The Canton of Vorsfelde existed from 1807 to 1813 in the Helmstedt district in the Oker department in the Kingdom of Westphalia and was formed by the Royal Decree of December 24, 1807. The French occupying power had previously dissolved the Vorsfelde office and incorporated it into the canton, which also included the previously Prussian and Magdeburg towns of Wolfsburg and Heßlingen.
