history

District Office

The district office of Donauwörth was formed in 1862 through the merger of the regional courts of the older order Donauwörth and Monheim .

On March 20, 1871, the Wertingen District Office ceded the Druisheim community to the Donauwörth District Office.

On January 1, 1880, the seven communities Bertoldsheim , Erlbach , Hatzenhofen , Mauern , Rennertshofen , Rohrbach and Trugenhofen were separated from the Donauwörth district office and added to the Neuburg an der Donau district office. At the same time, the municipalities of Brachstadt and Oppertshofen came from the Dillingen District Office and the Nordendorf municipality from the Wertingen District Office to the Donauwörth District Office.

On January 1, 1910, the Lauterbach community was assigned to the Wertingen district office.

district

On January 1, 1939, the uniform designation Landkreis was introduced in the German Reich . This is how the district office became the district of Donauwörth.

On April 1, 1940, the district received its last valid scope, when the previously independent city of Donauwörth became part of the district. Except for these two changes, the district area remained within the framework given since January 1, 1880 until 1972.

On July 1st, 1972 the district of Donauwörth was dissolved:
