District of Lübben (Spreewald)
The district of Lübben (Spreewald) , originally the district of Lübben or Lübbenscher district , was a district in Brandenburg . It existed in Prussia , in the Soviet occupation zone and in the GDR until 1952.

The former district area is now largely part of the Dahme-Spreewald district .
Administrative history
Kingdom of Prussia
As one of the results of the Congress of Vienna , the Kingdom of Saxony had to cede Niederlausitz to Prussia in 1815. One of the five historical districts of Niederlausitz was the Lübben district or the district of Lübben. Niederlausitz became part of the new administrative district of Frankfurt , in which a comprehensive district reform was carried out in 1816. The old Lübben district was significantly enlarged:
- The Beeskow rule , until then part of the Kurmark , was incorporated into the Lübben district.
- The places Mochlitz , Niewisch , Pieskow , Speichrow , Trebitz and Ullersdorf changed from the Guben district to the Lübben district.
- The place Frauenberg moved from the Luckau district to the Lübben district.
- The places Gosda , Missen , Säritz and Werchow moved from the district of Lübben to the district of Calau .
On January 1, 1836 the former rule Beeskow retired again from the circle and was part of the new district Beeskow-Storkow in the administrative district of Potsdam province Brandenburg.
North German Confederation / German Empire
Since July 1, 1867, the district belonged to the North German Confederation and from January 1, 1871 to the German Empire .
On April 1, 1882, the rural community Amalienhof and the Amalienhof estate from the Beeskow-Storkow district were incorporated into the Lübben district, while the Kossenblatt rural community and parts of the Kossenblatt estate and the Kossenblatt forest protection district moved from the Lübben district to the Beeskow-Storkow district.
The Lübben district has been known as Lübben (Spreewald) since 1928. On September 30, 1929, a regional reform took place in the district of Lübben (Spreewald) in line with developments in the rest of the Free State of Prussia , in which all manor districts except two were dissolved and assigned to neighboring rural communities. On January 1, 1939, the district of Lübben (Spreewald) carried the designation district in accordance with the now uniformly empire regulation .
In the spring of 1945 the district was occupied by the Red Army .
