Littenseradiel (West Frisian) is a former municipality in the northern Netherlands, known in Dutch as Littenseradeel (pronounced [ˈlɪtə(n)səraːˌdeːl] ). The municipality was formed on 1 January 1984 by a merger of the former municipalities Baarderadeel and Hennaarderadeel. On 1 January 2018, the municipality was dissolved and its territory was split between three other municipalities: Waadhoeke, which was established that day, Leeuwarden and Súdwest-Fryslân.
