The three districts of Luxembourg ( ; ; ) were the top-level administrative divisions of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The districts were further subdivided into cantons, which still exist:

The cantons were created on 24 February 1843. In 1857, Mersch District was created from the cantons of Mersch and Redange. However, this fourth district was abolished in 1867, when the re-arrangements of 1857 were undone.

The districts were abolished on 3 October 2015, leaving the communes, of which there are 100 as of 2025, as the sole local authorities of Luxembourg, as the 12 cantons are not administrative structures but rather territorial divisions used largely for statistical purposes.
