Castle in 1957

Sadness thing is that castle was blown up during soviet times
There is/was a plan (I haven't heard a long time about it anymore in Kaliningrad news papers) to rebuild this castle, with the help of Rosatom, which wants to build a plant a few miles away from this village.

That would be great, but I guess they aren't going to do that anymore since there isn't anything written about it anymore in the news papers or online for the last few years.....

RS_UK I will give him the better map, this is the only map which could satisfy 2,7 mln. Lithuanians right now. Don't you know that even the Ukrainians are actually Lithuanians, but unfortunately they do not now it!

Even "Marjebnurgas" sounds like the ancient heritage of Lietuva ! Probably they founded the town.
