Map of the Württemberg upper offices, as of 1926

The Stuttgart District Office was an administrative district in Württemberg (on attached map # 50) , which was renamed District Stuttgart Office in 1934 and dissolved in 1938. The seat of the administration was the capital and residence city of Stuttgart , which however no longer belonged to the office since 1699. For general comments on the Württemberg upper offices, see Oberamt (Württemberg) .

geography

The Oberamt, located in the center of Württemberg and surrounding the city of Stuttgart on three sides, extended from Feuerbach in the north to Waldenbuch in the south. With the Glemswald , the western Filder Plain and the eastern part of the Schönbuch , the area played a part in several natural areas that drain to the Neckar via the Glems , Feuerbach , Körsch and Aich rivers.

In 1900 the district covered an area of ​​206 km² and had 50,500 inhabitants. The borders and thus the area changed several times in the course of history. In the 20th century, on the one hand, municipalities were incorporated into the city of Stuttgart from the Oberamt, on the other hand, some places were added from the dissolved Oberamt Cannstatt in 1923, see below .

The Stuttgart District Office was bordered by the Ludwigsburg Upper Office in the north, the Cannstatt Upper Office and the City of Stuttgart in the northeast, the Esslingen Office in the east, the Nürtingen and Tübingen Office in the south and the Böblingen and Leonberg Office in the west .

history

Amtsoberamt Stuttgart, territorial status 1813, with the previous rule boundaries

Stuttgart, which became part of Württemberg in 1247 and subsequently expanded into a royal seat, was the administrative center for the surrounding area as early as the 13th century. The Stuttgart office initially only included the city itself, the associated hamlets of Heslach, Böhmisreute (later removed), Berg and Gablenberg and the village of Gaisburg. The office was gradually enlarged through the incorporation of newly acquired places, so that at the beginning of the 16th century it extended over part of the Filder and reached Schönbuch with the town of Waldenbuch and the “Leinfelder Ämtlein”. Oberesslingen and (only partially Württemberg) Plochingen were located as exclaves outside of the otherwise closed district. Later, Untersielmingen with Harthausen (1554) and the area of ​​the provost's Nellingen (1649, already under the Württemberg umbrella bailiff) were added.

In 1699, Duke Eberhard Ludwig separated the city ​​and the Stuttgart office. The Rotebühlstraße 29 building was set up as the administrative headquarters for the office, which had its own bailiff and its own clerk. However, it was not until 1759 that there was a separate official office; since then, the terms Stadtoberamt for the city authority and Amtsoberamt for the previous Stuttgart office have been in use. Nevertheless, certain activities remained under one management for both administrative districts, such as medicine and church affairs.

After there had been no area changes in the 18th century - apart from the fact that Feuerbach was temporarily part of the Cannstatt Office from 1718 to 1739 - the Upper Office was enlarged in 1807 to include the former Esslingen hospital villages of Vaihingen and Möhringen. In return, Oberesslingen and Plochingen came to the Oberamt Esslingen in 1808, Nellingen followed in 1810. At that time, the Amtsoberamt Stuttgart was one of the first of a total of twelve districts into which the kingdom was divided in 1806. From 1810 it belonged to the Landvogtei Rothenberg and from 1818 to the Neckar district .

With the incorporation of Gaisburg into Stuttgart in 1901, the series of incorporations - initially on a voluntary basis, from 1933 under duress - began, which gradually reduced the area of ​​the Oberamts. In 1937, 18 of the former 26 parishes remained. When the district was abolished in the following year, six communities (including Möhringen and Vaihingen) came to the district of Böblingen , the rest (including Birkach and Plieningen) to the district of Esslingen . But these four municipalities mentioned were also incorporated into the city of Stuttgart in 1942.
