Slepnis atrodas blakus piemineklim, kas veltits bralu kapos apbeditajiem 1905. gada revolucionariem, cinitajiem par padomju varu 1919.g. un 2. pasaules kara kritušajiem sarkanarmiešiem. Izteiksmigs laikmeta monumentalas telniecibas piemineklis.

Piemineklis atrodas kalna, ko agrak deveja par Karatavu kalnu, jo šeit Kurzemes hercogistes laika no 1561. lidz 1795. gadam bijusi soda vieta, kur kartas un dedzinatas raganas un burvji. Velak šo kalnu saka devet par Kapkalnu, jo ap 18. gadsimtu te izveidoja kapsetu.

[ENG]
The cache is a custom made container that caontain PET preform, with a logbook and pencil inside it.
Cache is located near a monument dedicated to the victims of the 1905 Revolution, fighters for Soviet order in Year 1919 and to Red army soldiers who were killed during WWII.

The monument is located on the hill which was formerly known as "Karatavu kalns" (Gallows hill). During Duchy of Courland times(from 1561 till 1795) on this hill witches and sorcerers used to be hanged and burned. Afterwards place was renamed to "Kapkalns" (Cemetery hill) because around the 18th century cemetry was established there.
