As part of the formation of provinces and administrative districts in Prussia, a district reform took place in the Frankfurt administrative district in 1816, in which the boundaries of the district were changed as follows:

• The city of Göritz and the places Bischofsee, Drenzig , Frauendorf, Gohlitz, Kohlow , Kunersdorf , Lässig, Leissow, Groß and Klein Lübbichow, Neuendorf, Ötscher, Groß and Klein Rade, Reipzig , Schwetig , Seefeld, Spudlow, Stenzig, Storkow, Trettin , Tschernow , Zerbow , Zohlow and Zweinert came to the new Frankfurt district .
• The city of Schermeisel and its surroundings moved from the Grand Duchy of Poznan to the Sternberg district.

The communities that the Sternberg district had given to the Frankfurt district in 1816 returned to the Sternberg district in 1836 after the Frankfurt district had been dissolved in 1826 and these communities had belonged to the Lebus district from 1826 to 1836.
