Administrative history

Czechoslovakia / German occupation

Before the Munich Agreement of September 29, 1938, the political district of Dubá belonged to Czechoslovakia .

In the period from October 1st to October 10th, 1938, German troops occupied this area. The political district of Dubá from then on carried the former German-Austrian name Dauba . The political district of Dauba included the judicial districts of Dauba and Wegstädtl . Since November 20, 1938, the Dauba political district has been known as the "district". Until that day he was subordinate to the Commander-in-Chief of the Army, Colonel General Walther von Brauchitsch , as head of the military administration.

German Empire

On November 21, the area of ​​the Dauba district was formally incorporated into the German Reich and came to the administrative district of the Sudeten German Territories under Reich Commissioner Konrad Henlein .

The town of Dauba became the seat of the district administration .

From April 15, 1939, the law on the structure of the administration in the Reichsgau Sudetenland (Sudetengaugesetz) came into force . Then the district of Dauba came to the Reichsgau Sudetenland and was assigned to the new administrative district of Aussig .

On May 1, 1939, the partially cut districts in the Sudetenland were reorganized. After that, the Dauba district was dissolved. Its western half (judicial district Wegstädtl) fell to the district of Leitmeritz , the eastern part (judicial district Dauba) to the district of Böhmisch Leipa .

As early as August 1, 1939, the district was rebuilt within its previous boundaries (judicial districts Dauba and Wegstädtl). He also received the communities Bösig , Neudorf, Nossadel, Weißwasser ( localities Leimgruben and Wasatschka), Wiska and Zolldorf ( locality Waldsteinruhe 2nd ant.) From the district of Böhmisch Leipa .

It remained in this state until the end of World War II .

Since 1945 the area belonged to Czechoslovakia again. Today it is part of the Czech Republic .

On the day before the formal incorporation into the German Reich, namely on November 20, 1938, all municipalities were subject to the German municipal code of January 30, 1935, which provided for the implementation of the Führer principle at the municipal level. The terms customary in the Reich were introduced: Ortsgemeinde → Gemeinde, Marktgemeinde → Markt, Stadtgemeinde → Stadt, Politischer Bezirk → Landkreis. The previous place names continued to apply, namely in the German-Austrian version of 1918.
