history
The Chemnitz administrative district was formed on August 1, 2008 from the Chemnitz administrative district and the Döbeln district. This district was assigned to the new Central Saxony district .
In 1835, district directorates were created as higher state authorities in the Kingdom of Saxony , and in 1874 they were renamed "district chiefs ". In the course of history, their boundaries have changed several times. So went in 1900 from the division of the eastern part of Kreishauptmannschaft Zwickau the Kreishauptmannschaft Chemnitz forth. The four Saxon district chiefs of Chemnitz, Dresden , Leipzig and Zwickau were renamed government districts in 1938 based on the Prussian model. After the Second World War, administrative districts were initially supposed to be established again, but in 1947 this intention was initially not pursued in the Soviet occupation zone .
After the dissolution of the states in the GDR in 1952, state districts were set up, but their function was not comparable with the government districts. In the course of these changes, the large district of Karl-Marx-Stadt was created through the connection of the former government district of Zwickau . With the re-establishment of the state of Saxony in 1990, the basis for the formation of new government districts was created in Saxony. The administrative district of Chemnitz, newly established on January 1, 1991, largely comprised the area of the former Karl-Marx-Stadt district .
