Pandėlys () is a city in northern Lithuania. It is located some west from Rokiškis, on the road to Biržai. Apaščia River originates near the town and flows through it.
==History== The origins of the name are associated with trade. One explanation goes that the name was derived from a word meaning "warehouse." Merchants from Vilnius and Riga would meet and exchange the goods somewhere in the area. Lithuanians called their storage places podėlis and Latvians – pondėlis. The other explanation claims that the name comes from panedėlis – Monday, the day of the week when the market was open.
