Ørje is a small town located in Marker municipality in southeastern Norway, situated along the Halden Canal. The town has historical significance due to its position on this important waterway, which was vital for timber transportation in the past.

The area features a well-preserved system of locks from the late 19th century, which are now both a cultural monument and a tourist attraction. These locks represent an important piece of Norwegian industrial heritage and demonstrate the engineering achievements of their time. The town maintains its connection to local history through the Haldenvassdragets Kanalmuseum (Canal Museum), which documents the area's waterway history and cultural development.
