For generations, the linden of Valdemārpils has been the thickest linden tree in the Baltics. Legends tell it has served as an ancient cult tree for centuries; its estimated age is 400–500 years. The linden’s mighty branches bend to the ground as well as rise to the sky, creating a sanctuary or art gallery filled small sculptures and knick-knacks. Being inside, you may grasp the tree's centuries-old vitality, with cracks in the wood appearing like mythical spirits from ancient fairy tales.
