This impressive hillfort, also known as Chapel Hill (Koplyčkalnis), is located on a solitary hill on the right bank of the Šetekšna River. Its oval-shaped plateau and moderate to steep slopes, reaching heights of 3–7 meters, testify to the existence of a fortified settlement in the past. Over time, the hillfort has been affected by plowing, fox dens, and erosion on its southern slope. Currently, it is covered by mixed forest, which enhances its natural beauty.
To the northeast of the hillfort, a 0.2-hectare settlement area has been discovered at its base, containing fragments of handmade pottery that indicate human activity in the region. The hillfort dates back to the end of the 1st millennium BCE to the beginning of the 1st millennium CE and is a valuable historical heritage site in Lithuania, attracting history enthusiasts and tourists alike.
