Administrative history

Czechoslovakia / German occupation

Before the Munich Agreement of September 29, 1938, the political district of Mährisch Schönberg (Czech: Šumperk) belonged to Czechoslovakia and before that to the Margraviate of Moravia, which belonged to the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

In the period from October 1st to October 10th, 1938, German troops occupied this area following the resolution of the Munich Agreement. The political district Šumperk comprised the judicial districts Mährisch Altstadt, Mährisch Schönberg and Wiesenberg. Since November 20, 1938, the political district of Mährisch Schönberg has been known as the “district”. Until that day he was subordinate to the Commander-in-Chief of the Army, Colonel General Walther von Brauchitsch , as head of the military administration.

German Empire

On November 21, the area of ​​the Mährisch Schönberg district was formally incorporated into the German Empire and came to the administrative district of the Sudeten German territories under Reich Commissioner Konrad Henlein .

The town of Mährisch Schönberg became the seat of the district administration .

From April 15, 1939, the law on the structure of the administration in the Reichsgau Sudetenland (Sudetengaugesetz) came into force . Then the district of Mährisch Schönberg came to the Reichsgau Sudetenland and was assigned to the new administrative district of Troppau .

On May 1, 1939, the partially cut districts in the Sudetenland were reorganized. After that, the Mährisch Schönberg district was retained within its previous boundaries. The communities Glasdörfl , Goldenfluss , Groß Mohrau, Hohenfluss and Klein Mohrau came from the Mährisch Schönberg district to the Grulich district .

It remained in this state until the end of World War II.

Czech Republic

From 1945 the area belonged again to Czechoslovakia. Today it is part of the Czech Republic .

Local constitution

On the day before the formal incorporation into the German Reich, namely on November 20, 1938, all municipalities were subject to the German municipal code of January 30, 1935, which provided for the implementation of the Führer principle at the municipal level. From then on, the terms customary in the previous territory of the Reich were used, namely instead:

  • Local parish: Municipality,
  • Market town: market,
  • Municipality: City,
  • Political district: District.

Place names

The previous place names continued to apply, namely in the German-Austrian version from 1918.
