Northeim, Administrative district in Lower Saxony, Germany.

The Northeim district extends across 1,267 square kilometers of land between the Weserbergland mountains and includes eleven municipalities within its boundaries.

The district formation occurred in 1885 during the Prussian administrative reforms, with subsequent mergers of Northeim, Uslar, and Einbeck regions in 1974.

The district emblem displays two lions in blue and yellow colors, representing the historical connection to the former Brunswick-Lüneburg territory.

Located at coordinates 51.75°N and 9.83°E, the district maintains administrative offices in the city of Northeim for coordinating regional services.

The district contains an uninhabited forest area called Solling that spans 147.49 square kilometers within its territory.
