The project is realized with financial support of European Community in the frames of the Lithuania, Poland and Kaliningrad Region of Russian Federation Neighbourhood Programme
Circulation of a book
written by known Lithuanian ethnographer Nijole Strakauskaite "Curonian
Spit: postal road Koenigsberg-Memel" was purchased at the Project funds.
The book, translated in Russian, German and English, tells the story of the
famous postal road, which more than for one hundred and fifty years (XVII-XVIII
centuries.) was the most important road connecting Europe to the Baltic States
and Russia.
It is supposed to use the
materials of the book to publicize the historical context of the bicycle route
on the Curonian Spit (partially the route runs along the old post road).
