Reketija () is a village in the Liubavas Eldership, Kalvarija Municipality, Marijampolė County, in southern Lithuania, near the border with Poland.
==History== The village formed part of the Trakai Voivodeship of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth until it was annexed by Prussia in the Third Partition of Poland in 1795. In 1807, it became part of the short-lived Polish Duchy of Warsaw, and after its dissolution it became part of Russian-controlled Congress Poland in 1815. As of 1827, the village had a population of 298, which by the 1880s grew to 352.
