Administrative history

Kingdom of Prussia

After the conquest of most of Silesia by Prussia in 1741, the royal cabinet order of November 25, 1741 introduced the Prussian administrative structures in Lower Silesia . This included the establishment of two war and domain chambers in Breslau and Glogau as well as their subdivision into districts and the appointment of district administrators on January 1, 1742.

In the Principality of Brieg , one of the Silesian sub-principalities, the five Prussian districts of Nimptsch, Brieg , Kreuzburg , Ohlau and Strehlen were formed from old Silesian soft images . Hans Melchior von Senitz-Rudolsdorff was appointed as the first district administrator in the Nimptsch district. The Nimptsch district was subordinate to the Wroclaw War and Domain Chamber until it was assigned to the Reichenbach district of the province of Silesia in the course of the Stein-Hardenberg reforms in 1815 . After the dissolution of the Reichenbach administrative district, the Nimptsch district was assigned to the Breslau administrative district on May 1, 1820 .

Since July 1, 1867, the district belonged to the North German Confederation and from January 1, 1871 to the German Empire . On July 21, 1875, the rural community and the manor district Kobelau were reclassified from the Nimptsch district to the Frankenstein district .

Free State of Prussia

On November 8, 1919, the province of Silesia was dissolved and the new province of Lower Silesia was formed from the administrative districts of Breslau and Liegnitz . As of September 30, 1929, all manor districts in the Nimptsch district were dissolved in accordance with developments in the rest of the Free State of Prussia and assigned to neighboring rural communities.

On October 1, 1932, the Nimptsch district was dissolved as part of austerity measures as a result of the global economic crisis :

• The communities of Bischkowitz, Groß Tinz , Grunau, Jäschwitz, Klein Tinz , Kuhnau, Naselwitz, Poppelwitz, Rankau, Stein, Strachau b. Zobten and Wilschkowitz came to the district of Breslau .
• The communities Dürr Brockuth, Dürr Hartau, Glofenau, Gollschau, Gorkau, Grögersdorf, Grün Hartau, Jakobsdorf, Kaltenhaus, Karschau, Karzen, Klein Johnsdorf, Kurtwitz, Leipitz-Sadewitz, Mallschau, Manze, Naß Brockuth, Plottnitz, Prauß, Pudigau, Reichau , Reisau, Roßwitz, Roth Neudorf, Rothschloß, Schmitzdorf, Siegroth, Silbitz, Stachau, Strachau b. Nimptsch, Tiefensee and Wonnwitz came to the Strehlen district .
• The communities Kosemitz and Zülzendorf came to the district of Frankenstein .
• The city of Nimptsch and all other communities came to the Reichenbach district (Eulengebirge) .
