Currie is a city in Murray County, Minnesota, United States.

Minnesota State Highway 30 passes through the south side of the community, leading east 6 miles (10 km) to Dovray and west, then south, 10 miles (16 km) to Slayton, the Murray county seat.

Murray County Road 38 runs north and south through Currie, and U.S. Highway 59 is 4 miles (6 km) to the west.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Currie has an area of 0.55 square miles (1.42 km2), all of it recorded as land.

[1] The Des Moines River has its source 1 mile (1.6 km) northwest of Currie, at the outlet of Lake Shetek, then flows through the north side of Currie and continues to the southeast toward Windom.

Founded in 1872 by Neil and Archibald Currie, this place was thought to be the most beautiful country with the Des Moines River moving across the prairie and Lake Shetek in the west.

It is an authentic reproduction of the Currie railroad yards as they were around the turn of the 20th century.

District Number One, the Sunrise School, was moved to End-O-Line Park and restored by the Murray County Historical Society.

The embossed tin ceilings and walls, vertical wainscoting, recitation bench and many blackboards are typical, but the triangular sunrise worked into the front and back of the schoolhouse is unique.

The one-room school with tin dinner pails, water cooler, washbasin, old world maps, bell tower and rope, ink wells, and cloakrooms brings back memories to share with children.

Just north of town, Lake Shetek is a popular vacation destination for people from all over southwest Minnesota.
