Spree-Neiße District, Administrative district in Brandenburg, Germany.

The district spans 1,647.8 square kilometers between Berlin and Dresden, with the Lusatian Neisse river marking its eastern border with Poland.

The district emerged in 1993 through the consolidation of several former territories including Cottbus-Land, Forst, Guben, and Spremberg administrative regions.

The district maintains strong Sorbian and Wendish influences, with approximately ten percent of residents belonging to these traditional Slavic communities.

The region contains multiple industrial zones, including the Schwarze Pumpe estate near Spremberg, which houses a brown coal power plant.

The district's coat of arms features four distinct fields representing its predecessor territories, including a crayfish symbol for Cottbus-Land.
