Rezgiai (formerly Russian: Резги, Polish: Rezgi, Rezgie)[1] is a village in Kėdainiai district municipality, in Kaunas County, in central Lithuania. According to the 2011 census, the village was uninhabited.[2] It is located 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) from Krakės, 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) from Plinkaigalis, by the Šušvė river and its tributary the Pušynėlis rivulet (with a pond on it). There is a cemetery with a monument to the January Uprising resurgents. Also a lime tree alley of the former manor is still here.

History[edit]

At the end of the 19th century there were three Rezgiai estates by the Šušvė. There was a wooden chapel of St. Eustatius (built in 1759), distillery and water mill. Later there were two estates, one of them belonged to the Jelenskiai, another to the Višnevskiai.[1]
