Please note the note on the applicable legal version.

The law on pacified districts for federal constitutional organs of December 8, 2008 ( Federal Law Gazette I p. 2366 ) creates a spatial area for the German Bundestag , the Bundesrat and the Federal Constitutional Court , within which public meetings are generally prohibited.

The pacified district is also known as the Bannmeile or Bannkreis. The provisions of a corresponding ban miles act of August 6, 1955 ( Federal Law Gazette I p. 504 ) were already incorporated into the original version of the BefBezG of August 11, 1999 ( Federal Law Gazette I p. 1818 ).

Until the new version of the BefBezG came into force on December 11, 2008, further regulations on the ban circle were still contained in the Assembly Act . With the new version, these scattered regulations were merged.

Since the federal government lacks legislative competence for the right of assembly since the federalism reform of 2006, the legislature saw its authority in the "nature of the matter" and in Article 74, Paragraph 1, No. 1 of the Basic Law (criminal law).
