Chronicle of the Catholic Church in Lithuania

The Chronicle of the Catholic Church in Lithuania (Lithuanian: Lietuvos katalikų bažnyčios kronika or LKB kronika) was the longest-running and best-known samizdat periodical in the Lithuanian SSR, one of the republics of the Soviet Union.

[3] It focused on repressions against Catholics in Lithuania, but also included reports of other violations of human rights in the Soviet Union.

[4] Selections from its reports regularly appeared in the Moscow-based Chronicle of Current Events; in turn items from Russia and Ukraine were translated into Lithuanian.

[6] The writers and the publishers were routinely interrogated, arrested, and imprisoned by the KGB, including its founder and first editor Sigitas Tamkevičius.

Other writers and collaborators included Petras Plumpa, Nijolė Sadūnaitė, Gerarda Elena Šuliauskaitė, Bernadeta Mališkaitė, Kazimieras Ambrasas.
