history
The Prussian administrative area of Ansbach-Bayreuth was formed in 1792 after Karl Alexander, the last Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach, also known as the Principality of Ansbach , who remained childless and who had also ruled the Principality of Bayreuth since 1769 , in December 1791 in return for an annuity annually 300,000 guilders had renounced his rule and had ceded his principalities to the Kingdom of Prussia .
On July 3, 1795, the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm II issued the “Kgl. Prussian patent for the organization of the state colleges and improvement of the judiciary in the Franconian principalities of Ansbach and Bayreuth ”. The Gunzenhausen district was formed. At the same time, the separation of powers was introduced through the separation of administration and justice.
With the patent of the Prussian King dated November 19, 1795 and the instructions for all city courts, judicial offices and patrimonial courts of the Principality of Ansbach dated June 11, 1797, the regulations were specified and the judicial offices established. In the Gunzenhausen district there were the judicial offices Gunzenhausen , Roth and Stauf as well as the city court Gunzenhausen and the chamber offices Gunzenhausen, Roth and Stauf. 1803 came eichstättischen Pflegämter Abenberg , Pleinfeld-sand sea and Wernfels cleavage added.
On December 15, 1805, the Principality of Ansbach fell to France in exchange for the Electorate of Hanover and passed to the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1806 . Bavaria introduced a new administrative structure. From the Gunzenhausen district, the districts known as the “ district court ” were formed, all of which belonged to the newly formed Rezatkreis (which later became Middle Franconia ) of the Kingdom of Bavaria.
