Boundaries
1993–1995: Leninsky District, Tula[3]
The constituency covered the entirety of the oblast capital Tula and the suburban Leninsky District.
1995–2007: Tula[4][5]
After the 1995 redistricting the constituency retained only Tula, losing Leninsky District to Shchyokino constituency. This seat also subsequently became completely surrounded by the Shchyokino constituency.
2016–present: Arsenyevsky District, Belyovsky District, Bogoroditsky District, Chernsky District, Dubensky District, Kamensky District, Kireyevsky District, Kurkinsky District, Odoyevsky District, Plavsky District, Shchyokinsky District, Slavny, Suvorovsky District, Tula (Privokzalny, Sovetsky, Tsentralny), Tyoplo-Ogaryovsky District, Volovsky District, Yefremov[6][7]
The constituency was re-created for the 2016 election and retained only southern half of Tula, losing the northern half to Novomoskovsk constituency. This seat instead gained almost all of the dissolved Shchyokino constituency in southern Tula Oblast as well as rural Dubensky District from Novomoskovsk constituency.
