On July 25, 1952, there was another comprehensive administrative reform in the GDR , in which, among other things, the states lost their importance and new districts were formed. The new Stollberg district was formed from parts of the Aue, Chemnitz and Zwickau districts and was assigned to the newly formed Chemnitz district (from 1953 district Karl-Marx-Stadt). The district seat was in the city of Stollberg . The Stollberg district was one of the most densely populated districts in the GDR.
