The District Council of Woolundunga was a local government area in South Australia from 1888 until 1933.

It was created on 5 January 1888 as the District Council of Davenport under the provisions of the District Councils Act 1887,[1] but was renamed Woolundunga on 8 June 1893 to avoid confusion with the adjacent Corporate Town of Davenport, a separate municipality.

[4] The council constructed purpose-built chambers at Stirling North in 1894, and operated out of them for the remainder of their existence.

[5][6] At its creation, the council area was more than 1,000 km2 (400 sq mi), including all the formerly unincorporated parts of the County of Newcastle[1] west of the Dutchmans Range and Middle Range ridge line (Kanyaka council west border) as well as the Hundred of Winninowie and parts of the hundreds of Davenport and Woolundunga remaining unincorporated in the County of Frome.

[1] By 1923, the council controlled an area of approximately 212,000 acres in 1923, with 32 miles of main roads.
