Flag and coat of arms of Jasiunai (Vilnius county - Vilniaus
apskritis, Salcininkai district - Salcininku rajonas). The flag
is according to my personal observation from the flag show of
Mindaugas coronation 750th anniversary. The coat of arms is drawn
according to image from the catalogue of exposition in the
Parliament of the Republic of Lithuania, March 15-30, 2002.

Jasiunai (Salcininkai District) - On a red field a silver
column between two golden 7-pointed stars. Flag proportions 5:6,
free edges bordered with a narrow golden stripe, finial is a
golden tip. The column refers both to the Jasiunai Palace of
a late classicism style and the letter "I", which in
the old Latin alphabet also meant "J", the initial
letter of the town's name. Two stars symbolize the closely
related families Balinski and Sniadecki, the kin
of many luminaries of culture, also their famous friends
(Adam Mickiewicz, Jan and Juliusz Slowacki, Stanislovas Jundzilas
and many others), who lived in Jasiunai or visited it: through
all of them Jasiunai was an important regional centre of culture
in the early 19th century.
