Flowers of respect were placed at the monument to the fallen soldiers, memorial candles were lit, and the National Anthem was sung. Patriotic-national songs were performed by the singers of the Kaniavas cultural center art collective (led by Algimantas Vitkus).

The author of these lines shared historical insights.

Kaniava is mentioned as the estate of the Grand Duke of Lithuania in the 14th century. in the description of Lithuanian roads (German: Lithauische Wegeberichte) at the end of XV-XVII centuries. Kaniava with the royal estate and forestry was an important administrative and economic center, called an old town, a town, a city. 18th century – precincts, since the 20th century. the beginning – the center of the town.

August. – Lithuanian SSR, during the German occupation in 1941. in the middle – for the general area of ​​Belarus, 1943 September. – for the general area of ​​Lithuania.

Since 1920 Kaniava was one of the focal points of the fight against the Polish administration’s policy of competition for Lithuania and Lithuanian schools. in 1922 The inhabitants of Kaniava boycotted the elections of the so-called Seimas of Central Lithuania, later – other elections organized by the Poles, as a result they suffered repression (some residents were imprisoned), in 1934 Lithuanian school of “Ryto” educational society is closed.

The residents of Kaniava resisted the Soviet red partisans attacking the village with weapons (they killed one).

in 1944 in the spring of the Lithuanian National Team (LVR, plechavičuikai) the situation of the soldiers in the Vilnius region was very difficult: they had to fight on two fronts – against the Soviet red partisans and the numerous formations of the Polish Army Krajowa (Len. Polska Armia Krajowa; lit. AK, “akovci”), whose main goal was the annexation of the Vilnius region to Poland. The Germans, experiencing huge manpower losses on the Eastern Front, no longer had people to protect strategic objects and transport arteries. Using the LVR for these purposes, they armed it poorly, and in order to turn the events in this troubled land in the direction they wanted, they tried to take advantage of the discord between the Lithuanians and the Poles, to further antagonize them. The Polish “Akovci”, flirting with the Germans, did not conduct any active armed struggle against them, but attacked the Lithuanians with the weapons received from them. There were frequent armed clashes between LVR soldiers and Polish “Akovcs”.
