geography

location

In terms of nature, the Dresden region extends north of the Lusatian Fault. The western Lusatian hills and mountains are located on the highlands , but a small part of the (climatically favored) Dresden Elbe valley (around Radebeul) also belongs to the Dresden region. The Radebeul area is known for the distinctive Loessnitz slopes , where wine has been cultivated for a long time. The Moritzburg small peaks landscape , which is unique in Central Europe, is also remarkable . The north and east of the district is predominantly flat, undulating agricultural land at an altitude of around 200 m. The Moritzburg pond landscape stands out from this in the northwest , an extensive forest area with numerous artificially created fish ponds.

In the north, the district covers the southern edge of the Radeburg Heath. The region is mainly used for agriculture, it is characterized by open, wide highlands with individual moist valleys and field trees. But from the area around Pulsnitz - Großröhrsdorf - Arnsdorf , the forest areas increase and you notice the transition to the western foreland of the Lusatian mountains . The largest flowing water is the Große Röder .

Neighboring areas

The district of Dresden-Land bordered clockwise in the north, beginning with the districts of Großenhain , Kamenz , Bischofswerda , Sebnitz , Pirna , Dresden , Freital and Meißen .

history

A forerunner of this circle was the Amtshauptmannschaft Dresden formed at the beginning of the 19th century , from which the city of Dresden was spun off in 1874 and from then on existed as an exemte (district-free) city. In 1939, when the German municipal code came into force, the official administration was renamed to a district and the internal administrative structures were harmonized across the whole of Germany.

From 1945 to 1950, the Dresden city area was considerably enlarged at the expense of the old district area. With the district reform on July 25, 1952, the new districts Freital (33 communities) and Dresden-Land (52 communities) were created in the area of the old district (with 88 communities), with the area around Radeburg from the district of Großenhain in favor of Dresden-Land was detached. From then on, the Dresden-Land district formed a collar circle around the city of Dresden, bordered by Dresden's west, north and east. The Dresden-Land district thus covered 357 km² and had 112,900 inhabitants.

The communities of Kleinröhrsdorf and Leppersdorf finally moved from the Altkreis to the Bischofswerda district , while Steinbach came to the Meißen district . The last two municipalities mentioned came back to the Dresden district a year ago.

The new Dresden-Land district thus consisted of the following 54 municipalities when it was founded:

the 52 municipalities of the old district of Dresden :

Old Franconia, Arnsdorf b. Dresden, Bärnsdorf, Bärwalde, Berbisdorf, Borsberg, Boxdorf, Brabschütz, Cossebaude, Cunnersdorf b. Helfenberg, Friedewald, Gohlis, Gompitz, Gönnsdorf, Großdittmannsdorf, Großerkmannsdorf, Grünberg, Hermsdorf b. Dresden, Kleinerkmannsdorf, Kleinwolmsdorf, Langebrück, Leuteritz, Liegau-Augustusbad, Lomnitz, Malschendorf, Marsdorf, Medingen, Mobschatz, Moritzburg, Niederwartha, Oberwartha, Ockerwitz, Ottendorf-Okrilla, Pappritz, Radeberg, Radebeul, Radeburg, Reichenberg, Reitzendorf, Rockau, Schönborn, Schönfeld b. Dresden, Schullwitz, Seifersdorf b. Radeberg, Ullersdorf, Unkersdorf, Volkersdorf, Wachau, Wallroda, Weißig b. Dresden, Weixdorf and Zaschendorf.

as well as 2 municipalities from the district of Pirna :

Eschdorf and Fischbach.

District of Dresden

On May 17, 1990, the Dresden-Land district was renamed the Dresden district. In the course of the Saxon district reform in 1994 , the district took legal action against the planned reorganization of the district area. However, the Saxon Higher Administrative Court rejected the lawsuit in 1995. On January 1, 1996, the district was dissolved and in parts (from west to east) the district of Meißen (until February 28, 1997 called the district of Meißen-Radebeul ), the district of Kamenz (until March 31, 1996 with the name District Westlausitz-Dresdner Land ), and assigned to the District of Saxon Switzerland . The latter part, the former community of Schönfeld-Weißig , was incorporated into the city of Dresden on January 1, 1999, as were some other communities in the former Dresden-Land district.

District court Dresden-Land

For each of the five Dresden city districts as well as the Dresden-Land district, a district court was responsible as the initial instance of ordinary jurisdiction. The Dresden District Court was superordinate to them.

In 1952, the Dresden-Land District Court took over the tasks of the Dresden , Freital , Kamenz and Meißen district courts . It existed until June 30, 1990, after which the Dresden-Mitte District Court, now the Dresden District Court , took over responsibility for all five city districts and the district and handed them over to the re-established Dresden District Court on December 31, 1992.
