Korsør is a town in Zealand, Denmark. It is located in Slagelse Municipality.
Until 2007 Korsør was the seat of Korsør Municipality. The
town is located 15 km (9.3 mi) west of Slagelse, 12 km
(7.5 mi) north-west of Skælskør and
connects to Nyborg through
the Great Belt Bridge.
Formerly the
main ferry port from Zealand to Funen, the town of Korsør
is divided into two halves by the Korsør Nor inlet, with the northern part
named Halsskov. Most of the historical southern part of Korsør (Korsør proper)
is low-lying and prone to flooding.
