Seredžius is a town on the banks of the Neman River in Lithuania.
The town's Palemon hill mound is the site of a 13th century hillfort and has a spectacular view of the Neman valley. Its neo-renaissance John the Baptist church was built in 1913. A palace of the Tyszkiewicz family, called the Belvedere, was constructed nearby. Seredžius was the birthplace of Al Jolson, the famous U.S. entertainer of the early twentieth century who was the star of the first "talking film"--the first commercial movie with sound.
