I loved doing things like that when I was a kid too (in Seimas - Lithuanian Parliament).

Merkinė Castle had a great importance in the defence of Nemunas midstream from 1377 when crusaders started to invade. In Jogaila’s privilege of 1387 it was the only among other rather important castles which was called a real castle instead of small castle. The way of Lithuanian army to Grunwald in 1410 possibly went through Merkinė. p.s.: this panorama was taken last week on a trip to this region. More pics to follow.
