Le Vigen (French pronunciation: [lə viʒˈɑ̃]; Occitan: Lo Vijan) is a commune in the Haute-Vienne department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region in west-central France.

The village lies on the right bank of the Briance, which flows westward through the commune.

The village is said to be the place where Saint Thillo (c. 608–702) died. The church of Saint Mathurin was later built over the oratory where the saint died, although no trace of the oratory has survived.^[3]
