Soviet War Cemetery Jurbarkas

On the main road there is a Soviet war cemetery from the Second World War. About 200 dead are buried here, most of them fell in 1944, a number in 1941 and a few in 1945.
Central is the statue of the Soviet soldier with flag. To the left of it appears to be a construction for an eternal flame, but the flame has gone out. Immediately to the right of the image are the graves of a Soviet Union hero, a Lithuanian soldier, a Russian captain and 5 unknown Soviet soldiers. There are also 24 plaques with names.
