Oberamt Laupheim
The Oberamt Laupheim was an administrative district in Württemberg , which was created in 1842 by renaming the Oberamt Wiblingen, which was formed in 1808, renamed the district of Laupheim in 1934 and in 1938 was largely merged with the district of Biberach . For general information on the Württemberg authorities, see Oberamt (Württemberg) .
history
The region in northern Upper Swabia between the Danube, Iller and Riss has been under the influence of the Habsburgs since the Middle Ages . As a result of the Pressburg Peace Treaty and the Rhine Confederation Act , Württemberg, which was upgraded to a kingdom in 1806, was granted the possessions of the Wiblingen Monastery, formerly the Upper Austrian state, and some manors came under Württemberg sovereignty. Within the Oberamt Biberach formed in 1806, to which these new acquisitions initially belonged, the Unteramt Wiblingen was established in 1808. After the Paris border treaty had finally established the border between Bavaria and Württemberg along the Iller, Wiblingen was upgraded to an upper office in 1810. In 1842 Laupheim was designated as the administrative seat. While the Oberamt and District Court moved to Laupheim in 1845, the Kameralamt remained in Wiblingen until 1909. Neighbors of the district assigned to the Danube District from 1818 to 1924 were the Württemberg regional offices of Ulm , Biberach , Ehingen and the Bavarian Upper Danube District , later the district of Swabia and Neuburg , with the district courts of Neu-Ulm and Illertissen.
