Valpenes piramīda, Stone sculpture in Dundaga Parish, Latvia.
The Valpenes piramida stands 9 meters tall with a base circumference of 38 meters, constructed from carefully arranged stones in a pyramidal shape.
Created by sculptor Vilnis Titans in 1990, the structure commemorates Latvian folklorist Krisjanis Barons near the location of his first school.
Each stone in the pyramid carries inscriptions of folk songs, cardinal directions, and names of 33 historical houses from the Valpene village.

The stones forming the pyramid are positioned according to the geographical directions of the former village houses they represent.
