— cities Brody Raion () was a raion (district) of Lviv Oblast in western Ukraine. Its administrative center was Brody. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of an administrative reform in Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Lviv Oblast to seven. The area of Brody Raion was merged into Zolochiv Raion. The last estimate of the population of the raion was
The raion was located at the easternmost portion of Lviv Oblast, bordering Rivne and Ternopil Oblasts to its east, Volyn Oblast to the north, Radekhiv Raion to the northwest, Busk Raion to the west, and Zolochiv Raion to the southwest.
Historically, the district (county) had been known as a border checkpoint between the Austria-Hungary Empire and the Russian Empire. As a county (powiat), it was established in 1866 as part of the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria. After World War I, the area became part of the Second Polish Republic's Tarnopol Voivodeship. During the invasion of Soviet forces at the beginning of World War II, the district was established by the Soviet administration.
The raion had a city administrative area, a "town with three other villages" administrative area and 23 rural councils which were formed out of the rest of the 73 villages. Some councils included up to 10 villages (Ponykva), while some consisted only of a pair of villages.
Subdivisions
At the time of its disestablishment, the raion consisted of three hromadas:
- Brody urban hromada with the administration in Brody;
- Pidkamin settlement hromada with the administration in the urban-type settlement of Pidkamin;
- Zabolottsi rural hromada with the administration in the selo of Zabolottsi.
