The city of Klaipėda has been involved in maritime trade since as early as the 13th century, and probably during prehistoric times, since it is located on the Amber Road. For several centuries its administration and its merchants defended the port and competed with the Port of Danzig and the Port of Königsberg. It was heavily fortified. At the beginning of the 19th century the port was transferred to the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Transport of the Republic of Lithuania. Before World War I, the major cargo was timber. During the 20th century, mineral and cellulose enterprises were established in Lithuania, and became port commodities. Infrastructures supporting the fishing and shipbuilding industries were also built.In 1991, after Lithuanian independence was declared, the Klaipėda State Seaport Authority was founded. It administers the port and supports its integration into the larger scheme of Lithuanian transport. The Port Authority is responsible for the maintenance, reconstruction and modernisation of the port infrastructure, while loading and unloading operations are managed by separate independent terminals. The port's land and infrastructure belong to the state, but some privatisization is underway.
The Port of Klaipėda is the most northerly ice-free port in the Eastern part of the Baltic Sea. The port can accommodate ships of up to 250 meters in length with draughts of up to 13.5 meters. The port is served by two railway stations, and highways link Klaipėda to Moscow via Kaunas, Vilnius, and Minsk.
In 1997, 16.13 million tons of cargo were handled at the port, increasing to over 31 million tons in 2010. About 321,000 international passengers transhipped the port of Klaipėda in 2010, on ferries servicing Kiel and Mukran in Germany, Åhus in Sweden, and Copenhagen and Fredericia in Denmark. The port of Klaipėda is also the leading port among the Baltics by handling of containers (382 th. of TEU in 2011).

Ši nuotrauka atsitiktinai padaryta. Aišku būtų labai sunku atspėti kas tai. :) Vieną darbo dieną eidamas pro šalį darbe pastebėjau jog ant žemės guli plataus diametro (apie 150mm) varinis vamzdis. Pakėlęs ji pamačiau gražiai sklindančią šviesą iš apačios(apačia buvo uždengta raudonu dangteliu),o vamzdžio viduje skraidė kelios gipso dulkės. Numetęs vamzdį ant žemės, dulkės dar labiau pasklido po jį. Išsitraukiau telefona, pykš ir štai ką matote. P.s. nuotraukos koregavimas nenaudotas, apart mažinimo ir sq kirpimo.(This photo is randomly done. Obviously it would be very difficult to guess what it is. :) One day passed by I noticed that the work on the ground lies a large diameter (about 150mm) copper pipe. Along the way she saw the beautiful light emanating from the bottom (the bottom was covered with a red cap), and inside the pipe flew some plaster dust. Dropping the pipe on the ground, the dust even more spread out it. I got out the phone, angry, and that's what you see. P.S. When you photo correction unused, flat cuts and cutting sq.)
