Teschen district, Administrative district in Austrian Silesia, Austria
The district covered 730 square kilometers with its administrative center in the city of Teschen, now divided between Poland and Czech Republic.
From 1868 to 1920, the Teschen district served as a political entity within Austrian Silesia, under the governance of the Habsburg Empire.
The district population included Polish, Czech, and German speakers, with Roman Catholics forming the majority, followed by Protestant and Jewish communities.
