Historical sequence

The law came into being with the substantial participation of the Düsseldorf District President Karl Bergemann .

This was preceded in 1927 by an amendment to the law by the Prussian state parliament , which allowed the boundaries of cities and districts to be changed "for reasons of public welfare" .

The Prussian state parliament approved the restructuring law on July 8, 1929. Resistance came primarily from the DNVP and the DVP .

After it was passed, the Prussian State Court was appealed against the restructuring law, which declared it lawful on July 23, 1929

Repealed Regulations

  • On August 1, 1933, the Gladbach-Rheydt urban district was dissolved and divided between the two urban districts of M. Gladbach and Rheydt (law on the division of the municipality of Gladbach-Rheydt). This happened at the instigation of the Reich Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels , who came from Rheydt and who subsequently became an honorary citizen of Rheydt.

In several cases, legally defined double names were subsequently changed:

  • On January 25, 1930, the Barmen-Elberfeld district was renamed Wuppertal .
  • On April 1, 1935, the urban district of Duisburg-Hamborn was renamed Duisburg .
  • On April 25, 1940, the district of Krefeld-Uerdingen a. Renamed in Krefeld . This was accompanied by the loss of the special regulations for the city areas of Krefeld and Uerdingen. In terms of local law, this urban district was adapted to the other urban districts in Prussia.
