history

The Dreieichenhain office was initially an administrative unit of the Principality of Isenburg-Birstein. Since 1578 the Solms land law has been in effect here , the common law only if the regulations of the Solms land law did not contain any provisions for a matter. The Solms land law continued to apply when the office belonged to the Grand Duchy of Hesse in the 19th century. The Solmser land rights was until 1 January 1900 by the same across the whole German Reich current Civil Code replaced.

As the Principality of Isenburg-Birstein its sovereignty in the era of the Rhine Confederation lost to the Principality of Isenburg, which was official Dreieichenhain the Oberamt Offenbach subordinate, but remained within its borders exist. At the Congress of Vienna (1815) the Principality of Isenburg then lost its sovereignty and was mediatized in favor of Austria . Austria, Prussia and the Grand Duchy of Hesse signed a state treaty on June 30, 1816, which regulated the details. With Art. 7 No. 1 of this State Treaty, the Principality of Isenburg was largely assigned to the Grand Duchy of Hesse. This also included the Dreieichenhain office , which continued to exist, now independent again.

The Grand Duchy incorporated the area into its province of Starkenburg . The Office was one of the so-called "sovereignty landing" because the restriction was that the princes of the rank of lords remained and he continued sovereign rights in its ancestral territory administration and jurisdiction exercised. This independent sovereignty naturally interfered with the Grand Duchy's claim to the state monopoly of force .

From 1820 administrative reforms took place in the Grand Duchy of Hesse, with the district boundaries also being partially redefined. In 1821, jurisdiction and administration were separated at the lower level and all offices were dissolved. District districts were created for the administrative tasks previously performed by the offices, and district courts for the first instance jurisdiction. In the course of this measure, Geinsheim was retired from the Dreieichenhain office between 1821 and 1823 and assigned to the Dornberg district and the Groß-Gerau district court.

Because of the transverse rights of the class lords, the restructuring process lasted longer in some of the areas they governed, in the area of ​​the Dreieichenhain office until 1823. With a "Highest Resolution" of January 23, 1823 "The new division of the Princely Isenburgischen Standesbezirks" became the previous Office Dreieichenhain and the Office Offenbach for the administration of the Grand-Ducal Hessian Princely Isenburg District Offenbach , for the jurisdiction the Grand-Ducal Hessian Princely Isenburg District Court Offenbach was formed and the offices dissolved.
