Hesse-Nassau was one of the 35 electoral districts (German: Wahlkreise) used to elect members to the Reichstag during the Weimar Republic. It sent members to the Reichstag in nine democratic elections between 1919 and 1933. It existed nominally in the show elections to the Nazi Reichstag until 1938.

It comprised the Prussian province of Hesse-Nassau, the Wetzlar district from the Rhine Province, and the state of Waldeck. It was constituency 19 in the numbering scheme.[1]
