Žemaičių Naumiestis
Žemaičių Naumiestis is a town in Klaipėda county, Šilutė district municipality. It is located in western Lithuania between Klaipėda and Kaliningrad Oblast. The rivers Šustis, Šelmuo and Lendra flow through the town.
The town was for centuries located at the border to Prussia and thus gained a specific multi-cultural population structure. Besides Lithuanian inhabitants, the Jewish and German population played a significant role and to some degree the Russian one. As a result of the multi-layered events at the eve of World War II, over the course of the war and in the first decade after the war, this multi-cultural population structure was destroyed. It is reflected exclusively in the architectural heritage of Žemaičių Naumiestis. There is the wooden Catholic St. Michael Church (built in 1782), a Protestant church made of stone (built in 1842) and a stone synagogue (built in 1816).
== Name ==
For a long time the town was called ''Naumiestis'' (Lithuanian) or ''Nowe Miasto'' (Polish). In Yiddish, the town was called ''Neishtot Sugint'' (referring to the closely located estate Sugint). Under tsarist rule, the town in 1884 was renamed ''Aleksandrovsk''. This designation was officially valid until 1918. In the 1920s, the town was called ''Tauragės Naumiestis'' (Lithuanian) or ''Neishtot Tavrik'' (Yiddish) referring to the closely located town Tauragė (Tauroggen) as opposed to other Lithuanian towns by the name of Naumiestis. In the 1930s the designation Žemaičių Naumiestis was introduced and is valid until today.
