history
After the annexation of the Kingdom of Hanover in 1867 by Prussia , the Aschendorf district was formed in 1885 from the Aschendorf office and the city of Papenburg . Before 1815, the district was part of the Duchy of Arenberg-Meppen , which was created in 1803 from parts of the Lower Monastery of Münster in 1803.
By a regulation of the Prussian State Ministry of August 1, 1932, the Aschendorf and Hümmling districts were dissolved with effect from October 1, 1932 and merged into the Aschendorf-Hümmling district . The communities of Emen and Tinnen , which had belonged to the Aschendorf district up to this point , were incorporated into the Meppen district.
