history

The provinces of the People's State of Hesse in 1930

After the proclamation of the constitution of the Grand Duchy of Hesse on December 17, 1820, a comprehensive administrative reform followed on July 14, 1821 . Instead of the district bailiffs , district councils were set up.

Initially, for one year, in 1821, the Dieburg office took over the function of the Dieburg District Bailiwick. Subsequently, the Dieburg office was converted into the Dieburg district council . After another administrative reform, the district of Dieburg merged with the district of Reinheim in the new district of Dieburg in 1832 .

The Dieburg district experienced the next change in the German Revolution of 1848. During the revolution, the district was dissolved and added to the Dieburg administrative district. After the restitution in 1852, the administrative districts were repealed. A newly delimited Dieburg district was created from the district court district Umstadt and parts of the district court districts Höchst , Langen , Offenbach , Reinheim and Seligenstadt .

Together with the districts of Bensheim , Darmstadt , Erbach , Groß-Gerau , Heppenheim and Offenbach , and until 1874 with the districts of Lindenfels , Neustadt and Wimpfen , the district of Dieburg has since formed the province of Starkenburg in the Grand Duchy of Hesse and subsequently in the People's State of Hesse.

On July 1, 1874, as part of a Hessian district reform, the municipalities of Frau-Nauses , Ober-Nauses , Schloß-Nauses and Wiebelsbach from the dissolved Neustadt district were added to the Dieburg district.

During the Hessian administrative reform of November 1, 1938, the communities of Allertshofen , Brandau , Ernsthofen , Frankenhausen , Herchenrode , Hoxhohl , Lützelbach , Neunkirchen , Neutsch , Nieder-Modau , Ober-Modau , Rohrbach and Wembach moved from the Dieburg district to the Darmstadt district. The remaining communities formed the Dieburg district from then on .

The last district administrator in the Dieburg district was Dieter Stammler from Offenbach from 1934 to 1938 .
