Cameral rule Laufenburg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The camera rule Laufenburg was a territory in the Holy Roman Empire . It was in front of Austria , which belonged to the territory of the Habsburgs .

history

The camera rule came into being in the 15th century and belonged to the Breisgau estates . It was administered neither by the nobility nor by prelates, but directly by the court chamber . This was initially in Innsbruck (with a subsidiary in Ensisheim ), after 1648 in Freiburg im Breisgau . After the reorganization of Upper Austria as a separate province in 1752, the control of the camera was subordinate to the Oberamt Breisgau .

The administrative seat was Laufenburg , one of the four forest towns on the Upper Rhine . However, the city was not part of the camera rule, but administered itself and was an independent member of the estates. There was no further structure within the control of the camera.

With the conquest of the area by the French in 1797, camera rule virtually ceased to exist. From a legal point of view, it ended in 1802 with the establishment of the canton of Fricktal , which was assigned to the canton of Aargau a year later by Napoleon Bonaparte .
