Office Uchte

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Amt Uchte was a historical administrative area of ​​the County of Hoya , later the Landgraviate of Hessen-Kassel and the Kingdom of Hanover or the Prussian Province of Hanover with its seat in Uchte .

history

The office arose from the accessories of the Uchte border fortress built around 1295 against the Minden monastery . The claims to the supreme sovereignty fell through the recess of Landgrave Philipp von Hessen in 1527, so that the office was incorporated into the Landgraviate of Hesse after the Hoya Count's House had expired in 1582 and the Counts of Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Limburg were given fiefdoms. After their extinction (1700), Hesse took the office into its own administration. In 1807 it fell under Franco-Westphalian rule. After the Congress of Vienna (patent from February 4, 1816) it came to Hanover. In 1859 the Diepenau office was added to the Uchte office. From 1867 the offices of Uchte, Nienburg and Stolzenau as well as the non-official city of Nienburg / Weser formed the (tax) district of Nienburg. It was repealed when the district constitution was introduced in 1885. The larger part came to the Stolzenau district , a smaller part to the Sulingen district .

scope

When it was abolished (1885), the office comprised the following municipalities:
