Let's rephrase that question.

"What's the closest galaxy?"

The closest galaxy to ours, the Milky Way, is the Andromeda galaxy, which is about 2.2 million light years from the Milky Way.

Comments: I think this question is really about the idea that the Universe may be "closed". That's just a technical term referring to the theoretical case where the Universe would not expand for ever, but would start to contract.

(The technicalities are quite complicated involving the overall geometry of the Universe.)
