Location of the Barth office in the Vorpommern-Rügen district

The Barth office is located in the district of Vorpommern-Rügen in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Germany). In the Barth office , the ten communities of Bartelshagen II b. Barth, Divitz-Spoldershagen, Fuhlendorf, Karnin, Kenz-Küstrow, Löbnitz, Lüdershagen, Pruchten, Saal and Trinwillershagen as well as the city of Barth have come together to handle their administrative business. The administrative headquarters are in the city of Barth . On January 1, 2005, the merger of the Barth-Land office and the city of Barth, as well as the municipality of Trinwillershagen, created the new Barth office.

The official area extends south of the Barther Bodden in the hinterland of the Zingst , Darß and Fischland peninsula . The north and west of the office borders on the Barther Bodden and Saaler Bodden , the east borders on the office of Niepar and the south borders on the offices of Franzburg-Richtenberg and Ribnitz-Damgarten . There are no larger lakes in the municipality, but large parts of the office are located on the Bodden waters. The river Barthe flows through the municipality and flows into the Barther Bodden near Barth. The northern part of the office with the lagoon coast is part of the Vorpommersche Boddenlandschaft National Park . There are no noteworthy surveys in the office, as the office is almost exclusively in the lowlands of the Barthetal and Bodden hinterland. Only at Lüdershagen do some hills reach the 20 meter mark.

Economically, only agriculture and fishing play a certain role and tourism is also important. There is also a shipyard in Barth. The region is hoping for further upswing through the federal motorway 20 . The B 105 ( Rostock - Stralsund ) runs through the south of the Barth district . Barth Airport is also located near the Barth headquarters .

On January 1, 2014, the formerly independent municipality of Bartelshagen II b. Barth incorporated into the community of Saal .
