The second administrative district in Meißen was made up of the court offices of Großenhain, Lommatzsch, Meißen, Nossen and Riesa. The court offices of Gottleuba, Hohnstein, Königstein, Lauenstein, Neustadt, Pirna, Schandau, Sebnitz and Stolpen formed the third administrative district of Pirna. The fourth district of Freiberg, which is part of the governing body, was made up of the districts of Altenberg, Brand, Frauenstein, Freiberg, Sayda and Tharandt.
Administrative reform 1873/74
In 1874 the district directorates, (old) administrative authorities and court offices (part of internal administration) were dissolved. In place of the Dresden district directorate, the Dresden district administration took over. Subordinate to it were the newly formed Amtshauptmannschaften (districts from 1939):
- Administrative Authority Dippoldiswalde ,
- Amtshauptmannschaft Dresden (temporarily Dresden-Altstadt and Dresden-Neustadt),
- Administrative Authority Freiberg ,
- Administrative Authority Grossenhain ,
- Meißen official administration
- Pirna Authority .
The independent cities of Dresden , Freiberg (from 1915), Freital (from 1924), Meißen (from 1915), Pirna (from 1924), Radebeul (from 1935) and Riesa (from 1924) existed.
Administrative reform in 1932
On July 1, 1932, the Dresden District Main Team and the Bautzen District Main Team were merged into one Main District Team. As a result, the Dresden-Bautzen district administration expanded to include the administrative authorities Bautzen , Kamenz , Löbau , Zittau and the independent cities of Bautzen and Zittau .
Administrative district
In 1939, the uniform imperial designation of administrative district was introduced and the district main team was renamed Dresden-Bautzen administrative district. In 1943 this structure was dissolved.
