With the reorganization of the courts in the Grand Duchy of Berg , the Siegburg Peace Court was established as the court of first instance at the end of 1811. It was subordinate to the tribunal of first instance Mülheim am Rhein . Prussia took over the Bergisch courts in 1814. The previous peace courts remained, the first instance tribunals were renamed district courts . The Siegburg Peace Court was now assigned to the Mülheim am Rhein district court . In 1820 the organization of the courts was changed. The district courts have now become regional courts. The Siegburg Peace Court was subordinated to the Cologne Regional Court and, from 1850, the Bonn Regional Court . As part of the Reich Justice Laws , it was converted into the Siegburg District Court in 1879.
