About this cemetery

Eiguliai Cemetery in Kaunas was founded around 1880 as a village cemetery, first used for burying people from the village and surrounding area. After Eiguliai was incorporated into Kaunas in 1959 and 1977 it became a city cemetery. It covers about 12 hectares on the left bank of the Neris, near the Eiguliai hill fort, and contains the Lithuanian circus artists' pantheon.
