Pisek is a city in Walsh County, North Dakota in the United States. The population was 96 at the 2000 census. Pisek was founded in 1882, by Czech and Moravian settlers. Pisek was chosen as the name partly because some of the settlers had come from Pisek in the modern Czech Republic, and also because the town was built near a sand ridge and Pisek means sand in Czech.
