Vyžuonos is a town in Utena County, Lithuania. According to the 2011 census, the town has a population of 512 people.

==History== thumb|left|175px|St George's Church, Vyžuonos|St George's Church The first documented mention of the Vyžuonos manor, which subsequently belonged to the Radvilas of Biržai from the 16th century until the early 19th century, occurs in the 15th century. The same source also makes the first reference to the town. A Catholic church was constructed in 1406. In the latter half of the 17th century, a Lithuanian Evangelical Reformed Church was built (which subsequently collapsed at the beginning of the 18th century) and a parish school was established during the same period. In 1619, the population of the town was 34 families. During the Northern War in the early 18th century, Vyžuonos was subjected to extensive destruction, resulting in its near-total depopulation. In 1765, the Jewish population was recorded at 103 individuals.
