Legendary
Some historians claim that it was here, and nowhere else, that the Pilėnai tragedy took place in 1336, when after long battles, when the enemy invaded the castle, the defenders of the castle voluntarily chose death instead of surrendering to the enemy. There is also a legend that this mound was built by Duke Pyplys in honor of his dead son. It is said that the duke's son Dainutis was taken captive by the Crusaders when he was a child and his father thought he was already dead. He, meanwhile, was raised as a cross until he finally met his father in one battle, only on different sides. The father immediately recognized the son and he remembered him, but there was no time to rejoice, Dainutis was killed by a crusader here. Mourning his son's prince and pouring a mound in his memory.

It has the status of a municipality, which means it has an elected mayor and city council.

The church rising in the ravine on the bank of the Nemunas is the oldest monument of Kaunas early Gothic (15th century). According to legend, the shrine was built by Vytautas the Great as a thank you to the Supreme, who successfully crossed the river and thus escaped after a lost battle. During the interwar period, the rector of the church, Fr. J. Tumas-Vaižgantas gently called her Vytautas, and the duke was honored as a monument in the church.

On the north facade wall - a table with markings. This is until the 20th century. a sign of the floods of the Nemunas in the middle of the 19th century. And there were a lot of them - inside the church they even rode a boat.
