The Lithuanian folk legend about "Jūratė ir Kastytis" is as famous as the story of "Eglė žalčių karalienė." A landmark statute of Jūratė and Kastytis stands in a square in the city of Palanga.
Like the sculpture of Eglė, Queen of the Grass Snakes, this monument is another celebrated spot for picture-taking.
Palanga, Lithuanian Soviet Socialist Republic, August 10, 1967. My Mom's maternal aunt, Dora, touches the sculpture. Dora writes,"Here I am next to the sculpture, 'Jūratė ir Kastytis,' which stands on the sunset walkway leading to the sea bridge in Palanga."
