Šventaragis' Valley is a valley at the confluence of Neris and Vilnia Rivers in Vilnius, Lithuania. According to a legend recorded in the Lithuanian Chronicles, it was where Lithuanian rulers were cremated before the Christianization of Lithuania in 1387. Maciej Stryjkowski further recorded that it was the location of a pagan temple dedicated to Perkūnas, the god of thunder. While the legends are generally dismissed as fiction by historians, they have been studied and analysed from the perspective of pre-Christian Lithuanian mythology by Vladimir Toporov, Gintaras Beresnevičius, Norbertas Vėlius, Vykintas Vaitkevičius, and others.

  • La valle di Šventaragis (letteralmente dal lituano tempio sacro) è una valle situata alla confluenza dei fiumi Neris e Vilnia a Vilnius, la capitale della Lituania. Secondo una leggenda riportata nelle cronache lituane, si trattava del luogo in cui i governanti lituani venivano cremati prima della cristianizzazione nel 1387. Maciej Stryjkowski affermò inoltre che sul posto sorgeva un tempio pagano dedicato a Perkūnas, il dio del tuono. Le leggende sono generalmente considerate dagli storici come pura finzione, ma il loro studio è stato interessante per ricostruire alcuni aspetti della mitologia lituana da parte di Vladimir Toporov, Gintaras Beresnevičius, Norbertas Vėlius, Vykintas Vaitkevičius e altri autori.
