Leitersburg Historic District is a national historic district at Leitersburg, Washington County, Maryland, United States. The district is centered on this early-19th century village. The village square retains three original early 19th century brick buildings, a tavern, general store, and dwelling; as well as a late-19th century wooden frame grocery store / meeting hall. Most of the original 30 log buildings, somewhat altered, remain. The village contains a cohesive collection of architectural resources reflecting a wide variety of vernacular types and popular expressions dating from the early 19th century through the early 20th century.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.[1]
