Technical and other monuments

In 1933 in Ciobiskis a bridge across the river Muse was built and named in honour of first Lithuanian pilots Darius and Girenas who crossed the Atlantic. The bridge was renewd couple years ago. There is a 100 years old watermill beside this bridge, but nowadays Muse River has a new watercourse which debouches into Neris River. Today the watermill is a private property. The owner is going to renew this unique technical monument and open it for tourists’ visits. A ferry driven by the river flow power joins Ciobiskis with the other Neris River bank, as it was in the past. This ferry is the only in Lithuania.
