history

Oberamt Nagold, territorial status 1813, with the former rule and office boundaries

Although large parts of the upper and middle Nagold Valley belonged to Württemberg before 1800, the area did not form a historical unit. An indication of the former territorial fragmentation of the transition zone between the Black Forest and Heckengäu is the existence of five medieval towns on less than 300 km². Nagold , among them the largest, had been the capital of a Württemberg office since the 14th century. The territories acquired with the cities of Wildberg (1440) and Altensteig (1603) were added to the administrative structure as independent offices. Within their limits, the three offices, since 1758 senior offices, preserved the historical development up to the great territorial and administrative reform of the Napoleonic era. In 1807, monastery offices and rent chamber property were integrated into the secular offices, the Oberamt Wildberg dissolved, the Oberamt Altensteig initially even enlarged, but also abolished in 1810 and distributed to the districts of Nagold and Calw. Neighbors of the Upper Office Nagold, which was assigned to the Black Forest District from 1818 to 1924, were the Wuerttemberg Upper Office of Neuenbürg , Calw , Herrenberg , Horb , Freudenstadt and the Grand Duchy of Baden after the reorganization .
