History
According to archeological finds, in the Paleolithic period (7—3 thousand Anno Domini) human settlements appear on Monastyrskyi Island; which is located in Sobornyi 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}} Traces of Cimmerian settlements during the Bronze Age have been found near today's Sobornyi District's Taras Shevchenko Park.
The current district Sobornyi District was created on 16 March 1936 out of the Kirovskyi and Fabrychno-Chechelivskyi districts. In 1973, a portion of its territory was annexed to the newly created Babushkinskyi District. Before 26 November 2015 the district was named Zhovtnevyi ({{Langx|uk|Жовтневий район}}); on that day the district was renamed to comply with decommunization laws.{{in lang|uk}} [http://www.radiosvoboda.mobi/a/27401886.html Знакові вулиці Дніпропетровська залишилися недекомунізованими], 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}}
