Waypoint introductions and full write-ups

  1. 1. Klaipėda

    Klaipėda is the sea gate of Lithuania, and for most of its history it belonged to somebody else. The Teutonic Knights built a castle at the mouth of the Danė river in 1252, and for seven centuries the town was known as Memel, part of Prussia and then Germany, until it was returned to Lithuania in 1923. Traces of the old name and culture remain in the half-timbered warehouses of the old town, a few of which have been carefully restored, and in a bronze statue of Ännchen von Tharau, the heroine of a seventeenth century German song, standing in the market square.
