PLACE OF DESECRATION OF LITHUANIAN PARTISANS’ REMAINS

In the years 1944-1953, in the courtyard of the NKVD-MVD-MGB subdivision and the headquarters of exterminators of Radviliškis Country, the remains of partisans of the Green Team (later – Resurrection District) who died in the vicinity of Radviliškis were desecrated. This site of commemoration is marked by undressed grey granite memorial stone erected in memory of the desecrated partisans. A metal plate attached to the stone has the inscription: “PLACE OF DESECRATION OF THE REMAINS OF PARTICIPANTS OF NATIONAL MOVEMENT WHO FOUGHT AND DIED FOR THE FREEDOM OF LITHUANIA IN THE YEARS 1944-1954”. The memorial stone was erected in 1993 at the initiative of Radviliškis Union of Political Prisoners and Deportees.
