history

The Schwarzburg office was owned by the Old Black Castle as an imperial fief. From 1274 it belonged to Schwarzburg-Schwarzburg. In 1380 the Schwarzburg-Wachsenburg line received one half of the office and in 1382 also the second half. In 1450 half of the office fell to Schwarzburg-Blankenburg and the other half to Schwarzburg-Leutenberg. From 1564 Schwarzburg-Blankenburg was then in possession of the entire office. In 1574 Schwarzburg-Arnstadt and Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt received one half each. Since 1584 Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt has owned both halves.

The southern part of the office was split off on April 2, 1832 as the office of Oberweißbach . The remaining office was renamed Amt Königsee.

The Schwarzburg office was initially a court of first instance and, at the same time, a lower administrative authority. There was no separation of jurisdiction from administration . On November 1, 1844, this separation was carried out in the Koenigssee office as the only office in the principality. The Koenigssee office was now a purely judicial office, i.e. court of first instance. The administrative tasks were transferred to the newly created district office in Oberweißbach . This special arrangement ended on June 15, 1848.

The March Revolution also led in Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt to the demand for the abolition of the patrimonial courts and the separation of judiciary and administration.

On July 1, 1850, the organizational laws came into force, which fundamentally changed the judiciary. The legal basis was the law on the future administration of justice of May 1, 1850 and the law on the jurisdiction of courts and the appeal of civil disputes. The patrimonial courts were abolished and administration and jurisdiction separated.

The Königsee office was now a purely judicial office, i.e. a court of first instance with a judicial officer as a single judge. The District Court of Rudolstadt stood above it . The administrative tasks were transferred to the newly created district office in Oberweißbach .

In the reaction era , the separation of jurisdiction and administration was called into question again for reasons of cost. The ordinance on the organization of the lower state administrative authorities of May 1, 1858 repealed the district offices and assigned the administrative tasks to the judicial offices. At the request of the state parliament, the district offices were re-established by a law of February 7, 1868 and the courts were again released from administrative duties.

As part of the introduction of the Reich Justice Laws , the Königsee office was converted into the Königsee District Court .
