The Kröben district existed from 1793 to 1807 in the Prussian province of South Prussia and from 1815 to 1887 in the south of the Prussian province of Posen . The former district area is now part of the Polish Greater Poland Voivodeship .

history

The area around the western Polish cities of Kröben and Rawitsch belonged to the Kröben district in the Prussian province of South Prussia after the Third Partition of Poland from 1793 to 1807 . Through the Peace of Tilsit , the area came to the Duchy of Warsaw in 1807 and now formed a powiat of the Posen prefecture with a sub-prefect at its head. After the Congress of Vienna on May 15, 1815, the district fell again to the Kingdom of Prussia and became part of the Poznan administrative district of the Poznan Province.

During the Prussian administrative reforms , a district reform was carried out in the Posen administrative region on January 1, 1818, in which the delimitation of the Kröben district was only slightly changed. The town of Rawitsch became the district town and seat of the district administration .

As part of the Posen Province, the Kröben district became part of the newly founded German Empire on January 18, 1871 , against which the Polish MPs protested in the new Reichstag on April 1, 1871.

On October 1, 1887, the Kröben district was dissolved. The new Rawitsch district was formed from the southern half . The new district of Gostyn was formed from the northern half, which also included the rural communities of Jawory, Strumiany and Wycisłowo, the rural communities and manor districts of Daleszyn, Dusina, Koszkowo and Ostrowo and the Jeżewo manor of the neighboring district of Schrimm to the north .
