===Lithuania=== The design of the arms of [[Jurbarkas]] is believed to originate from the arms of the [[Sapieha]] house, a [[Lithuanian noble]] family which was responsible for Jurbarkas receiving [[Magdeburg law|city rights]] and a coat of arms in 1611.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.jurbarkotic.lt/about-region|title=Jurbarkas Tourist Information Centre - About region|website=www.jurbarkotic.lt|access-date=2018-10-13}}</ref><ref name="ngw">{{Cite web|url=http://www.ngw.nl/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Jurbarkas|title=Jurbarkas - Herb Jurbarkas (coat of arms, crest)|website=www.ngw.nl|date=22 September 2018 |language=en-GB|access-date=2018-10-13}}</ref> The three ''fleurs-de-lis'' design on the Jurbarkas coat of arms was abolished during the [[History of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth (1764–1795)|final years]] of the [[Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth]], but officially restored in 1993 after the [[Act of the Re-Establishment of the State of Lithuania|independence]] of present-day Lithuania was re-established. Before restoration, several variant designs, such as using one over two ''fleurs-de-lis'', had been restored and abolished. The original two over one version was briefly readopted in 1970 during the [[Baltic states under Soviet rule (1944–1991)|Soviet occupation]], but abolished that same year.<ref name="rimsa">{{Cite book|title=Heraldry of Lithuania|last=Rimša|first=Edmundas Antanas|publisher=|year=1998|isbn=|location=|pages=}}</ref> {{multiple image | align = center | image1 = Flag of Jurbarkas.png | total_width = 320 | alt1 = | caption1 = [[Flag and coat of arms of Jurbarkas|Flag of Jurbarkas]] | image2 = Jurbarkas COA.svg | alt2 = | caption2 = [[Flag and coat of arms of Jurbarkas|Coat of arms of Jurbarkas]] | footer = }}
