Rekčiai Hillfort (Rekčių piliakalnis) is located on the picturesque banks of the River Venta, enclosed by a 22 m wide rampart. Once, there was an ancient settlement near the hillfort. According to legends, Rekčiai Hillfort is supposed to have been used for rituals: a sacred fire was burned here, there was a church that sank in the ground, during celebrations bells are chiming in the hillfort. After the ancient wooden castle gradually deteriorated, the hillfort became a meeting place for the nearby people and a celebration place.
