Location of the Fallingbostel district in the province of Hanover (1905)

The Fallingbostel district was a district in the Prussian province of Hanover and Lower Saxony that existed until 1977 .

geography

The district bordered at the beginning of 1977 in a clockwise direction in the north, starting with the districts of Rotenburg , Soltau , Celle , Hanover , Grafschaft Hoya and Verden .

history

The Fallingbostel district was formed in 1885 from the old Hanoverian offices of Ahlden and Fallingbostel .

From October 1, 1932 to October 1, 1933, the Fallingbostel and Soltau districts were temporarily merged under the Fallingbostel district. The establishment of the Bergen military training area fell victim to eleven municipalities in the district in 1938. Their area was first transferred to the manor district of Platz Bergen and has belonged to the municipality-free district of Osterheide since 1945 . In the same year, the Bockel community also moved to the Soltau district. From 1938 to 1945 the area of what is now the municipality-free district of Lohheide in the district of Celle also belonged to the estate district of Platz Bergen in the district of Fallingbostel.

The municipal reform in Lower Saxony began in the district of Fallingbostel on 1 July 1968, when the municipalities Benefeld , Bomlitz, Borg and Uetzingen to a new community Bomlitz were merged. On July 1, 1972, the municipality of Hülsen left the district and was incorporated into the municipality of Dörverden in the district of Verden. Due to the law on the reorganization of the communities in the Soltau / Fallingbostel area , numerous communities in the district were merged on March 1, 1974. Kettenburg left the district and came to the town of Visselhövede in the Rotenburg district . Woltem also left the district and came to the city of Soltau in the district of Soltau. Overall, the regional reform reduced the number of municipalities in the district from 72 in 1967 to 17 in 1974.

In the final Lower Saxony district reform, the district became part of the new district of Soltau-Fallingbostel on August 1, 1977 together with the district of Soltau , which has been called the district of Heidekreis since August 1, 2011 .
