Located in the village of Białobrzegi in the administrative district of Gmina Augustów, within Augustów County, Podlaskie Voivodeship, in north-eastern Poland. It lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) south of Augustów and 78 km (48 mi) north of the regional capital Białystok. In the years 1959 - 1964 was demolished and built, using original art, a new 150 meters on the other side of the road Augustów – Białystok.
