geography
From 1994 to 2011, the district of Ludwigslust was the largest district in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in terms of area and population and was located in its southwest. Neighboring districts were in the north of nordwestmecklenburg and county-level and state capital Schwerin , to the east of Parchim , in southeastern Brandenburg Prignitz district , in the south of Lower Saxony Lüchow-Dannenberg , in southwestern also in Lower Saxony district Lüneburg of and to the west of Schleswig-Holstein District of the Duchy of Lauenburg . From 1939 to 1952 there was already a district of the same name with a slightly different area.
The area of the former district reaches the Elbe at Boitzenburg and Dömitz and borders Schwerin in the north. The district was a typical sectoral district .
history
In 1925, the Ludwigslust office was formed from the old Grabow and Ludwigslust offices in Mecklenburg-Schwerin . In 1933 the Ludwigslust district became the Ludwigslust district . After Mecklenburg-Schwerin was united with Mecklenburg-Strelitz to form a state of Mecklenburg in 1934 , the name of the district was changed to Ludwigslust district in 1939 . In 1939, 99 communities with 51,263 inhabitants belonged to the district.
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 . During the territorial reform of 1952 , the state of Mecklenburg was dissolved and the district of Ludwigslust was divided into the new districts of Ludwigslust and Parchim , both of which were assigned to the Schwerin district .
The Ludwigslust district, which existed until 2011, was given its shape in 1994 when the Hagenow district and the Rastow and Stralendorf offices of the Schwerin-Land district were merged with the Ludwigslust district.
On May 25, 2009, the district received the title “ Place of Diversity ” awarded by the federal government .
According to political plans, the Ludwigslust district should merge into a newly founded "West Mecklenburg district" with the district town of Schwerin , the Parchim district and the northwest Mecklenburg district. After the ruling of the state constitutional court of July 26, 2007, the first reform law could not be implemented as incompatible with the state's constitution.
As part of a district reform in 2011 , the Ludwigslust district became part of the new Ludwigslust-Parchim district with the Parchim district seat.
