In the Soviet occupation zone , the Stargard district was dissolved in Mecklenburg in 1946 . The district of Neustrelitz was formed from its south-western part, including the previously independent city of Neustrelitz . In 1950 the Fürstenberger Werder with the city of Fürstenberg was reclassified to the Ruppin district in the state of Brandenburg .

On July 25, 1952, there was another district reform in the GDR , in which, among other things, the states were dissolved. The Neustrelitz district was enlarged to include parts of the Waren district and assigned to the Neubrandenburg district of the GDR .

On May 17, 1990, the district became the Neustrelitz district. When the two German states were reunified , the circle was awarded to the re-established state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . During the first district reform in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania , which came into force on June 12, 1994, his area was incorporated into the new districts of Mecklenburg-Strelitz and Müritz , which in turn became part of the Mecklenburg Lake District in 2011 .
