Kreishauptmannschaft Leipzig was a Kreishauptmannschaft or administrative district in the Kingdom of Saxony.
Succeeding the Leipziger Kreis of the Electorate of Saxony, it was founded in 1835 and continued under the Free State of Saxony until being renamed the 'Regierungsbezirk Leipzig' in 1939, headed by Erich Teichmann (1882-?)
The Kreishauptmannschaft system was abolished in 1943.
It was subdivided into the followed Amtshauptmannschaften (known after 1939 as Landkreise): In 1924 Döbeln, Mittweida and Wurzen were also split off from their Amtshauptmannschaften as district-free cities.
