Pisz County, Administrative district in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland
Pisz County is an administrative district in the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship of northern Poland with four municipalities. The area is centered around the towns of Pisz, Orzysz, Ruciane-Nida, and Biała Piska, which serve as local hubs.
The county took its current administrative form in 1999 during Poland's government reforms that restructured local authorities. This change was part of a nationwide effort to strengthen regional governance and local representation.
The area maintains local customs that remain alive today through gatherings and festivals held in its four municipalities. People come together to share regional foods and traditions that have been passed down through generations.
Pisz serves as the administrative center and connects the four municipalities through regional roads. Bus connections between the main towns help visitors move around without needing a car.
Much of this county sits within the Puszcza Piska, one of Masuria's largest forest complexes that contains multiple nature reserves. These woodlands shape the landscape and support local wood processing activities.
