"Antaliepte is a village with a monastery, a water mill and
a church of the baroque style. There is a wonderful landscape,
called "Switzerland" with the nearby rivulet Savasa.
You can jump from stone to stone down its stream up to the river
Sventoji without getting wet your shoes."

Antaliepte - on a white field with a blue pale
(white-blue-white 1-2-1) a small silver bridge and above a golden
Latin cross.
Flag proportions 10:13, free edges bordered with a narrow silver
stripe, finial is a golden knob.
The bridge is canting: "antaliepte" means "place
on / at a small bridge" in Lithuanian. The cross attributes
both the local church of Discovery of St. Cross and
symbolizes the merits of monks (monasteries existed there in
18th - early 19th centuries and in early 20th century) for
the enlightenment of the local people. Blue symbolizes loyalty
and fortitude of the local people.
