Szeligi is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Słupno, within Płock County, Masovian Voivodeship, in east-central Poland.[1]

Szeligi is one of the older villages in the area, as an early medieval Slavic stronghold existed at the site already in the 6th–7th century.[2] In the past the village was divided into two parts, called Szeligi Duże ("Big Szeligi") and Szeligi Małe ("Little Szeligi").[3]
