The Krokulė Spring has been known since the 19th century, and according to the local historian A. Namikas, it was once a sacred site called Alkavietė, where a giant oak tree grew. In 1903, a brick chapel was built here to symbolize the local history and traditions. The Krokulė Spring discharges 7 liters of water per second, with a temperature that remains between 7 and 9 °C throughout the year. It is believed that the name of the spring derives from the word "kriokti," meaning "to flow." The water from the spring is renowned for its healing properties and is thought to bring health, happiness, and protection from Perkūnas (the thunder god). The Krokulė Spring, as a natural and cultural heritage site, is included in the Register of Cultural Heritage of Lithuania along with the nearby stone.
