Wigry () is a small village in the administrative district of Gmina Suwałki, within Suwałki County, Podlaskie Voivodeship, in north-eastern Poland,[1] a short-lived former Roman Catholic bishopric and presently a Latin Catholic titular see.
It lies approximately 10 kilometres (6 mi) east of Suwałki and 106 km (66 mi) north of the regional capital Białystok.
The local landmark is the Baroque monastery with the Immaculate Conception church.
Ecclesiastical history
The Diocese of Wigry was established on 25 March 1798 on territories split off from the then dioceses of Samogitia (now Metropolitan Archdiocese of Kaunas) and Vilnius (now also Metropolitan Archdiocese) and former Luck (merged).
It was suppressed on 30 June 1818, after only two incumbents, its territory being reassigned to establish the Diocese of Sejny, to which its last incumbent was appointed.
