history

The area of ​​the Nassau Office of Linz was part of the Electorate of Cologne until the beginning of the 19th century and belonged to the Electoral Cologne Oberamt Linz . After the Treaty of Lunéville (1801) and the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss (1803), the area was assigned to the Principality of Nassau-Usingen and the Linz office expanded to include the Burglahr ( Lahrer Herrlichkeit ) lordship, which originally belonged to the Altenwied district .

The accession of the Prince of Nassau-Usingen to the Rhine Confederation (1806) had no direct impact on the territorial status of the Linz Office, now part of the Duchy of Nassau . On November 1, 1809 the office was assigned to the Ehrenbreitstein administrative district as part of a reorganization of the administration . Due to the resolutions at the Congress of Vienna (1815), the area was ceded to the Kingdom of Prussia and the Linz office dissolved. Under the Prussian administration, in 1816 the localities of the Erpel and Unkel parishes became the Unkel mayor and the Linz parish became the Linz mayor , and the Oberlahr parish became part of the Flammersfeld mayor . The mayors of Linz and Unkel were initially the district Linz , later the district Neuwied in Koblenz assigned and the mayor Flammersfeld the district Altenkirchen .
