Przedmieście Świdnickie (Polish pronunciation: [pʂɛdˈmjɛɕt͡ɕɛ ɕfidˈɲit͡skjɛ], German: Schweidnitzer Vorstadt, [ˈʃvaɪ̯dnɪt͡sɐ ˈfoːɐ̯ʃtat]), lit.'Świdnica Fore-city' is a district in Wrocław located in the central part of the city. It was established in the territory of the former Old Town district.

The district owes its name to its location; it is situated in front of the former Świdnica Gate, which was within the city walls on the route from Wrocław's Market Square to Świdnica.[2]

In 1991, after reforms in the administrative division of Wrocław, Przedmieście Świdnickie became one of the city's 48 districts.[3]
