Office of Hoya

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The office of Hoya was a historical administrative area of ​​the County of Hoya , later of the Principality of Lüneburg , the Kingdom of Hanover and the Prussian Province of Hanover with its seat in Hoya .

history

The castle Hoya is first mentioned in 1233. The builder was probably the noble family, which then named itself after her. The office , which developed around the residence of what would later become the county, fell to the Principality of Lüneburg when the count's house went out in 1582. After the Franco-Westphalian Intermezzo, it was restored to its old size. In 1827 the shares of the villages Alt Holtum and Varste, which had been administered by the Hoya Office, were added to the West Thedinghausen Office. In 1852 the Office Hoya was divided into the smaller Office Hoya and the Office Martfeld . The municipality of Wöpse was reclassified to the Bruchhausen Office , Dienstborstel to the Nienburg Office , Diensthop and Lohof fell to the West Office . In 1859 the Martfeld Office was reunited with the Hoya Office, but without the Martfeld parish (with the communities of Kleinborstel, Hustedt, Loge, Martfeld and Tuschendorf), which was incorporated into the Bruchhausen Office. Since 1867 the offices of Hoya, Syke and Bruchhausen formed the (tax) district of Hoya. When the district constitution was introduced in 1885, the offices of Hoya and Bruchhausen were merged to form the district of Hoya .
