Orzysz, Municipality in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland
The town of Orzysz extends across 8.16 square kilometers along the shores of Orzysz Lake in northeastern Poland, surrounded by forests and water bodies.
The settlement received its founding charter in 1443 when Wawrzyniec Polak obtained permission from the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order to establish the town.
Religious services in Orzysz were conducted in the Masurian dialect of Polish until the early 18th century, reflecting the local linguistic traditions.
The administrative center serves a population of 5,615 residents and functions as a central point for local governance in the Pisz County region.
The town experienced a complete transformation in 1826 when a massive fire destroyed most structures, leading to an extensive rebuilding process.
