the hill. The museum of Martynas Jankus in Bitėnai exposes visitors to some of the most intriguing chapters of the National Revival era. The park is the home of several heathen mounds, romantic manor sites from the German Imperial era, a heritage townlet of Vilkyškiai, the unique 17-trunk tree of Norway spruce and the Lithuania's largest White Stork colony in Bitėnai. Experience all this and more! |
