The '''constituency of Creuse''' (French: ''circonscription de la Creuse'') is a French legislative constituency for the entire Creuse department. It elects one deputy to the National Assembly.
== Constituencies in the Department ==
Prior to the 2010 redistricting of French legislative constituencies, the department had two constituencies.
The first constituency consisted of the cantons of Bénévent-l'Abbaye, Bonnat, Bourganeuf, Dun-le-Palestel, Le Grand-Bourg, Guéret Nord, Guéret Sud-Est, Guéret Sud-Ouest, Saint-Vaury, and La Souterraine.
The second constituency consisted of the cantons of Ahun, Aubusson, Auzances, Bellegarde-en-Marche, Boussac, Chambon-sur-Voueize, Châtelus-Malvaleix, Chénérailles, La Courtine, Crocq, Evaux-les-Bains, Felletin, Gentioux-Pigerolles, Jarnages, Pontarion, Royère-de-Vassivière, and Saint-Sulpice-les-Champs. The second constituency's last deputy was elected at the 2007 election.
== Historic representation ==
This table shows the historic representation of Creuse's 1st constituency up to the 2012 election, which was the first election with only one constituency for the whole department.
