history

In order to better represent its own interests, on February 25, 1912, 56 communities in the Upper Bavarian Kolbermoor came together to form the " Association of rural communities of the Kingdom of Bavaria ". In 1914, the association had almost half of the 7,940 rural communities in Bavaria as members.

After the overthrow of the monarchy in 1918, the Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior recognized the association on January 11, 1919 as a common interest group for the Bavarian rural communities.

In the context of the "Gleichschaltung", the association of rural communities was dissolved after the National Socialist seizure of power by the "Law on the German Community Day " of December 15, 1933 on May 1, 1934 and transferred to the "Bavarian State Office of the German Community Day", which was a forced union of all German communities and community associations was. This communal unit organization was largely subject to Nazi supervision.

The re-establishment of the association of rural communities after the Second World War took place in 1947, whereby the statutes came into force in 1948. After the adoption of the Bavarian Municipal Code on June 12, 1954, the association was awarded the status of a public corporation by the Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior as the “ Bavarian Municipal Day”.
