Mokas, Glacial boulder in Pabaiskas Eldership, Lithuania
The Mokas boulder stands 6 meters long and 4 meters high, emerging from the ground near Lake Tauragnas in the Pabaiskas region of Lithuania.
During the last ice age, glaciers transported this massive stone across northern Europe from Finland to its current location in Lithuania.
Lithuanian folklore tells of Mokas, a man who turned to stone from grief after his wife drowned in Lake Tauragnas while teaching his family to swim.
The boulder sits in a maintained park area with mowed grass, offering continuous access throughout the week for visitors wanting to explore the site.
Next to Mokas lies a smaller boulder called Mokiukas, which according to legend represents the petrified son of the transformed man.
