Leninskyi District (Ukrainian: Ленінський район) is an urban district of the city of Dnipropetrovsk, in southern Ukraine.[3] It is located in the western part of the city and borders the city of Dniprodzerzhynsk.

The district was created in 1940 out of the city's Kodatskyi and Fabrychno-Chechelivskyi districts.[1] In 2006, the old Cossack town of Taromske], which was located between Dnipropetrovsk and Dniprodzerzhynsk, was merged into the district. The district includes many other former Ukrainian towns among which are Diiivka, Novi Kodaky, Sukhachivka and others.
