Korsze, Railroad junction town in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland.

Korsze functions as a central transportation hub in northern Poland, connecting major railway lines between Olsztyn, Skandawa, Ełk, and Bartoszyce.

The development of Korsze accelerated in the early 1900s with the construction of three water towers that supported the expanding railway infrastructure.

The town maintains a connection to metal music through Krzysztof Raczkowski, the former drummer of death metal band Vader, who lived and was buried here.

The town spans 4.03 square kilometers and maintains a population density of 990 people per square kilometer, with postal services operating under code 11-430.

Among the three water towers in Korsze stands a rare Klönne-type structure, representing one of only three such designs in existence.
