Nigrita (Greek: Νιγρίτα) is a city and a municipality in the Serres regional unit, Macedonia, Greece.

[3] It is situated in the wide plain south of the river Strymonas, at the northern foot of the Kerdylio mountains, in the southern part of the Serres regional unit.

One of them was perhaps the site of the ancient city Bisaltia, capital of the Bisaltae, which is known by Stephanus of Byzantium.

[4] In the Ottoman tahrir defter (number 7) of 1478 (Hijri 883),[5] the settlement is recorded as a village with the name Nigrita, within the kaza of Siroz.

[6] At the beginning of the 19th century, it was a prosperous town where cotton, silver and copper were processed.
