Place of origin	Korets, Volhynia

The House of Korecki (Polish: ród Koreckich (Korecki clan), Koreccy) was a princely family of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania origin. The name is derived from the original seat of the family at the Korets Castle, which was part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania at these times (today Rivne Oblast).^[1]

There are two family legends about the descent. By one of them it descended from Patrikas, son of Narymunt, the second eldest son of Gediminas.^[1] By another legend, it derives from Kaributas, son of Algirdas, Grand Duke of Lithuania.^[1][2]

The princely family line became extinct in the 17th century.
