Mogilno district
The district of Mogilno was a Prussian district that existed between 1818 and 1919 in the administrative district of Bromberg in the province of Posen . The former district area is now part of the Polish Voivodeships of Kuyavian-Pomeranian and Greater Poland .
history
After the first partition of Poland from 1772 to 1807, the area around the city of Mogilno belonged to the Netzedistrikt in the Prussian province of West Prussia . The south of the district around the city of Trzemeszno has belonged to the Prussian province of South Prussia since the Second Partition of Poland from 1793 to 1807 . Through the Peace of Tilsit , the area came to the Duchy of Warsaw in 1807 , but after the Congress of Vienna on May 15, 1815 it fell again to the Kingdom of Prussia and was assigned to the administrative district of Bromberg in the province of Posen .
In the course of a district reform in the district of Bromberg, the new district of Mogilno was formed on January 1, 1818 from parts of the existing districts of Gnesen , Inowrazlaw and Wongrowitz . In detail came to Mogilno County
- from the district of Inowrazlaw the cities Gembitz , Kwieczewo, Mogilno , Pakosch and Wilatowen with their surrounding area
- from the district of Wongrowitz the town of Rogowo and its surroundings as well
- the district Gniezno city Trzemeszno .
The town of Mogilno became the seat of the District Office .
As part of the province of Poznan , the Mogilno district also became part of the newly founded German Empire on January 18, 1871 , against which the Polish deputies protested in the new Reichstag on April 1, 1871.
During a major district reform in the district of Bromberg on October 1, 1887, the district of Mogilno ceded the town of Rogowo , the Rogowo police district and the rural communities of Friedrichswalde, Klein Laski and Piastowo to the new district of Znin .
On December 27, 1918, the Wielkopolska uprising of the Polish majority against German rule began in the province of Posen , and by December 31, 1918, the district town of Mogilno was under Polish control. On February 16, 1919, an armistice ended the Polish-German fighting, and on June 28, 1919, the German government officially ceded the Mogilno district to the newly founded Poland with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles .
