Go back to route“...No, it’s not a town, just lost farmhouses scattered on the western hill of the lake, where a narrow strip of land connects the hill with the land.” (1934)
First wooden bridge over Lake Asveja in Lithuania. Surviving drawings of the bridge, with the original signature of the engineer Anatolijus Rozenbliumas. At the time, it was also the longest wooden bridge: 90 metres long and 6 metres wide. The design of this bridge is still astounding to this day. Two-storey wooden summerhouse of Antanas Smetona, burnt down by the retreating Home Army, only the foundation remains today. Dubingiai Primary School; for a long time, Polish was the teaching language at this school, and only in the interwar period did it change to Lithuanian. The tavern, built by Count Benediktas Tiškevičius in the 19th century, is a true landmark of Dubingiai. The famous scene in the film by Balys Bratkauskas where Tadas Blinda dies was filmed there. From the scenes in the film: Tadas Blinda runs into a tavern in Dubingiai but runs out of it already in Žasliai Square. Thanks to the patronage of the Rakauskas family, St George’s Church was rebuilt in 2012 exactly where the foundations of the old church had remained.
