Into Lithuania … and to the Hill of Crosses

During a further drive of about an hour we crossed the border once more – we had now arrived in Lithuania (no alcohol-related stop this time). We made it straight for Jurgaičiai and the Hill of Crosses.

We spent about an hour at this place of Christian pilgrimage and symbol of peace, featuring more than 100K crosses – including a quick stop at the information center, on for a walk across the hill to the church and monastery on the other side.
