The Papiliakalnės piliakalnis complex is an archaeological site located in the Linkmenys eldership. This historical site consists of a main hillfort and a preceding hillfort, both of which are documented as cultural monuments of the Republic of Lithuania. The site also includes a settlement, making it a significant point of interest for those exploring the local history.
Located southwest of Ginučiai, the complex can be reached via the Kimbariškė - Ginučiai road. It is situated on the right side near the northern end of Lake Linkmenys. The structures are positioned approximately 100 meters north of the Ginučiai hillfort, with all these elements forming a single unified complex.
The site serves as a preserved example of traditional fortifications. By visiting this archaeological area, you can see the distinct layout of the primary and preceding hillforts alongside the remains of the ancient settlement.
