The district of Öhringen was a district in Baden-Württemberg , which was dissolved in the course of the district reform on January 1, 1973 .
geography
location
The district of Öhringen was in the northeast of Baden-Württemberg .
Geographically, he had a share in the Hohenlohe plain and the Waldenburg mountains . The Kocher , a right tributary of the Neckar , ran through the district .
Neighboring areas
Its neighbors were 1972 clockwise beginning in the north Künzelsau , Schwäbisch Hall and Heilbronn .
history
Before 1800, the area of the district of Öhringen belonged mainly to the Principality of Hohenlohe . Due to the effects of the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss , the area came to Württemberg , where it initially belonged to the Oberamt Neuenstein in the district of Öhringen. In 1810/11 it became part of the newly founded Oberamt Öhringen within the Landvogtei an der Jagst and from 1818 it belonged to the Jagstkreis (which was dissolved in 1924). In 1926 the neighboring Oberamt Weinsberg was dissolved and parts of it were incorporated into the Oberamt Öhringen. In 1934 the Oberamt Öhringen was renamed the Öhringen district and in 1938 it was transferred to the Öhringen district.
The division of Württemberg due to the occupation after the Second World War led to the affiliation to the new state of Württemberg-Baden . With the restructuring of the federal states in southwest Germany, the district came to Baden-Württemberg in 1952 and was added to the administrative district of North Württemberg . As a result of the municipal reform from 1970, the district area changed in four cases. On January 1, 1972, the municipality of Muthof, district of Künzelsau , was incorporated into the city of Forchtenberg and thus became part of the district of Öhringen. Eschental and Goggenbach also came from the Schwäbisch Hall district to the Öhringen district on January 1, 1972 , because they were incorporated into Kupferzell . On April 1, 1972, the community of Gaisbach was incorporated into the city of Künzelsau and thus left the district of Öhringen.
With effect from January 1, 1973, the district of Öhringen was dissolved and its communities were mainly assigned to the newly formed Hohenlohekreis , which thus became the legal successor to the district of Öhringen. Three communities came to the Heilbronn district .

Communities

On March 7, 1968, the state parliament of Baden-Württemberg set the course for a community reform . With the law to strengthen the administrative power of smaller municipalities , it was possible for smaller municipalities to voluntarily unite to form larger municipalities. The beginning in the district of Öhringen was made on January 1, 1971 by two communities that united with their neighboring community, namely Oberohrn with the community of Pfedelbach and Obersteinbach with the town of Waldenburg . In the period that followed, the number of communities steadily decreased until the district of Öhringen finally became almost entirely part of the Hohenlohe district on January 1, 1973 .
The largest municipality in the district was the district town of Öhringen . The smallest community was Siebeneich.
