Hill of Crosses at the Holy Spring (Vištytis)

Highlight • Religious Site

On the shore of Lake Vištytis, in the forest of Šilelis, fresh water gushes from the Holy Spring. People’s stories tell us that the water in this spring elsewhere was actually extraordinary. When the eyes were enough to eat it and the blind man saw, wounds that were difficult to heal quickly healed. And in our day there are stories of miraculous healing, many believe in its miraculous power. Believing in the power of the Holy Fountain, people from the farthest corners sprinkle with water and build crosses on a hill near the fountain. Year after year, the number of crosses is increasing, and the locals already call the roller coaster at the source the cross roller coaster. When people began to believe in the power of spring water, there is no exact knowledge. This more interesting event has been heard from old people’s stories.

Before the First World War, one poor peasant had seen St. The Virgin Mary, who asked her to build a cross at the source. The poor man, even most desirous, could not fulfill the request because he had neither a horse, nor a chariot, nor a tree from which to make only an ax. She shamed her wife and forgot the request. After a while, he dreamed again of the mother of God, who in the dream assured man that only he could build the cross. After dreaming the same dream for the third time, he went to a neighbor in the morning and told him everything. He calmed him down and promised to help. They went to the forest, cut down an oak tree, and soon a cross was erected at the source.

People, believing that the power of God was here, began to attend the cross, pray, sprinkle with spring water, believing that water cures all sorts of diseases, especially eye diseases. Apparently faith can really work wonders…
