District of Oschersleben (Bode)
The district of Oschersleben (Bode) was a district that existed from 1816 to 1952 in the Prussian province of Saxony and in the state of Saxony-Anhalt of the Soviet occupation zone and the GDR .
Administrative history
Kingdom of Prussia
As part of the Prussian administrative reforms after the Congress of Vienna , the district of Oschersleben was established in the administrative district of Magdeburg in the province of Saxony on July 1, 1816 . This was last named "Oschersleben (Bode) ".
The district office was initially in Schwanebeck . On January 1, 1825, the town of Dardesheim and the villages of Aspenstedt , Athenstedt , Heudeber , Mahndorf, Mulmke , Rohrsheim , Ströbeck and Zilly moved from the Oschersleben district to the Halberstadt district . In 1859 the district office was relocated to Oschersleben .
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 September 30, 1929, a regional reform took place in the district in line with developments in the rest of the Free State of Prussia , in which almost all independent manor districts were dissolved and assigned to neighboring rural communities. On October 1, 1932, the rural communities of Emersleben , Groß Quenstedt , Harsleben , Klein Quenstedt and Wehrstedt were incorporated into the district from the disbanded district of Halberstadt .
On January 1, 1939, the district of Oschersleben (Bode) was given the designation Landkreis according to the uniform regulation in the German Reich . On August 1, 1941, the Pabstorf community was reclassified from the Wolfenbüttel district in Brunswick to the district and merged with the community of the same name, which was already part of the Oschersleben district. After the dissolution of the province of Saxony on July 1, 1944, the district belonged to the new province of Magdeburg . In the spring of 1945 the district was occupied by the US Army .
Soviet occupation zone / German Democratic Republic
The municipality of Wehrstedt left the district in 1946 and was incorporated into the independent city of Halberstadt . During the regional reform of 1950 , the district was enlarged to include the communities of Ausleben , Barneberg , Hötensleben , Ohrsleben and Wackersleben in the district of Haldensleben . At the same time, the community of Heteborn moved from the district of Oschersleben to the district of Quedlinburg .
During the territorial reform of 1952 , the state of Saxony-Anhalt and the district of Oschersleben were dissolved in their old form:
- The towns of Schwanebeck and Wegeleben and the communities of Aderstedt , Anderbeck , Badersleben , Dedeleben , Deesdorf , Dingelstedt am Huy , Eilenstedt , Eilsdorf , Groß Quenstedt , Harsleben , Huy-Neinstedt , Klein Quenstedt , Nienhagen , Pabstorf , Rodersdorf , Schlanstedt and Vogelsdorf came to the new one Halberstadt district .
- The city of Kroppenstedt became part of the new Staßfurt district .
- All other communities together with the Altbrandsleben community from the Wanzleben district and the Harbke , Marienborn , Sommersdorf and Völpke communities from the Haldensleben district formed the new Oschersleben district .
- The districts of Halberstadt, Oschersleben and Staßfurt were assigned to the new district of Magdeburg .
Federal Republic of Germany
The district of Oschersleben, again referred to as a district since 1990 , was dissolved in the course of the district reforms in Saxony-Anhalt on July 1, 1994 and the district was incorporated into the newly formed Bördekreis , which in turn became part of the Börde district in 2007.
