A small oblong mountain with a hollow on top of it stands about 12 km to the north from Šiauliai, not too far from Šiauliai-Riga railway line. This is the famous Hill of Crosses. It has myriads of crosses placed all throughout its surface and is a symbol of respect and loyalty to the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross, through which Jesus Christ saved the people of all times and generations. The Hill of Crosses is a reminder of the sufferings and death of our Savior, His resurrection and worship, as well as the elevation of every man though the Mystery of the Cross. Those who travel to the Hill of Crosses to pray and to place their crosses signify the strength coming from the Cross, the never ending hope, and the belief in God’s love.
