The district area 1905

The Landsberg (Warthe) district , until 1939 Landsberg (Warthe) district , also called Landsberg district until the 19th century , was a district in the Prussian province of Brandenburg that existed until 1945. Today the former district is mainly part of the Polish powiat Gorzowski in the Lubusz Voivodeship . The Landsberg (Warthe) district last comprised the city of Vietz as well as 94 other municipalities and two forest estate districts .

Administrative history

In the post-medieval period, the Margraviate of Brandenburg was divided into circles . One of these historical circles was the Landsberger Kreis or the Landsberg district , which formed one of the three so-called front circles in the Neumark . The district office was in the city of Landsberg a./Warthe. As part of the formation of provinces and administrative districts in Prussia, a district reform took place in the Frankfurt administrative district in 1816, in which the Landsberg district ceded the places Blumberg, Groß and Klein Kammin, Ludwigsgrund, Tamsel, Warnick and Wilhelmsbruch to the new Cüstrin district . On January 1, 1836, the Cüstrin district was dissolved again and the places that had belonged to the Landsberg district until 1816 returned to the Landsberg district.

On July 1, 1891, the Briesenhorst estate was incorporated from the Soldin district into the Landsberg a./Warthe district. On April 1, 1892, the city of Landsberg a./Warthe left the district and from then on formed its own urban district . This gave the district of Landsberg a./Warthe the name of a district . In the 1920s, the name "Landsberg (Warthe)" caught on.

On September 30, 1929, a regional reform took place in the Landsberg (Warthe) district in line with developments in the rest of the Free State of Prussia , in which almost all manor districts were dissolved and assigned to neighboring rural communities. During the Second World War , the Red Army captured the district in February 1945 and placed it under the administration of the People's Republic of Poland in March / April 1945 . This drove out the inhabitants in the following years and replaced them with Poles .

Local constitution

The Landsberg district was initially divided into the town of Landsberg a./Warthe, into rural communities and - until their almost complete dissolution in 1929 - into manor districts. With the introduction of the Prussian Municipal Constitutional Act of December 15, 1933, there was a uniform municipal constitution for all Prussian municipalities from January 1, 1934. With the introduction of the German Municipal Code of January 30, 1935, a uniform municipal constitution came into force in the German Reich on April 1, 1935, according to which the previous rural municipalities were now referred to as municipalities . These were grouped together in administrative districts . On July 1, 1935, the municipality of Vietz (Ostb.) Received city rights.

traffic

Landsberg an der Warthe was connected to the newly emerging railway network> 115.0 < as early as 1857 by the Küstrin – Schneidemühl line of the state Prussian Eastern Railway , which ran parallel to the Warthe and Netze to the east.

The Stargard-Cüstriner Railway Company was added in 1882, but only touched the Berneuchen station in the north-west corner of the 116.a district.

Landsberg only became a local hub at the turn of the century. In 1896/99 the Prussian State Railroad ran a branch line to Meseritz> 116.f <and in 1912 the lines to Soldin and Zielenzig> 116.d + h <.

Because of the demarcation of the border after 1919, the Deutsche Reichsbahn built a connection from Schwerin to Kreuz in 1935/36, which ran through the southeast of the district> 116.g <.

The numbers in> <refer to the German course book 1939.
