Immaculate Conception church in Wigry, Parish church in Wigry, Poland.

The Immaculate Conception Church stands on two terraces of different heights, secured by retaining walls with the main building on the upper level.

Built between 1694 and 1745 by architect Pietro Putini, the church became a cathedral of the new Wigry diocese after Camaldolese monks relocated to Warsaw in 1800.

The church contains seven altars, including the main one reconstructed in 1962 using original fragments that form an openwork sculpture of the Virgin Mary.

Sunday masses take place at 9:00, 12:00, and 19:00 from June to September, with additional service at 10:30 in Maćkowa Ruda.

The interior features barrel vaulting in the main nave, with three bay divisions created by arcades and six altars in the side chapels.
