Works of art by Kazimieras Ulianskas, the sculptor, abound in the park: the
monument for poet Adomas Mickevičius (built in 1911), the monument for
Vytautas, the Great Duke of Lithuania (built in 1912), the sculpture of Holy
Maiden Mary, the grandiose gate of park, the bridge ornamented by sculptures
of lions. The park is traversed by many pathways. 12 small bridges connect
the islets.
