Corcelles is a municipality in the Jura bernois administrative district in the canton of Bern in Switzerland.

After Napoleon's defeat and the Congress of Vienna, Corcelles was assigned to the Canton of Bern in 1815.

From 1830 until 1842, the iron was smelted in a blast furnace by Ludwig von Rolls.

While the iron industry was important to the region, the village was isolated and difficult to reach.

In 1904-08, the Solothurn-Moutier railway built a railroad bridge to link the village to the rest of the country.
