geography

Districts Amt Wachsenburg

The community is located in the extreme north of the Ilm district. The north-western border is also the border between the Ilm district and the Gotha district and thus runs along Ohrdruf , Drei Gleichen and Nesse-Apfelstädt . In the north there is a long border with the independent city of Erfurt , in the east the municipality of Klettbach in the Weimarer Land district borders on Amt Wachsenburg and in the southeast and south the municipalities of Elleben , Elxleben and Alkersleben . In the south and southwest, the municipality is bounded by the district town of Arnstadt and the municipality of Geratal .

The municipality of Wachsenburg consists of the districts Bechstedt-Wagd , Bittstädt , Eischleben , Haarhausen , Holzhausen , Ichtershausen , Kirchheim , Rehestädt , Rockhausen , Röhrensee , Sülzenbrücken , Thörey and Werningsleben . The administrative seat of the municipality is Ichtershausen.

history

The places of the parish had long historical and economic relations with each other. In the 19th century, the Wachsenburg community and the community of Ichtershausen belonged to the office of Ichtershausen and Wachsenburg of the Duchy of Saxe-Gotha and Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, respectively . In the GDR they belonged to the Ichtershausen community association. This cooperation was not continued after 1990. Instead, the city of Arnstadt took on the role of a fulfilling community for the Wachsenburg community from October 18, 1996.

On November 10, 2011, the municipal council of the Wachsenburg municipality decided to cancel the agreement between the fulfilling municipality and the city of Arnstadt. The Arnstadt city council did not make an identical resolution. In surveys of residents in Ichtershausen and the Wachsenburg community, the majority of the residents of both communities supported the merger. In Ichtershausen, with a participation of 57.2 percent, around 95.2 percent of those surveyed voted for the community merger. In the Wachsenburg community, with a participation of 60.5 percent, around 94.3 percent of those questioned were in favor of integration. In addition, the city of Arnstadt had carried out a public survey by November 1, 2011. With a participation of 39 percent, 87 percent of the participants were in favor of the city merging with the Ichtershausen community and the Wachsenburg community in the event of a future municipal reform in Thuringia.

After the approval of the Interior Committee of the Thuringian State Parliament , the State Parliament approved the incorporation on November 22, 2012.

On December 31, 2012, the Wachsenburg community was incorporated into the Ichtershausen community and the extended community was renamed the Wachsenburg district. In Thuringia, however, the term office does not describe an office in the sense of municipal law.

On January 1, 2019, the communities of Kirchheim and Rockhausen were spun off from the Riechheimer Berg administrative community . Kirchheim was incorporated into the Wachsenburg district. For Rockhausen, Amt Wachsenburg became a fulfilling municipality before Rockhausen was incorporated into it on December 31, 2019.

Population development

The population of the districts remained fairly constant for a long time, with the exception of Ichtershausen, which turned into an industrial location at the end of the 19th and 20th centuries and therefore had a relatively strong population growth. After 1990, a strong wave of suburbanization from Erfurt and Arnstadt reached many districts, so that the number of inhabitants rose. Since this wave subsided around 2000, the population has fallen slightly, although the demographic development is somewhat less dramatic than in many other rural communities in Thuringia.
