Karmazinai mound, Archaeological hillfort in Vilnius District Municipality, Lithuania

The Karmazinai mound rises near the confluence of the Dūkšta and Neris rivers, surrounded by dense forest in the Dzūkija region.

The hillfort, positioned 800 meters northwest of Karmazinai village, represents an ancient settlement pattern characteristic of Lithuanian defensive structures from earlier periods.

Archaeological investigations at Karmazinai mound contribute to the understanding of social organization and military strategies of early Lithuanian communities.

Visitors can access the mound site through marked paths from the nearby Karmazinai village, which maintains regular connections with the Vilnius district.
