Sighet is a town in Transylvania, Romania, where Elie Wiesel, the author of the book "Night," was born. It is also where Wiesel and his family were living when they were deported to Auschwitz during the Holocaust. Sighet is a significant setting in the book, as it represents the loss of innocence and the beginning of Wiesel's harrowing journey through the concentration camps.
