The Chechelivskyi District ({{Langx|uk|Чечелівський район}}) is an urban district of the city of Dnipro, in southern Ukraine.{{cite web|title=Krasnohvardiiskyi Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, City of Dnipropetrovsk|url=http://w1.c1.rada.gov.ua/pls/z7502/A005?rdat1=05.02.2015&rf7571=6884|website=Regions of Ukraine and their Structure|publisher=Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine|accessdate=4 February 2015|language=Ukrainian|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151209071728/http://w1.c1.rada.gov.ua/pls/z7502/A005?rdat1=05.02.2015&rf7571=6884#|archive-date=2015-12-09|url-status=dead}} It is located in the city's center on the southwestern outskirts and the right-bank of the Dnieper River.
History
According to archeological finds, in the Paleolithic period (7—3 thousand Anno Domini) human settlements appear near the {{ill|Aptekarska brook|uk|Аптекарська балка (Дніпро)}} in what is now the Chechelivskyi District.{{cite web |author=Yuri Pakhomenkov|title=History of Nadporizhe - Prydniprovye (from the first people to the 17th century)|url=https://gorod.dp.ua/history/article_ua.php?article=2|website=gorod.dp.ua|date=2000|access-date=16 October 2022|lang=Ukrainian}}
The district was known as the 5th court district of Yekaterinoslav (Dnipro's former name) when it was first created on 1 December 1897. After the 1905 revolution, the district was renamed into the Zavodskyi District and in 1917 the Brianskyi District after the same Briansk Factory (today, Petrovsky Metallurgical Factory).
From 1920 to 1923 the district was named the Fabrychno-Chechelivskyi District. In 1923 its name was changed again, this time to the Chechelivskyi District. In 1925 it became known as the Krasnohvardiiskyi District.
In 1963 the eastern portions of the district were annexed to the newly formed Zhovtnevyi District. In 1973 some additional territories of the Zhovtnevyi and Krasnohvardiiskyi districts were also annexed to the newly formed Babushkinskyi District.
On 26 November, 2015, according to the order of Acting Mayor, to comply with decommunization, Krasnohvardiiskyi District was renamed to Chechelivskyi District.{{cite web |url=https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5q7xnrIx13gNnQtQml2SEEta3c/view |title=SolutDocument46336.pdf - Google Drive |website=drive.google.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151208235844/https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5q7xnrIx13gNnQtQml2SEEta3c/view |archive-date=2015-12-08}} {{in lang|uk}} [http://www.radiosvoboda.mobi/a/27401886.html Street signs were Dnipropetrovsk nedekomunizovanymy], Radio Svoboda (2 December 2015){{cite web|title=In Dnipropetrovsk, the main highways and five districts of the city were renamed|url=https://dnipro.depo.ua/ukr/dnipro/u-dnipropetrovsku-pereymenuvali-osnovni-magistrali-ta-27112015125000|publisher=depo.ua|accessdate=27 November 2015|language=Ukrainian}} It is now named after {{ill|Dmytro Chechel|uk|Чечель Дмитро Васильович}}, the commanding officer of the Baturyn garrison during the reign of Ivan Mazepa as Hetman of Zaporizhian Host.{{cite web|title=Why and how the districts of Dnipro were renamed: interesting facts|url=https://dniprograd.org/2016/09/08/chomu-i-yak-pereymenuvali-rayoni-dnipra-tsikavi-fakti_49182|website=Dniprograd.org|publisher=|accessdate=9 August 2016|language=Ukrainian}}
