Location and history

Węgorzewo is located in northeastern Poland, close to the border with Russia (Kaliningrad enclave). The town is scenic, surrounded by lakes and flowed by the river Węgorapa. Two canals: the Węgorzewo Canal and the Mill Canal connect the rivers south and north of the city. In one place, the river expands to a lake-like area. Here you will find marina.
Węgorzewo was founded in 1335 and became a market town in 1412.
