Location of the partisan bunker in the Pamedžiai (Montvidinė) forest
Bunker

In the Pamedžiai (Montvydinė) forest, in the Plungė district, you can find a cross commemorating partisan battles, testifying to the battles that took place on December 10, 1950. Then, three freedom fighters of the Plateliai Company of the Samogitian Region Sword Regiment Auklėtinis platoon were killed: Vincas Platauna-Audra (born 1929), Juozapas Sakalauskas-Pelėda (born 1928), Pranas Sereckis-Ąžuolas (born 1931), and the platoon commander Ignacas Žabinskis-Auklėtinis (born 1931) was seriously wounded, captured alive and shot in Vilnius on October 11, 1951.

MGB soldiers, together with Salantai militiamen, surrounded a partisan bunker in the Pamedžiai (Montvidinė) forest. When the partisans failed to surrender, a battle broke out near the bunker, which lasted about two hours. Several hand grenades were thrown into the two-part bunker, and automatic rifles were found during a search of the bunker.

In 2019, the partisan bunker was explored by archaeologist Dr. Gediminas Petrauskas. 159 various finds were found (cartridge cases, bullets, hand grenade parts, clothing and equipment items, etc.).

Now, in the place of the bunker, a quadrangular (3x2.6 m in size), up to 1 m deep pit with sloping slopes remains. It is said that the bunker was dug by the Stribs.
