Užsieniai air field is an abandoned airfield 155 kilometers west of Vilnius.
The airfield was built by the Soviet Union in the 1975-1985 timeframe.
It was used for agricultural activities by state-run Aeroflot.
It consisted of a small runway, taxiways, a medium sized and a small platform to the south 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 still recognisable, but cannot be used anymore.
A church building was erected on the western third of the runway.
The runway and taxitracks now appear to be used as access roads and car parking.
