Alytus 2011
This is a FDC of the commemorative stamps of Alytaus kraštotyros muziejus (Alytus regional museum) cancelled in Alytus on 04/06 2011. The first day cancellation depicts the wooden statue of saint John of Nepomuk which the museum owns. John of Nepomuk was a Czech saint (called Jan Nepomucký in Czech) popular in Lithuania during the Catholic counter-reformation period, depicted in numerous places throughout the country including the coat of arms of Anykščiai.
