Гора ведьм. Raganų kalnas. Juodkrante. www.litva.lt

“Гора ведьм” в Юодкранте на Куршской косе. Гора считалась священным местом у племен Куршей и Самбов. После прихода крестоносцев в 1255 году поклонение языческим богам стало запретным, но это место оставалось священным для людей, исповедующих старые ведические культы, и поскольку святая инквизиция в Пруссии имела достаточно непрочный статус, на гору каждый год приходили ведьмы со всей Европы, и безбоязненно совершали обряды поклонения силам природы и богине-матери, тем более что в то время коса ещё не успела сформироваться, а гора стояла на маленьком острове, доступ к которому был достаточно затруднён — мелкое в том месте море делало невозможным судоходство, и некому было следить за «охраной правопорядка» на острове.
Во второй половине 20 века на Горе ведьм стали собираться мастера резьбы по дереву со всех уголков Литвы. За период с 1979 по 2002 гг. они смастерили 80 деревянных скульптур стоящих вдоль тропы на горе. Прообразами скульптур послужили народные сказки и легенды, а так-же черти, ведьмаки, ведьмы, герои легенд о Неринге и другие мифические персонажи, вызывающие самые разные эмоции.

Hill of the Witches in Lithuania 2018 / Magical Place / Raganų kalnas in Juodkrante, Curonian Spit

???????????????? HILL of the WITCHES ... ???? ♣ ♥????????????️????????????️
To the topic: WHAT IS INTERESTING IN LITHUANIA?
PLACE OF POWER, MOTIVATION, FANTASY AND ART !!! FAIRY TAILS live HERE ????????????
We found the Witch Hill near a small Lithuanian village Juodkran on the Curonian Spit. For a long time I wanted to get here. The hill was a sacred place for the tribes of Cours and Sambo. Their lifestyle and religion inspired Tolkien to create the Sindar tribe (twilight elves). After the arrival of the Crusaders in 1255, the worship of these gods became forbidden, but the witches came to the hill each year and performed rituals of worship of the forces of nature and Mother Nature.
Here the devil and witch play cards. Dark and Light powers are in a battle here. In 1979 Lithuanian artists - wood carvers and blacksmiths - gathered in a creative camp on a spit. They created 25 sculptures. Until now almost every year the craftsmen come here to restore old sculptures and create new ones.

Гору Відьом ми надибали поблизу маленького литовського селища Юодкранте на Куршській косі. Давно хотіла сюди потрапити. Гора була священним місце у племен куршів і самбо. Їх стиль життя і релігія надихнули Толкіна на створення племені Сіндар (сутінкових ельфів). Після приходу хрестоносців 1255 року поклоніння цим богам стало забороненим, але на гору щороку приходили відьми і здійснювали обряди поклоніння силам природи і богині-матері.
Тут чорт з відьмою грають в карти. Тут боряться «темні» і «світлі» сили. У 1979 році литовські майстри - різьбярі по дереву та ковалі - зібралися в творчому таборі на косі. Вони створили 25 скульптур. До сих пір майже щорічно сюди з'їжджаються майстри, реставрують старі скульптури і створюють нові.
