Šumperk District, Administrative district in Olomouc Region, Czech Republic.

The district spans 1,313 square kilometers of diverse terrain, encompassing mountains, river valleys, and forests across 78 municipalities with Šumperk as its capital.

The region's development was marked by German settlers in the 13th century, followed by centuries of mining activities and textile production until industrial changes.

The district preserves numerous heritage sites, including Velké Losiny Castle, the historic Paper Mill, and protected monument zones in Branná and Mohelnice.

The D35 motorway connects the district's main towns while the Morava River flows through several municipalities, supporting local agriculture and industry.
