District court building from 1936

The Fallersleben District Court was a court of ordinary jurisdiction in what is now the Fallersleben district of Wolfsburg .

After the revolution of 1848 was the Kingdom of Hanover , the jurisdiction of the administration separated and the patrimonial abolished. The district court was then founded with the ordinance of August 7, 1852 regarding the formation of the district courts and lower administrative authorities as a royal Hanover district court. It included the Fallersleben office . The district court was subordinate to the higher court of Celle . With the annexation of Hanover by Prussia , it became a Prussian district court in the province of Hanover and was there subordinate to the Hildesheim district court .

After the district court had its seat in a half-timbered building next to Fallersleben Castle , the topping-out ceremony for a new building, which was occupied in August 1936 , took place in 1935 .

In 1955 the Wolfsburg District Court was founded as a branch of AG Fallersleben. On January 1, 1974, the Fallersleben District Court was closed because Fallersleben had meanwhile been incorporated into the city of Wolfsburg.
