history

Since the receipt of the Weichbildrecht in 1383, Walsrode received jurisdiction for its area. However, the city and monastery were only allowed to exercise the so-called lower jurisdiction . Up to the 19th century there was a division into bailiwicks and offices. In the area of ​​the former Fallingbostel district , the offices of Essel , Ahlden , Rethem and Fallingbostel and the Walsrode monastery office were established. But court days were also held in Dorfmark , Ostenholz and Kirchboitzen . There were patrimonial courts in Altenwahlingen and in Stellichte .

On October 1, 1852, the Courts Constitution Act came into effect and brought about a fundamental change in the history of the judiciary. For the first time, a separation between justice and administration was prescribed. In the old district of Fallingbostel, district courts were set up in Ahlden, Rethem, Fallingbostel and Walsrode.

The Walsrode district court initially comprised the municipalities of the Fallingbostel district, the Walsrode district voigtei, which are not assigned to the Fallingbostel district court , the city of Walsrode and, from the Rethem district, the communities of Benzen , Borg with West-Cordingen, Ebbingen , Fulde with Nünningen and Gakenhof, Griemen with Kettenburg and Fallbeck, Hünzingen , Idsingen , Sieverdingen , Stellichte , West- Ahrsen with West- Jarlingen , (courts Cordingen and Stellichte). 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 .

In 1859 the district courts in Fallingbostel and Rethem were dissolved and the jurisdiction of the courts in Ahlden and Walsrode were subordinated. In 1852 mayor and city judge Wilhelm Ludwig Barth gave up his office to become the first magistrate in Walsrode.

After the Second World War , the jurisdiction was temporarily idle, so the Walsrode District Court was closed from April to December 1945.

The district court of Ahlden was dissolved in 1973 and subordinated to the district court district of Walsrode. Walsrode became a family court in 1977.

In 1999 the Walsroder district court was given responsibility for insolvency proceedings of the Rotenburg district court (Wümme) . In 2002, the competences of the commercial register and the cooperative register of the district court districts of Rotenburg (Wümme) and Nienburg (Weser) were transferred to the district court of Walsrode. In 2005 Walsrode became the central register court for the district court district of Verden

building

After the district court was founded in 1852, rooms in the old town hall (later the old district court) at Langen Strasse 18 served as the seat. For decades, the district court shared the rooms with the city administration. In 1904 the city administration moved to the newly built town hall (today's Old Town Hall) so that the district court had the building to itself. In 1977 a first branch office was opened at Langen Strasse 20, followed by another in 1982 at Langen Strasse 29. In 1987 the district court moved completely to the new district court building at Langen Strasse 29-33. In 2006 the building was expanded again.
