Ostrava-City District, Administrative district in northeastern Moravian-Silesian Region, Czech Republic.

The district spans 331 square kilometers of diverse terrain, including the Ostrava Basin, Moravian Gate, and Nízký Jeseník mountain ranges.

Coal mining operations in the district, particularly active during the 19th and 20th centuries, shaped the development of Ostrava and surrounding municipalities.

The district contains several significant cultural monuments, including the Michal Mine, Hlubina Mine, and the Lower Vítkovice industrial complex.

The district maintains an extensive public transportation network of buses and trams connecting Ostrava with thirteen surrounding municipalities.

Four major rivers intersect within the district: the Oder, Opava, Ostravice, and Lučina, creating a distinctive water system.
