The district of Hagenow existed in Mecklenburg from 1933 to 1952 . The district seat was in Hagenow . The district is now part of the Ludwigslust-Parchim district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania .

history

In 1925, the four offices of Hagenow, Boizenburg, Grabow and Neustadt were split into the two offices of Ludwigslust and Hagenow. In 1933 the Hagenow district became the Hagenow district . 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 Hagenow .

After the Second World War , the district initially belonged to the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ( Mecklenburg since 1947 ) in the Soviet occupation zone . Due to the division of the occupation zones, the right Elbe area of ​​the district of Lüneburg , the so-called Amt Neuhaus, fell to the district of Hagenow. In addition, on November 28, 1945, through the Barber-Lyaschtschenko Agreement, the Lassahn community came from the Duchy of Lauenburg to the Hagenow district.

On July 1, 1950, the Rögnitz community moved from the Schwerin district to the Hagenow district. During the territorial reform of 1952 , Rögnitz moved to the district of Gadebusch and the district of Hagenow was formed from the remaining district of Hagenow, which was assigned to the district of Schwerin . From 1952 to 1990 the district of Hagenow was the largest district in terms of area in the GDR.
