history

The Oberamt was established in 1807 and consisted mainly of former Austrian or knightly places that had come under Württemberg sovereignty as a result of the Pressburg Peace and the Rhine Confederation Act . Neighbors of the district, which was part of the Black Forest District from 1818 to 1924, were the Württemberg regional authorities Nagold , Herrenberg , Rottenburg , Freudenstadt and the Principality of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, which became Prussian in 1849 .
