Graefenberg District Court

The district court of Graefenberg (until 1810: district court of Neunkirchen ) was a Bavarian district court of the older order that existed from 1803 to 1879 and was based in Graefenberg in today's Forchheim district . In the Kingdom of Bavaria , the regional courts were judicial and administrative authorities, which were replaced in administrative matters by the district offices in 1862 and in legal matters by the local courts in 1879 .

In 1803 the district court of Neunkirchen was established in the course of the administrative restructuring of Bavaria . After the establishment of the Kingdom of Bavaria, this was added to the Mainkreis , whose capital was Bamberg .

The Neunkirchen district court was mainly formed from areas that were part of the Bamberg bishopric before the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss . These were:
