Located in "Baižēni", Priekuli parish

A memorial site for the repressed was established on the site of the ruins of the “Baižēni” house barn, where 40 residents of Jaunrauna parish were held on the night of March 25, 1949, so that in the morning their path would lead them further to the Lode railway station and Siberia.

Among those repressed were children under the age of 1 and 87-year-olds.

The memorial plaque also contains the names of those who were shot or died in exile. Nearby are memorial stones for the cavaliers of the Lāčplēsis War Order.
