Hill of Three Crosses
Three Crosses stand on the Hill of Three Crosses, formerly known as Kreivasis (Kreivoji Castle stood there, which was destroyed in 1390.). Erecting crosses on a hill is a centuries-old tradition. According to a legend, pagans killed 7 Franciscan missionaries here in the 14th century. They were buried in that place, and a small chapel was built there. Wooden crosses can be seen in the 17th century drawings of the city. Cement crosses were elected in 1916, which were blown up by the Soviets in 1951. Crosses were re-erected there in 1989. This photo was taken by a telephoto lens from Upper Castle ground, which is an opposite hill across Vilnia River.
