Sculpture Park in Klaipėda Memorial site

The park is located in Klaipėda between K. Donelaičio, Liepų, Trilapio and S. Daukanto streets.
Sculpture Park in Klaipėda is a multi-layered witness to the history of the city and of the world. A cemetery, a park, a memorial, a place for art – all this and more can be accommodated in one area.
In 1944–1945, the Soviet occupiers regained their positions in  ithuania, but Klaipėda was left without its old inhabitants. The once new, now old, city cemetery was left neglected. Finally, in 1977, it was disposed of, a Sculpture Park was built instead, and the installation of artworks began.
Today, the park is known as an open-air sculpture gallery of Lithuania’s mature modernism. 116 works created during the Soviet period (1977–1989) are on display here. Alongside works of art and relics of the ancient cemetery, monuments are also displayed here:
• Memorial to the events of the 1923 Klaipėda Uprising (1925);
• Memorial to the Soviet soldiers of World War II (1949–1980), part
of which was dismantled in 2022 after the outbreak of the war
of Russia against Ukraine;
• a memorial stone to the old inhabitants of Klaipėda – the
Memelenders (1992).
French prisoners of the Franco-Prussian War, German Imperial soldiers of the First World War, soldiers of Independent Lithuania, Belgian, Polish and French prisoners of the Second World War are also honoured with commemorative signs.
