history

The area around the city of Amberg has belonged to Bavaria or to the Wittelsbach lines Pfalz-Neuburg and Pfalz-Sulzbach since the 14th century . In 1803, the district courts of Amberg and Sulzbach were established in the area of ​​today's Amberg-Sulzbach district . The Amberg City Court also existed. From 1808 they all belonged to the Regenkreis (capital Straubing, from 1810 Regensburg). In 1809, Amberg became a city in the immediate vicinity. In 1838 the Vilseck district court was also formed.

On the occasion of the complete separation of jurisprudence and administration in the right bank of the Rhine region of the Kingdom of Bavaria , which came into force on July 1, 1862 , the previous Amberg City Court was combined with the previous Amberg Regional Court to form a city and regional court. The district of this court consisted of the cities of Amberg and Hirschau , the markets of Rieden and Schnaittenbach and the rural communities of Ammersricht , Ammerthal , Aschach , Diebis , Ebermannsdorf , Egelsheim , Ensdorf , Forst , Freudenberg , Gärmersdorf , Gailoh , Garsdorf , Haag , Hiltersdorf , Hohenkemnath , Karmensölden , Köfering , Kötzersricht , Lintach , Mendorferbuch , Mimbach , Pittersberg , Pursruck , Raigering , Siegenhofen , Steiningloh , Thanheim , Theuern , Traßlberg , Ullersberg , Ursensollen , Ursulapoppenricht , Weiher , Wolfsbach , Wutschdorf and Zant . The next higher instance was the District Court of Amberg . With the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act on October 1, 1879, the previous Bavarian courts were repealed. In place of the courts of appeal now occurred Courts of Appeal , in place of the district courts , the district courts and the place of the city courts, the district courts and the municipal and district courts, the district courts . The previous Amberg City and Regional Court became the current Amberg District Court, which belonged to the district of the Amberg Regional Court, which had taken the place of the District Court .

As a result of the repeal of the Kastl District Court on November 1, 1930, the Amberg court district expanded to include Allersburg , Brunn , Engelsberg , Gebertshofen , Hausen , Kastl , Lauterhofen , Pfaffenhofen , Ransbach , Thonhausen , Utzenhofen , Winkl and Wolfsfeld .

On January 1, 1970, the communities separated from the Weiden district court district ( Adlholz , Ehenfeld , Freihung , Gressenwöhr , Großschönbrunn , Hahnbach , Iber , Irlbach , Kürmreuth , Langenbruck , Massenricht , Schlicht , Seugast , Sigl , Sigras , Süß , Thansüß , Vilseck and Weißenberg ) incorporated. After the regional reform in Bavaria in 1973, the Sulzbach-Rosenberg district court was also dissolved and assigned to the Amberg district court.
