District of Trebnitz

District of Trebnitz, 1905

The district of Trebnitz was a Prussian district in Silesia and existed from 1742 to 1945. Its district town was the city of Trebnitz . The former district area is now in the Polish Lower Silesian Voivodeship .

Administrative history

Kingdom of Prussia / German Confederation

After the conquest of most of Silesia by Prussia in 1741, the royal cabinet order of November 25, 1741 introduced the Prussian administrative structures in Lower Silesia . This included the establishment of two war and domain chambers in Breslau and Glogau as well as their subdivision into districts and the appointment of district administrators on January 1, 1742.

In the principality of Oels , one of the Silesian sub-principalities, the Prussian districts of Oels-Bernstadt and Trebnitz were formed from the old Silesian soft images of Bernstadt, Oels and Trebnitz . Carl Christoph von Lemberg was appointed as the first district administrator in the Trebnitz district. The Trebnitz district was initially under the Wroclaw War and Domain Chamber and was assigned to the Breslau administrative district of the province of Silesia in the course of the Stein-Hardenberg reforms in 1815 .

During the district reform of January 1, 1818 in the administrative district of Breslau, the following reclassifications were made:

• The villages Groß and Klein Bischkowitz, Haasenau, Hennigsdorf, Kottwitz, Kunzendorf, Schebitz, Sponsberg and Striese came from the district of Breslau to the district of Trebnitz.
• The villages of Alt Hammer, Brustawe, Eisenhammer, Ellguth, Groß Lahse, Groß Perschnitz, Kesselsdorff, Klein Lahse, Klein Perschnitz, Liebenthal, Linsen, Neuvorwerk and Peterwitz came from the Trebnitz district to the Militsch district .
• The villages of Grottke, Lahserwitz, Pawelschöne, Peruschen, Pruskawe, Schilkwitz, Schlanowitz, Sigda, Striese and Wersingawe came from the Trebnitz district to the Wohlau district .

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 November 8, 1919, the province of Silesia was dissolved and the new province of Lower Silesia was formed from the administrative districts of Breslau and Liegnitz . On September 30, 1929, a regional reform took place in the Trebnitz district, as in the rest of the Free State of Prussia , in which all manor districts were dissolved and assigned to neighboring rural communities. On April 1, 1938, the Prussian provinces of Lower Silesia and Upper Silesia were merged to form the new Province of Silesia. On January 1, 1939, the Trebnitz district was given the name Landkreis, in accordance with the now unified regulation . On January 18, 1941, the province of Silesia was dissolved again and the new province of Lower Silesia was formed from the previous administrative districts of Breslau and Liegnitz.

In the spring of 1945 the district was occupied by the Red Army . In the summer of 1945, the district was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying power in accordance with the Potsdam Agreement . The influx of Polish civilians began in the district, some of whom came from the areas east of the Curzon Line that fell to the Soviet Union . In the period that followed, most of the German population was expelled from the district .

There is currently a district with the capital in Trebnitz, Powiat Trzebnicki , whose name translates to Trebnitz district . The Polish district, however, has a larger area.

Local constitution

Since the 19th century, the Trebnitz district has been divided into the cities of Stroppen and Trebnitz, into rural communities and manor districts . With the introduction of the Prussian Municipal Constitutional Act of December 15, 1933, there was a uniform municipal constitution for all Prussian municipalities from January 1, 1934. With the introduction of the German Municipal Code of January 30, 1935, a uniform municipal constitution came into force in the German Reich on April 1, 1935, according to which the previous rural municipalities were now referred to as municipalities . A new district constitution was no longer created; The district regulations for the provinces of East and West Prussia, Brandenburg, Pomerania, Silesia and Saxony from March 19, 1881 continued to apply.

Communities

In 1936 the district of Trebnitz comprised two cities and 148 rural communities:
