Mielnik, Medieval village in Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland

Mielnik sits on elevated terrain near the Belarus border, with the Siemiatycze district spreading across both banks of the Bug River.

The settlement experienced significant changes when it received town rights in 1440 from Duke Bolesław IV and later became part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

The village preserves traditional wooden architecture and religious buildings that reflect the historical blend of Catholic and Orthodox Christian influences in the region.

Visitors can reach Mielnik by taking regional buses from Siemiatycze, located 17 kilometers northwest, or from the regional capital Białystok, 88 kilometers north.

The Union of Mielnik, signed in 1501, marked an important political agreement between Alexander I Jagiellon and Lithuanian nobles regarding succession rights.
