Poryte, Rural village in Stawiski commune, Poland

Poryte stands in northeastern Poland within Kolno County of Podlaskie Voivodeship, about 78 kilometers west of the regional capital Białystok.

The village emerged from two separate settlements, Poryte Szlacheckie and Poryte Wloscianskie, with the establishment of a parish in 1386 marking its early development.

The village maintains connections to the Kisielnicki family of the Topór coat of arms, with numerous family members resting in the local cemetery.
