Heidenheim district court

The Heidenheim district court was an older Bavarian district court that existed from 1808 to 1879 and was based in Heidenheim in what is now the Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen 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 1808, in the course of the administrative restructuring of Bavaria, the district court of Heidenheim was established. This came first to the Altmühlkreis , from 1810 to the Oberdonaukreis and from 1817 to the Rezatkreis , which was renamed Middle Franconia in 1838 .

The Heidenheim regional court bordered the Gunzenhausen regional court in the north, the Wassertrüdingen regional court in the north-west, the Ellingen and Pappenheim regional courts in the east (later the Weißenburg regional court ), the Oettingen city and regional court in the west (later the Nördlingen regional court ) and in the south the district courts of Wemding and Monheim .
