This cache has been archived.

Leptoceratops: Hello!
I'm archiving your cache as it has been disabled for more than a one month and it is lost, completely damaged or inappropriate. Caches should be visited and maintained within 30 days after disabling.
Archiving a geocache is meant to be a permanent action. If a cache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance, it will not be unarchived.

If there are still leftovers from container I would appreciate if other players could collect them so that there is no trash in the nature.

Happy geocaching!

Geocache Description:

[LT] Lobis yra paslėptas salia vieno is triju Verkiu malunu - vidurines dalies, dar vadintos vandens kelykla. Lobis yra didele deze su piestuku, logbuku, ir keliom smulkmenom.

[EN]Cache is hidden near the remains of one of three Verkiai water mills. Cache is a regular box with a pencil, a logbook and a few small items inside.

[LT] Vanduo kelis simtmecius buvo pagrindinis Verkiu dvaro energijos saltinis. Verkiu centrineje dalyje, patvenkus bevardi upeli, susidare tvenkiniu kaskada, kurios triju tvenkiniu vandens istekliai buvo naudojami vandens jegainems. Pirmuosius du malunus prie sio upelio tvenkiniu suprojektavo L. Stuoka-Gucevičius. Dabartinis arciausiai Neries esantis malunas pastatytas jau XIX a. antrojoje puseje. Dazniausiai vandens kelimo stotimi vadinamas, kitas malunas stovi upelio slenyje – kiek auksciau nei pirmasis. Dar viena  vandens jegaine yra buvusi ties mazuoju tvenkiniu, greta Zaliuju Ezeru gatves. Autentisko pastato nera net likuciu, tiktai prastos bukles uztvanka. Lobiuka rasite prie vidurines maluno komplekso dalies - vandens kelyklos. Saugokites mugliu, geru oru ten daug mamyciu ir teveliu su vezimeliais, begiku ir kitokiu nepazistanciu geocachingo : ) Pasistenkite lobi padeti taip pat kaip radote! Koordinates gali lengvai grybauti, tad pasiulykite savo varianta, busiu labai dekingas! Ieskokite nugriuvusio sienos gabalo, paieskas teskite aplink ji.

[EN] For several centuries, water was the only source of energy for Verkiai manor. In the central part of Verkiai an unnamed creek was dammed, forming a three level water cascade, used with water plants. The first two mills were designed and built by famous lithuanian architect Laurynas Stuoka-Gucevicius. Currently, the one closest to river Neris is used as a restaurant. It was built in the XIX century. The second mill, a bit higher than the first one, was built in the valley of the creek. The third water mill-dam was built near a little pond in the Zaliuju Ezeru street. Sadly, the third mill did not survive, leaving only a dam, which is in quite poor condition. You will find the cache near the second water plant, which is in the middle of the mill-complex. Be aware of muggles and try to put the cache back exactly as you found it! Look for a broken wall!
