VECKULDĪGA HILLFORT

Nature / landscape

Veckuldīga Hillfort was once standing in the middle of the lands inhabited by Couronians, on the banks of the River Venta. At these times, it was the largest centre of the Couronian land Bandava. A 10-ha large settlement stretched around it. The hillfort with a settlement existed until the 14th century, when its inhabitants moved to the new place of Kuldīga, near the German Order castle.
