Map of the district of Berchtesgadener Land

The list of municipalities in the Berchtesgadener Land district gives an overview of the 15 smallest administrative units in the district . Three of the parishes are small towns .

The Berchtesgadener Land district was created in its current form as part of the Bavarian territorial reform carried out in 1972 . The district was formed from the Berchtesgaden district , parts of the Laufen district and the independent city of Bad Reichenhall . The current church structure was completed in 1979. Bad Reichenhall is the district town of the district; to compensate for the loss of district freedom, the city was elevated to the status of a major district town . In the district no municipalities have come together to form administrative communities. In the case of the municipalities, it is noted to which district the main town of the municipality belonged before the regional reform. The year in which they joined the municipality is noted for the districts of the municipalities. This is also noted for the districts (municipality parts) that belonged to a different district than the main town of today's municipality before the regional reform.
