Markuszów (historically also Markuszew) is a village (formerly a town) in Puławy County, Lublin Voivodeship, in eastern Poland. It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Markuszów. The village is situated on the Kurówka River.
Markuszów received its town privileges around 1550, which were confirmed and expanded in 1686. The town was stripped of its municipal status in 1869 as part of Russian reprisals following the January Uprising. Historically, the settlement is located in Lesser Poland (initially in Sandomierz Land, later in Lublin Land). In the second half of the 16th century, it was part of Lublin County in Lublin Voivodeship.
