The district of Trier in the administrative district of Trier in the Prussian Rhine province was founded in 1816 and existed until the Rhineland-Palatinate administrative reform in 1969.
geography
At the beginning of 1969 the district bordered in a clockwise direction in the northwest with the districts Bitburg , Wittlich , Bernkastel and Birkenfeld (all in Rhineland-Palatinate), the districts Sankt Wendel and Merzig-Wadern (both in Saarland ) as well as the district Saarburg and the Independent city of Trier (both in turn in Rhineland-Palatinate).
history
Until the French occupation of 1794, the district was mainly part of the Electorate of Trier and the Duchy of Luxembourg . In 1798 it came to France and was incorporated into the Saar department . There it belonged to the arrondissements of Birkenfeld and Trier .
After the area to Prussia came was in 1816 when the district division of the governmental district Trier furnished including the city district and the district of Trier. In addition to the city of Trier, which formed its own mayor's office , the Trier district also included the suburbs of Trier and several Trier suburbs.
On April 1, 1888, most of the mayor's suburbs of Trier with the municipalities of Euren , Heiligkreuz , Kürenz , Olewig , Pallien , Sankt Matthias-Medard-Feyen and Zewen-Oberkirch were reclassified from the Trier district to the Trier district.
In 1912, the three communities Heiligkreuz, Pallien and Sankt Matthias-Medard-Feyen left the district and were incorporated into the city of Trier. On July 1, 1930, the municipalities of Euren, Kürenz and Olewig as well as the district of Biewer , which had previously belonged to Pfalzel, were incorporated into the city of Trier.
On May 1, 1945, by order of the French occupying forces, the municipalities of Bierfeld , Braunshausen , Buweiler-Rathen , Kastel , Kostenbach , Nonnweiler , Otzenhausen , Primstal and Sitzerath were reclassified from the Trier district to the Wadern district .
On July 18, 1946, the French military government reorganized the communities of Filzen , Hamm , Kommlingen , Könen , Konz , Krettnach , Niedermennig , Oberbillig , Oberemmel , Paschel , Pellingen and Wasserliesch from the Trier district into the Saarburg district , which was also assigned to the Saar area . When the district of Saarburg was reclassified to Rhineland-Palatinate on June 7, 1947 , these communities remained in the district of Saarburg.
On June 7, 1969, the district of Trier was dissolved:
- The communities Ehrang-Pfalzel , Eitelsbach , Filsch , Irsch , Kernscheid , Ruwer , Tarforst and Zewen-Oberkirch were incorporated into the city of Trier.
- The communities of Minden and Menningen came to the district of Bitburg .
- The municipality of Börfink-Muhl came to the district of Birkenfeld .
- All other communities were merged with the Saarburg district to form the Trier-Saarburg district.
In the next reform step, which came into force on November 7, 1970, the communities that came from the old district of Trier changed from Eisenach , Gilzem and Orenhofen to the district of Bitburg-Prüm and Breit , Büdlich , Heidenburg and Trittenheim to the district of Bernkastel-Wittlich . The district of Muhl, also in the district of Trier until 1969, was changed from the district of Birkenfeld to Neuhütten in the district of Trier-Saarburg.
