The district of Güstrow was in the middle of the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Neighboring districts were in the northern part of the district of Bad Doberan , in the northeastern district of North Western Pomerania in the east of the district of Demmin , in the south of the Müritz district , in the southwest of Parchim and west of the nordwestmecklenburg . A district of the same name already existed from 1939 to 1952, but with a different area.

The district of Güstrow lies between the Hanseatic city of Rostock in the north and the Mecklenburg Lake District in the south. In the northwest the Warnow flows through the district area, in the southeast the Peene rises .

history

In 1925, the Güstrow office was formed in Mecklenburg-Schwerin from the Bützow and Güstrow-Rossewitz offices. In 1933 the Güstrow district became the Güstrow district . The city of Güstrow remained independent. After Mecklenburg-Schwerin was united with Mecklenburg-Strelitz in 1934 to form a state of Mecklenburg , in 1939 the name of the district was changed to the district of Güstrow . In 1939, 204 communities with 56,314 inhabitants belonged to the district of Güstrow.

After the Second World War , the district belonged to the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in the Soviet occupation zone . The name of the country was changed to Mecklenburg in 1947 . Since 1949 it belonged to the GDR . In 1950 the city of Güstrow lost its district freedom and was incorporated into the district.

The old district of Güstrow was divided into three new districts on July 25, 1952 as part of the dissolution of the federal states. The core was formed by the Güstrow district , which had shrunk by more than half of its original area ; the Bützow district was created in the west and the Teterow district in the east . The districts of Güstrow and Bützow came to the district of Schwerin and the district of Teterow to the district of Neubrandenburg .

The regional reform in 1994 brought the three districts of Bützow, Güstrow and Teterow back together to form a common district of Güstrow - except for the area of ​​the Schwaan office , which became part of the new Bad Doberan district . With the district reform of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in 2011 , the district of Güstrow was combined with the district of Bad Doberan to form the new district of Rostock . The district administrative seat was Güstrow.
