Plön District, Rural district in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.

The district extends across 1,082 square kilometers of terrain, featuring 80 lakes and 50 kilometers of Baltic Sea coastline in northern Germany.

Established in 1867, the district expanded in 1932 by incorporating sections of the former Bordesholm district while losing some areas to the city of Kiel.

The district maintains three independent towns - Plön, Preetz, and Schwentinental - each contributing to the local governance through specific administrative structures.

The district administration center operates from the city of Plön, serving a population of 131,266 residents with essential government services.

The district contains the Großer Plöner See, measuring 29 square kilometers, which stands as the largest lake in the state of Schleswig-Holstein.
