The official seat of the court was an outbuilding of Schloss Friedrichsburg . In the Weimar Republic the regional court was moved to Weiden, Vohenstrauss became the seat of a local court.

In 1990 the district court was moved to a building on Pfarrgasse. The old district court has been unused since then.
