history

With effect from October 1, 1808, the Kingdom of Bavaria was divided into 15 (state) districts, whose names were based on rivers - following the French model : Mainkreis ( Bamberg ), Pegnitzkreis ( Nuremberg ), Rezatkreis ( Ansbach ), Nabkreis ( Amberg ) , Regenkreis ( Regensburg and Straubing ), Altmühlkreis ( Eichstätt ), Oberdonaukreis ( Ulm ), Lechkreis ( Augsburg ), Isarkreis (Munich), Salzachkreis ( Burghausen ), Unterdonaukreis ( Passau ), Illerkreis ( Kempten with Vorarlberg ), Innkreis ( Innsbruck ), Eisackkreis ( Brixen and Bozen ) and Etschkreis ( Trient ). This was determined by a very high ordinance for the territorial division of the kingdom of June 21, 1808.

The Isar District with the capital Munich initially comprised 14 regional courts and, since 1809, the district-direct cities of Munich and Landshut. In 1810 it was enlarged considerably. In 1817 it was enlarged again, but also gave some regional courts to the Oberdonaukreis . During the territorial reform initiated by King Ludwig I on November 29, 1837, the name was changed to Upper Bavaria . In the process, the borders shifted again significantly, so the city of Landshut , which was part of the Isar district until 1837, now became the district capital of Lower Bavaria .
