history

In 1803, in the course of the administrative reorganization of Bavaria, the district court Bamberg I and district court Bamberg II were formed, which were regional courts of the older order . In the Kingdom of Bavaria, these were judicial and administrative authorities, which were replaced in administrative terms by the district offices in 1862 and in legal terms by the local courts in 1879 . On the occasion of the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act on October 1, 1879, two district courts were established in Bamberg , which were combined in 1903 to form the Bamberg District Court . Today's regional court, on the other hand, was formed with the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act on October 1, 1879 from the Bamberg District Court founded in 1857 . The Higher Regional Court of Bamberg was also incidentally in 1879 from the Court of Appeal Bamberg .
