Autograph of singer Stasys Povilaitis

The autograph of singer and songwriter Stasys Povilaitis, which adorns the façade of the Palanga Concert Hall, has been officially recognized as the largest signature in the country. This Lithuanian record was registered by the Factum agency.
Having lived and performed in Palanga for a long time, S. Povilaitis’ name is closely associated with the resort. For decades, S. Povilaitis’ songs, which delighted the whole of Lithuania, resounded in the former Palanga summer stage, which was converted into the modern Palanga Concert Hall after reconstruction. The maestro’s autograph, which adorns the facade of the Concert Hall, symbolizes the history of Lithuanian pop music and the inseparable connection between S. Povilaitis and this hall.
S. Povilaitis’ autograph adorns the facade of the Palanga Concert Hall after the project’s creators won a competition announced by the Palanga City Municipality to commemorate S. Povilaitis. The projects submitted for the competition were evaluated by a specially formed commission. It selected the project “Autograph” as the winner.
S. Povilaitis’ autograph is 6.96 m long and 1.19 m high. It was unveiled on the facade of the Palanga Concert Hall on June 1 this year.
The composition “Autograph” was created by sculptor Romas Klimavičius and architect Gerda Antanaitytė.
