The Burgdorf District (not to be confused with the Burgdorf District in Switzerland) is a former district (Landkreis) in Germany. It existed from 1885 to 1974, when it was absorbed in the Hanover District and subsequently in the Hanover Region. Its area corresponds roughly to the present day municipalities of Wedemark, Isernhagen, Burgwedel, Burgdorf, Uetze, Lehrte and Sehnde.
The district comprised the localities of the present day cities
and the present-day municipalities
as well as Oelerse (today part of Edemissen), Harber (today part of Hohenhameln), Landwehr and Röhrse (today part of Peine) as well as Isernhagen-Süd (today part of Hannover).
