history

Gerolzhofen had been the seat of a prince-bishop's bailiff since 1492 . After secularization , the regional court of Gerolzhofen was established in 1804 as part of the administrative restructuring of Bavaria . From 1806 to 1814 it was a regional court in the Grand Duchy of Würzburg . This came in 1817 to the newly founded Untermainkreis , the forerunner of the later administrative district of Lower Franconia . The Gerolzhofen District Office was formed in 1862 through the merger of the Gerolzhofen and Wiesentheid regional courts . This was enlarged in 1872 by some communities from the disbanded Volkach district office . With the introduction of the Courts Constitution Act on October 1, 1879, a district court was established in Gerolzhofen , the district of which was formed from the regional court district.
