The Kocheneck office was northwest of Hall; to it belonged the villages Arnsdorf , Enslingen , Kupfer , restigshausen , Obermünkheim , Wackershofen (whole), as well as Gailenkirchen , Gottwollshausen , Untermünkheim (each partly) and in the far west of the office, already at the height of the Waldenburg mountains the parish village Neunkirchen with Witzmannsweiler . In 1803 the Kocheneck office had 1,831 inhabitants.

The offices of the imperial city Hall collected the taxes of the subjects. In the individual places, other rulers such as Brandenburg-Ansbach and the House of Hohenlohe often held parts of the rights.

With the end of the imperial city of Hall, the area of ​​the Kocheneck office was incorporated into the Württemberg Oberamt Hall .
