history

Oberamt Künzelsau, territorial status 1813, with the earlier rule and office boundaries
legend

The Oberamt consisted exclusively of territories that had been assigned to Württemberg as part of secularization , mediatization and the Rhine Confederation Act between 1802 and 1806. One of its forerunners was the Oberamt Schöntal , which was formed in 1803 from the area of ​​the abolished Schöntal Monastery . The Oberämter Neuenstein and Nitzenhausen were formed from the former Hohenlohe areas acquired in 1806, and their official seat was relocated to Öhringen and Ingelfingen on November 1, 1809 . After some border shifts between these three offices had already taken place in 1809, the Oberamt Schöntal was dissolved in 1810 and the communities distributed to the surrounding districts. On July 6, 1811, the seat of the upper office was moved from Ingelfingen to Künzelsau . The sub-offices Bartenstein and Langenburg, which had previously belonged to the Ingelfingen District Office, came to the Gerabronn District Office.

Neighbors of the district assigned to the Jagstkreis from 1818 to 1924 were the Württemberg regional offices of Mergentheim , Gerabronn , Hall , Öhringen , Neckarsulm and the Grand Duchy of Baden .
