For centuries, the hillfort known as Stakliškės II lay hidden under the trees of Prienai's stretch of farmlands. Today, it stands quietly on its own, the remnants of a once-powerful settlement awaiting the curious casual stroller. Stakliškės II, with its rectangular shape, is situated 850 meters to the east of Stakliškių I piliakalnis. It is dated from the 1st to 2nd century AD and is listed as a cultural heritage monument by the Lithuanian Government in 1998. The area covered by the hillfort is 7400 square meters.
