A loaf-type, up to 7 m high hillock, which may have had steepened slopes once. There are many gravel pits and wartime trenches on the plateau, which is 30 m in diameter. Although the Baltic German researchers in the 19th century deemed the hill a castle mound, there is no evidence of that. The occupation layer has not been found. According to legends the hill was made by carrying ground in the hats. On the NW slope of the hill a Sacrificial Stone is found.
Narrative
The hill could have been equipped for the purposes of a cult site, since it does not meet the criteria of a castle mound. According to legends it was created by locals, but actually it its shape is due to the course of the glacier, and there are many similar hills in the nearby vicinity. Not far from the Cepures Hill there is a small lake with a significant name – Kapenitis, which refers to the cemetery, which indeed is located nearby. Here are many ancient burial sites, which were studied by Baltic German researchers already in the 19the century, and recently it was described and studied by Juris Urtans.
