Office Sankt Andreasberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Sankt Andreasberg office was a historical administrative area of ​​the Kingdom of Hanover .

history

Until after the Congress of Vienna, the administration of the Upper Harz was the responsibility of the mining authorities Clausthal and Zellerfeld or their superior mining authority . In 1818 the Zellerfeld Mining Authority was abolished and its district joined the Clausthal Mining Authority. In 1841 the judicial and administrative powers of the Mining and Forestry Office were transferred to the newly created Mining and City Courts in Clausthal and Zellerfeld, which were subordinate to the Justice Chancellery in Göttingen and the administrative authorities to the Mining Authority . In the course of the separation of justice and administration (1852), the St. Andreasberg office was re-established with the district of the previous Clausthal Mining and City Court. As early as 1859 it was merged with the Zellerfeld Office and the previously free city of Clausthal to form the Zellerfeld Office, with which it opened up in the Zellerfeld district in 1885 .
