Saldus district
Saldus district was a former administrative region in western Latvia, in the Courland area. It covered about 2,182 square kilometers and had around 36,324 residents. It was created in 1949 during Soviet rule and was previously part of Kuldīga County. In 2009, the district was dissolved and split into Brocēni Municipality and Saldus Municipality, and in 2021 these two merged again into a new Saldus Municipality. The area hosted the Zvērā rock festival near Lašupe in Lutriņi Parish.
