The district office of Neckarbischofsheim in the Grand Duchy of Baden existed from 1810 to 1864 as a sovereign office . The district office was assigned to the Neckar District ( Mannheim ) until 1832 and then until its dissolution to the Lower Rhine District (Mannheim) within the Baden administration.

history

Before the end of the Old Kingdom , Württemberg and from December 1805 also Baden began to take possession of the knightly places adjacent to their territories . The Rhine Confederation Act subsequently provided the legitimation for this approach, but refrained from mentioning the affected locations in detail. Only through a state treaty concluded between Baden and Württemberg in November 1806 was the border in Kraichgau fixed. Bischofsheim came to the Grand Duchy of Baden, whereupon the name of the city was changed to Neckarbischofsheim because there were two other places with the name Bischofsheim within the Grand Duchy. First, the city was assigned to the Waibstadt Oberamt, which was newly formed in 1807, mainly from former knightly places . In 1810 it became the official seat of the newly created Neckarbischofsheim district office. Since the owners of the manors remained as landlords with the local police and civil jurisdiction of the first instance, the district office initially only fulfilled the tasks of a deanery and physics association . A reorganization of the administration abolished the rights of the landlords in 1813, so that the Neckarbischofsheim district office from then on also acted as a judicial and police authority. On this occasion, the question of the official seat - Neckarbischofsheim or Waibstadt - was raised again, but ultimately decided in favor of Neckarbischofsheim. On October 1, 1864, the district office was dissolved.

In 1813 Ehrstädt was transferred to the Sinsheim district office ; Heinsheim, Hochhausen, Kälbertshausen, Neckarmühlbach and Zimmerhof came to the 2nd Landamt Mosbach . Waibstadt , Bargen and Treschklingen were new to the Neckarbischofsheim district office . The layout of the district did not change until 1864.
