Lipsk [lʲipsk], (also Polish: Lipsk nad Biebrzą; Lithuanian: Liepinė; Yiddish: ליפּסק נאַד בּיבּג'ו) is a town in Augustów County, Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland, with 2,520 inhabitants (2004). Lipsk was granted town rights in 1580 by King Stephen Báthory by virtue of a privilege issued in nearby Grodno. It was a royal town until the Third Partition of Poland when it was annexed by Prussia. In 1807 it was regained by Poles as part of the short-lived Duchy of Warsaw. In 1815 it became part of Congress Poland, later on forcibly integrated with Imperial Russia. As part of anti-Polish repressions after the January Uprising, Lipsk was deprived of town rights by the Russian administration in 1869. Under Russian rule, it was known as Лейпциг на Бебже. It was part of Poland again, after the country again regained independence in 1918. More information...
