The Cairo Historic District is a historic district encompassing a large section of Cairo, Illinois.

However, the city suffered severe population decline and urban decay in the 20th century, and even by the 1970s, parts of the district were described as "beginning to assume the appearance of a ghost town". The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 26, 1979.
