The cult of holy woods was widely spread in the land of Cursa. The trees, animals, and birds dwelling in the holy forest were inviolable. In the holy groves, there were usually several holy sites.
Remained from the former Idols’ Grove is just small tree clusters on both sides of the Kuldīga–Aizpute highway. The highway crosses the sacred grove right in the middle. On both sides of the highway there is a bushy forest with deciduous trees where several old linden trees can be noticed. The most remarkable tree in the grove is an old and picturesque secular linden E of the highway, in the southern edge of the grove. The circumference of the secular linden is 4.28 metres.
