Porkhovsky District, Municipal district in Pskov Oblast, Russia

The district spans 3,190 square kilometers in central Pskov Oblast, featuring the Shelon River and numerous lakes including Radilovskoye and Luchno.

The territory became part of Pskov Oblast in 1944 after its liberation from German occupation during World War II, following transfers between different governorates.

The district maintains 24 federal heritage monuments and 115 local historical sites, with the Porkhov Fortress serving as a central architectural landmark.

Transportation networks include a railway connecting Bologoye and Pskov, while agricultural activities focus on dairy production, meat processing, and crop cultivation.

The Kholomki village contains a neoclassical manor that functioned as a gathering place for artists and writers in the early 1900s.
