The Burggrafenamt Creußen already existed at the time of the Nuremberg burgraves . Under the margraves it was part of the Bayreuth administration. In 1680 the Oberamt Creußen was established. In 1766 the Oberamt Osternohe was incorporated, and in 1780 the Oberamt Pegnitz .

Towards the end of the 18th century, the Oberamt Creußen included the offices of Creußen, Lindenhardt, Osternohe, Pegnitz, Plech and Schnabelwaid.

From 1791/92 the Principality of Bayreuth was administered by the Prussian state as Ansbach-Bayreuth . The Oberamt Creußen was thus incorporated into the Bayreuth district .
