चंद्रपूर जिल्हा पूर्वी परंपरेनुसार चांदा म्हणून ओळखला जात होता आणि आख्यायिकेनुसार त्या ठिकाणाचे नाव लोकपुरा होते जे प्रथम इंदपूर आणि नंतर चंद्रपूर असे बदलले गेले. दरम्यान ब्रिटीश वसाहत काळात याला चांदा जिल्हा असे संबोधले जात असे, जे पुन्हा 1964 च्या सुमारास त्याचे मूळ नाव चंद्रपूर असे बदलण्यात आले. प्राचीन काळातील या प्रदेशातील इतर ठिकाणी वैरंगगड, कोसला, भद्रावती आणि मार्कंडा. हिंदू आणि बौद्ध राजांनी या भागावर बराच काळ राज्य केले असे म्हटले जाते, नंतर गोंडांनी 9व्या शतकाच्या आसपास चंद्रपूरवर राज्य करणाऱ्या दाना प्रमुखांना मागे टाकले आणि गोंड राजांनी राज्य केले. 1751 पर्यंतचा परिसर ज्यानंतर मराठ्यांचा काळ सुरू झाला. वंशाचा शेवटचा राजा रघुई भोसले 1853 मध्ये वारसाहक्काने मरण पावला आणि चंद्रपूरसह नागपूर प्रांत ब्रिटीश साम्राज्याशी जोडला गेला.
