history

The area of ​​the Waiblingen district belonged mainly to Württemberg before 1800 . Therefore, it existed before 1800, the upper offices Waiblingen and Schorndorf , in addition to the upper office Lorch had shares in the future the district. From 1810, the upper offices belonged to the Landvogtei Rothenberg (Waiblingen) or to the Fils and Rems (Schorndorf and Lorch). From 1818 the Oberamt Waiblingen belonged to the Neckar District , the Oberamt Schorndorf and Lorch (from 1819 Welzheim) to the Jagstkreis , both of which were dissolved in 1924. In 1934 the senior offices were renamed to districts and in 1938 the districts of Welzheim and Schorndorf were dissolved. Most of the communities in the Schorndorf district and some communities in the Welzheim district came to the Waiblingen district, while others also came to the Schwäbisch Gmünd and Göppingen districts. At the same time, the Waiblingen district gave some communities to the Ludwigsburg district, so that it reached its last known expansion. In 1945 the Waiblingen district became part of the newly formed state of Württemberg-Baden , which was merged into the state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952 . From then on he belonged to the administrative region of North Württemberg, which included the Württemberg part of Württemberg-Baden.

With effect from January 1, 1973, the Waiblingen district was dissolved. His communities were completely absorbed in the newly founded Rems-Murr district , which became the legal successor to the Waiblingen district.

Communities

From 1938 onwards, 61 municipalities initially belonged to the Waiblingen district, including 5 towns.

On March 7, 1968, the state parliament of Baden-Württemberg set the course for a community reform . With the law to strengthen the administrative power of smaller municipalities , it was possible for smaller municipalities to voluntarily unite to form larger municipalities. The beginning in the district of Waiblingen was made on January 1st, 1970 by the municipalities of Oberurbach and Unterurbach, which merged to form the new municipality of Urbach. In the period that followed, the number of communities steadily decreased until the Waiblingen district was finally dissolved on January 1, 1973.

The largest municipality in the district was the city of Fellbach , which has been a major district town since April 1, 1956 . The smallest communities were Ödernhardt (in 1961) and Bretzenacker (in 1970).
