Dedicated to the 600th anniversary of the baptism of Žemaitija (Samogitia).

The most famous and most visited hill in Telšiai district.

600 years ago, the carriers of foreign cultures despised the eternal fire and it was taken away from our ancestors. In 1994, on the Šatrija Hill, according to the customs of Aistians and thanks to the efforts of Samogitian Honour Krivaitis A. Gedvilas, the Fire was lit again in his homestead. Since then, every year in mid-summer – on the third Saturday of July – the Fire is brought and lit on Šatrija Hill. In 2017, the Fire was returned to the Shrine of Šatrija. The Fire has been kept constantly burning by volunteer supervisors in Raudonkalnis. It is often carried up on Šatrija Hill.

On the steep slope of the shore of Gludas lake in 1904, after the death of the nobleman Leonardas Sakelis, his son Zigmantas Sakelis established a family mausoleum. The remains of other Sakelis' and previous owners of Pavandenė manor were also transferred to it.
