history

The modern, political districts of the Habsburg Monarchy were created around 1868 in the course of the separation of the political from the judicial administration. The Kotzman District was formed in 1868 from the Kotzmann and Zastawna ( Zastavna ) judicial districts . On October 1, 1905, the judicial district Zastawna was separated from the district Kotzmann and raised to an independent district, the district Zastawna , after which the district Kotzman consisted only of the judicial district Kotzmann.
