Verstaminai-IV Mound is situated in Verstaminai, a location that differs from the previous mounds (Verstaminai I, II, III) which are located in Verstaminai. Study the hillfort and you'll find it lies roughly 2km from Verstaminai-Teizai. Its quadrilateral shape reveals a gate, situated on the southwest corner, approximately 45x25 meters in size, 2 meters deep, and 1m high. The gate features three staggered slits, with the central one being the highest. Constructed of stone, the hillfort boasts a triangular indentation at its pinnacle. Uncovered in 1965 by the Institute of History, Verstaminai-IV Mound is preserved as a cultural heritage object on a 27000-square-meter expanse.
