The most attractive place for visitors is the Agluonėnai Park, with its grove of oak trees that perpetuate the history of both Lithuania and Lithuania Minor. The Lietuvininkai Oak Grove was established there, incorporating a monument consisting of an arch and an oak leaf-shaped funerary sculpture (Lith. Krikštas, the term for an original sculptural structure on tombs in Lithuania Minor) erected in memory of the Lietuvininkai (Prussian Lithuanians) of the region of Lithuania Minor (artists: J. Čepas and artists from the Klaipėda region), and later supplemented with other christenings to commemorate the most prominent personalities of Lithuania Minor: K. Donelaitis, M. Mažvydas, L. Rėza, Vydūnas, I. Simonaitytė and R. Kant, who was the great-grandfather of I. Kant.
