Buivydžiai ( Polish: Bujwidze) is a village in Vilnius District Municipality, Lithuania. According to the 2011 census, it had 272 residents. [1] It is located some 17 kilometres (11 mi) east of Nemenčinė and 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) west of the state border with Belarus. The village is situated on the left bank of the Neris River near its confluence with tributary Buivydė. [2]
Early references to the place are dated by 1537. The name is most probably derived from the Lithuanian name Buivydas. [3] [4] The village eventually developed around a manor, acquired by noble Cyprian Brzostowski in the first half of 17th century. Later the manor was reconstructed by architect Laurynas Gucevičius.
A wooden octagonal church, named after Saint George, was built in 1785. The church burned down in 1982; a brick replacement church was completed in 1986.
