City Symbol 

Facing the building of Visaginas Municipality Administration, on a high stela stands the bird rising to the floating clouds with its wings widely-spread – the first symbol of the city. Visaginas is a satellite of one of the most powerful power plants in the world, thus, the crane depicted in the coat of arms of the city has for a long time been a symbol of prudence and vigilance.
Memorial Stone of the City 

The construction of the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant stimulated the development of the plans of a new city. In the summer of 1975, the builders of the power plant brought a huge stone and put it near the first block of apartments. The shape of the stone for many reminds the territory of Lithuania. This stone became a cornerstone of the city and the day when it was brought (10 August) was declared the city birthday.
