The Municipality of Macau (Portuguese: Concelho de Macau) was one of the two municipalities (concelhos) of Macau, along with the Municipality of Ilhas.

Its organs, the Municipal Council of Macau (Câmara Municipal de Macau) and the Municipal Assembly of Macau (Assembleia Municipal de Macau), had been abolished. The law provided for their dissolution (dissolução) became effective on 31 December 2001. The law also provided for the "extinction" (extinção) of the provisional municipalities (municípios provisórios) but had not mentioned anything about the concelhos.
