Using the Belinsky--Zakharov generating technique and a flat metric as aseed, two- and four-soliton solutions of the Einstein vacuum equations for thecases of stationary axisymmetric, cylindrically symmetric, or plane symmetricgravitational fields are considered. Three- and five-parameter classes of exactsolutions are obtained, some of which are new.
