Šeriai airfield was an airfield 80 kilometers north-northwest of Vilnius, Lithuania.
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 small runway, taxiways and two small parking areas west of the runway.
After Lithuanian independence in 1990 the airfield was abandoned.
No photos of the airfield while in use have been located
From what can be seen in Google Earth the airfield is in a fairly good state.
Available aerial photography shows no recognisable buildings at the airfield.
The airfield is uncertified and therefore officially closed to all traffic.
