But Angel of Gentle Soul did not listen, he was floating above those crystal clear waters wondering about &nbsp;plentiful flocks of fish, &nbsp;changing colors of the birds diving in the waves&nbsp; and silky nets of water plants\u2026He&nbsp; left his hard-working brothers. Using a drooping branch as a swing while chasing colorful butterflies the little Angel forgot all his duties.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has lost his head over these lakes.

Once people climbed onto the highest hill in the neighbourhood of U\u017eutrakiai and from there they saw 3 towers lined up in one direction: of the two local churches and of an island castle in the midst of the lake. In all 3 places people used to worship God.<\/p>\n<p>So it has been decided that this was the right place for the Hill of Angels.<\/p>\n<p>And when this happened The Angel of Gentle Soul woke up, looked around and<\/p>\n<p>exclaimed happily : \u201cThis is where my lost head is &#8211; right under a wing of a wooden Angel!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then he saw more wooden Angels around him silently listening to people praying. \u201cThank you, my Lord, for a larger protection cast over Trakai,\u201d- thought the Angel before returning home.<\/p>\n<p>Translated \u2013 Ina Reichert<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THE&nbsp; PREHISTORY OF THE HILL OF ANGELS OR WHY THE HILL OF ANGELS IS LOCATED EXACTLY HERE Once upon a time being in a very good mood and caught by inspiration our Lord was busy creating the land of Trakai with a great number of &nbsp;Angels assisting him in his daily works.
