Population development

history

Following the dissolution of the manorial courts as well as the village and court market courts, an independent district court was founded in Grein in 1850, but it was incorporated into the newly created district office in Perg as a court office in 1853. Since this was not constitutional, the court office was dissolved in 1868 and the district court was re-established with a strict separation of powers between the judiciary and administrative authorities.

The former Grein District Court was housed in the building of the local savings bank.
