Węgorzewo County, Administrative district in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland.
Węgorzewo County spans across 693 square kilometers of northern Poland, encompassing one town and multiple rural communities near the Russian border.
The county emerged in 2002 through the territorial reorganization of Giżycko County, establishing a new administrative structure in the Warmian-Masurian region.
The region incorporates three distinct gminas - Węgorzewo, Pozezdrze, and Budry - each maintaining their individual administrative practices and local traditions.
The county seat of Węgorzewo serves as the primary administrative center, located 95 kilometers northeast of Olsztyn, the regional capital.
The territory borders the Russian Kaliningrad Oblast to the north, creating an international frontier zone with specific administrative and security requirements.
