Livoberezhnyi District ( Ukrainian: Лівобережний район), formerly known as Ordzhonikidze District, is an urban district of the city of Mariupol, Ukraine. The district was established in 1939. [1]

On 5 June 2015, the formerly separate settlement Vynohradne [ uk] was administratively merged into Livoberezhnyi District. [2] In 2016, the district was renamed to its current name to comply with decommunization laws. [3]
