Offices in Westphalia
From 1843 to 1974 there were offices in Westphalia . Westphalia initially belonged to Prussia as a province . In 1946 it formed the state of North Rhine-Westphalia together with the north of the former Prussian Rhine province . In 1947 the former land of Lippe was added.
Establishment of offices
The Prussian rural community order for the province of Westphalia from 1841 replaced the cantons introduced during the French era (1806 to 1813) with offices with effect from 1843 .
Offices as administrative level
Offices were the administrative authority below the district level and above the municipality level . They were initially headed by officials and later by mayors . After the Second World War, the heads of the offices were called Amtsdirektoren .
From 1874 the official areas were designated as administrative districts .
