history
With the "law concerning the formation of new administrative districts and the introduction of district councils" of October 31, 1848 and the corresponding ordinance of December 22, 1848, which came into effect on February 1, 1849, the previous four provinces were dissolved and nine districts established . Two districts were formed from the previous province of Upper Hesse , including the district of Marburg. This change was a consequence of the March Revolution .
The new administrative structure was dissolved shortly after the reaction prevailed. With the ordinance and the “provisional” “law concerning the reshuffle of the internal state administration and the executive power of the administrative authorities and the district councils” of July 7, 1851, the old order was restored.
