The district spans 1,942 square kilometers across three climate zones, from dry subtropical areas to mild cold forest regions near the Lesser Caucasus mountains.

The district, established on August 8, 1930, developed its wine production heritage through German settlers who introduced vineyard cultivation methods in the region.

The district contains four museums, including the State Symbols Museum and History Museum, which present collections about regional traditions and national heritage.

The district operates under the postal code AZ 6000 and includes 20 main villages, with Tovuz city serving as the administrative center.

Archaeological excavations at Goytepe reveal continuous human settlement patterns from the Neolithic period, with artifacts indicating early wine production before the 7th century.
