Veiviržėnai air field was an airfield 230 kilometers west-northwest of Vilnius, Lithuania.
The airfield was built by the Soviet Union in the 1975-1985 timeframe and used for agricultural activities by state-run Aeroflot. It consisted of a small runway and a fairly large platform to the east of the runway.
No photos of the airfield while in use have been located
The airfield appears to be relatively intact. In recent (2017) photography there appears to be a lot of debris on the platform
