history

The Delmenhorst office was founded as part of the Oldenburg administrative reform of 1814 and at that time included Delmenhorst , Hasbergen , Schönemoor and Stuhr . In 1858 the neighboring office of Ganderkesee was dissolved. His two communities Ganderkesee and Hude were incorporated into the Delmenhorst office. In 1879 the municipality of Altenesch was incorporated into the office from the dissolved office of Berne. In 1903 the city of Delmenhorst left office and became vacant. In 1933, most of the Delmenhorst office became part of the Oldenburg office, today's Oldenburg district ; only the municipality of Altenesch (today's municipality of Lemwerder ) came to the Wesermarsch office .
