Luzhsky District, Municipal district in Leningrad Oblast, Russia

The Luzhsky District encompasses 6,006 square kilometers of land in southwestern Leningrad Oblast, featuring flat terrain and numerous rivers including the Luga River system.

The district territory transitioned from Finnic peoples to Slavic settlements in the 8th century and underwent significant changes during the Livonian War and Great Northern War.

The Luzhsky District Museum in Luga preserves regional artifacts, while the wooden Chapel of Saints Peter and Paul represents traditional religious architecture.

Two major railway lines traverse the district from north to south, connecting with the M20 highway to facilitate transportation between Saint Petersburg and southern regions.

The district maintains a free-fire training range for the Russian Army and contains substantial deposits of glass sand used for industrial purposes.
