The monument to Salomėja Nėris, erected in 1974 on Vilniaus Street near the former Second Secondary School, commemorates the poet's memory. The sculpture, created by Vladas Vildžiūnas and architects Gediminas Baravykas and Gytis Ramūnis, captures the drama of the poet's life and work. The asymmetrical and dynamic bust composition emphasizes intense experiences, while the facial expression and gaze reflect a deep emotional impression. The stylized strands of hair symbolize images of the sea, wind, and storms, which are characteristic of Salomėja Nėris's poetry. The monument is set against a decorative wall, creating a harmonious connection with the surrounding environment.
