Summary

[edit]
Description

On April 4, 2002, a statue of an angel blowing a trumpet was unveiled in the main square. It was intended to symbolize the revival and artistic freedom of the district.

In 1997, the residents of the area declared a Republic of Užupis, with its own flag, currency, president, constitution, and an army (numbering approximately 17 men). They celebrate this independence annually on Užupis Day, which falls on April 1st. Artistic endeavours are the main preoccupation of the Republic and indeed the current President of the Republic of Užupis, Romas Lileikis, is himself a poet, musician, and film director.
