Naujoji Akmenė airfield is an abandoned airfield 130 kilometers east-northeast of Riga, Latvia.
The airfield was built by order of the Lithuanian SSR (a state within the Soviet Union) Council of Ministers in the 1975-1985 timeframe.
It was used for agricultural activities by state-run Aeroflot.
It consisted of a 500m runway, a taxiway and a small platform to the northeast of the runway.

From what can be seen in Google Earth the airfield is abandoned.
What appears to be an agricultural building is situated next to the the airfields apron.
The airfield is uncertified and therefore officially closed to all traffic.
