Naujoji Romuva (Lithuanian: New Romuva) was a weekly cultural and arts magazine which was published in Lithuania between 1931 and 1940. It was one of the most significant publications in the country during its lifetime.

History and profile

Naujoji Romuva was started as a weekly magazine in Kaunas in 1931.[1] Juozas Keliuotis was the editor of the magazine which targeted public figures, scholars, teachers, and artists. Soon after its start the magazine became very popular. Its goal was to present a contemporary version of the Catholic belief. It attempted to organize the right-wing intellectuals and to harmonize the relations between the Christian Democrats and the National Party.[1]

Naujoji Romuva featured not only articles but also rich visual materials to reinforce a conservative approach in Lithuanian art.[1]

The headquarters of Naujoji Romuva was moved from Kaunas to Vilnius in 1940.[2] The magazine was closed by the Soviet authorities the same year shortly after the invasion of Lithuania.[1]

A quarterly magazine with the same title was established in Lithuania in the 1990s.[3]
