Leninskyi District () is an urban district of Donetsk, Ukraine, named after a Soviet political figure Vladimir Lenin.
It was created in 1937 as the Stalino-Zavodskyi District.
On 22 February 2026, the Donetsk Oblast Military Administration renamed it to Oleksandrivskyi District () as part of the decommunization and derussification campaign. This name comes from Oleksandrivka, the first settlement on the territory of Donetsk. However, this name is only de jure used by the Ukrainian government and the renaming has not de facto taken place while Donetsk is under Russian control.
