After the Union of Lublin in 1569, the Voivodes of Vilnius (who were senators of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth) were ranked as the fourth highest, while the Castellans of Vilnius were ranked as the sixth highest officers among the Voivodeships of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. After the Third Partition of the Commonwealth, the Vilnius Voivodeship was annexed by the Russian Empire and this position was annulled.{{cite web |title=Lenkijos ir Lietuvos Valstybės padalijimai |url=https://www.vle.lt/Straipsnis/Lenkijos-ir-Lietuvos-Valstybes-padalijimai-26579 |website=vle.lt |access-date=1 December 2019 |language=lt}}
