Kuçovë District (Albanian: Rrethi i Kuçovës) was one of the 36 districts of Albania, which were dissolved in July 2000 and replaced by 12 counties.

It had a population of 35,571 in 2001, and an area of 112 km2 (43 sq mi), making it the smallest district of Albania.

The district consisted of the following municipalities:[2] Note: - urban municipalities in bold Kuçovë is one of the main centres of the Albanian oil industry,[citation needed] and the town of Kuçovë was built with Soviet assistance in the 1950s.

It is of interest to students of communist architecture and planning,[citation needed] although much of the oil infrastructure predates the communist period and was installed by the Italians during the Zogist period.

Kuçovë was formerly a closed military district, and the air base in Kuçovë remains one of the largest in Albania, and aged MiG fighters from the 1950s could be seen flying on a regular basis until they were finally grounded in late 2005.
