Šiauliai 1975



This is a Soviet postal stationery of Шяуляй/Šiauliai issued on 8 July 1975. It depicts the Pergalės square (now Prisikėlimo square) in the center of the city. You can see the cathedral of SS Peter & Paul on the background but the Diocese of Šiauliai was established only in 1997, so technically it wasn't a "Cathedral" at the time when this postal stationery has been issued.
