history
The district of Schaumburg was formed as part of the Lower Saxony district reform on August 1, 1977 from the two former districts of Schaumburg-Lippe and Grafschaft Schaumburg as well as part of the district of Springe , whereby the city of Hessisch Oldendorf was assigned to the district of Hameln-Pyrmont . The communities of Großenheidorn , Idensermoor-Niengraben and Steinhude were incorporated into Wunstorf on March 1, 1974 and thus moved to the district of Hanover . Since then, the district of Schaumburg has roughly reunited the historic medieval state of Grafschaft Schaumburg . This was divided in 1647 between the Landgraves of Hesse-Kassel , the Counts of Lippe and the Duchy of Calenberg. From the Hessian part the Grafschaft Schaumburg, which came to the Prussian province Hessen-Nassau in 1866 , was then run as the Grafschaft Grafschaft Schaumburg (with the district town Rinteln ) and was allocated to the province of Hanover in 1932 as part of an administrative reform within Prussia .
The Lippe part of the Grafschaft Schaumburg was called after 1647 Grafschaft Schaumburg-Lippe , which rose to a principality in 1807, became a free state in 1918 and remained an independent state until 1946, which then became part of the new federal state of Lower Saxony. The state of Schaumburg-Lippe consisted of the two districts of Bückeburg and Stadthagen , which were combined in 1948 to form the district of Schaumburg-Lippe.
