Jelgava District
Jelgava District (Latvian: Jelgavas rajons) was an administrative division of Latvia, located in Semigallia region, in the country's centre. It was organized into a city, two municipalities and twelve parishes, each with a local government authority. The administrative centre of the district was Jelgava. It preceded and used the symbols of the Jelgavas apriņķis of the interwar Republic of Latvia, which was created in 1920 from the previous Dobeles apriņķis.
Districts were eliminated during the administrative-territorial reform in 2009.
