Boundary marker no. 0001 is located at the Baltic Sea coast.  

Position: 56° 04' 09"N 21° 03' 55"E. 

The new boundary marker is standing next to the old concrete marker from the 1930s.  As late as in the 1992 there was also a similar old border marker on Latvian side. 

From east towards the Baltic Sea and west. 

From the border marker and towards east. 

From south and towards north and Latvia. A possibility is that the old Latvian marker was destroyed during stormy weather.

Same angle as above, but from slightly greater distance. 

Similar as above, but slightly more towards northwest. 

On a photo from 1992 with two Lithuanian border guards we can also see a similar 
monument on the Latvian side which now is absent.  We also notice that the distance 
to the sea appeared to be longer than on the 2012 photo.  Photo: Romualdas Požeskis. 

From west towards the border marker from the beach. 

The point was visited in June 2012.
