history

The district of Erfurt from 1950 to 1952

In the Prussian province of Saxony, a district of Erfurt had existed since 1816 , which was dissolved in 1932 and incorporated into the northern district of Weißensee . As part of the first district reform in the GDR, a new district of Erfurt was founded on July 1, 1950. He sat down together

On July 25th, the districts of Erfurt , Gera and Suhl were formed in Thuringia ; at the same time there was another district reform. Came from the district of Erfurt

  • the community of Werningsleben to the district of Arnstadt
  • the city of Bad Tennstedt as well as the communities Bruchstedt, Großvargula, Haussummer, Herbsleben, Hornsommern, Klein Vargula, Kutzleben and Mittel Summer to the district of Langensalza and
  • the cities Sömmerda and Weissensee and the communities Gangloffsömmern, Günstedt, Henschleben, Riethgen, Rohrborn, Schallenburg, shearing village Schwerstedt, Sprötau, Straußfurt, Tunzenhausen, Vogelsberg, Waltersdorf, Wenigensömmern, Werningshausen and wonders of life for county Sömmerda .

All other municipalities together with the municipalities of Bienstädt , Döllstedt , Gierstädt , Großfahner and Kleinfahner from the district of Gotha formed the district of Erfurt-Land, which, like the districts of Arnstadt, Langensalza and Sömmerda, was assigned to the district of Erfurt.

The Erfurt-Land district from 1952 to 1990

The district administration ( council of the district in GDR times ) had its seat from 1954 to 1992 in the former Kurmainzische Lieutenancy in Erfurt. Today the Thuringian State Chancellery is located in this historic building .

A 40-hour continuous rain in the Thuringian Forest led to a huge flood in 1981. The Gera reached its highest level in Elxleben. On its course there were two dam breaks between Ringleben and Gebesee. In 1984 lightning struck the church tower in Schloßvippach and damaged the tower roof considerably. On July 11, 1984, a cyclone swept over Töttelstädt for three minutes. 80 percent of all houses were damaged. The church was worst hit: the storm had lifted the church tower and thrown it away. The only motorsport club in the district at that time was founded in 1985 in Stotternheim.

In 1990, Andreas Tuch was the first freely elected district administrator in the district after the fall of the Wall .

The district of Erfurt from 1990 to 1994

The district was renamed the district of Erfurt on May 17th . The district of Erfurt concluded an agreement on a district partnership with the district of Mainz-Bingen ( Rhineland-Palatinate ).

The Thuringian Restructuring Act (ThürNGG) of August 16, 1993 regulated the re-division of Thuringia into larger districts and urban districts. The district of Erfurt was dissolved on July 1, 1994. His universal legal successor is the Sömmerda district , based in Sömmerda . The communities of Alach, Frienstedt and Ermstedt were assigned to the city of Erfurt on April 1, 1994. A large number of other municipalities in the district then followed on July 1, 1994.
