history
As part of the administrative reorganization of the Kingdom of Saxony, the four district offices of Dresden , Bautzen , Zwickau and Leipzig were set up in 1835. The district directorate of Zwickau was subdivided into several administrative authorities , including the first administrative authority , which included the city of Chemnitz and the surrounding area.
1,874 were in Saxony Kingdom as part of a comprehensive administrative reform new district governor teams set up and Amtshauptmann teams. The administrative authority Chemnitz was formed from the court districts of Chemnitz, Limbach and Stollberg. The city of Chemnitz became district-free and did not belong to the new administration. In terms of their function and size, the Saxon authorities were comparable to a district .
On October 1, 1900, from the eastern part of the Zwickau district main team, the Chemnitz district main team was formed as the fifth Saxon district main team, to which the Chemnitz district administration also belonged from then on. On July 1, 1910, the south-western part of the Chemnitz Office was formed into a new Stollberg Office . Between 1894 and 1929, numerous suburbs of Chemnitz were incorporated into Chemnitz from the administrative authority. In 1928, as part of an exchange of territory between Saxony and Thuringia, the town of Rußdorf , which had previously been an exclave to Thuringia ( Altenburg district ), was incorporated. From the Amtshauptmannschaft Floeha in 1933 were some places in Chemnitztal u. a. Auerswalde , Garnsdorf and Oberlichtenau were reclassified to the Chemnitz District Administration.
In 1939 the administrative authority of Chemnitz was renamed the district of Chemnitz . The district of Chemnitz continued in the GDR until the territorial reform of 1952 and was then divided into the new districts of Karl-Marx-Stadt-Land , Hohenstein-Ernstthal and Stollberg in the Karl-Marx-Stadt district.
