history
The Preliminary church leadership of the then to the Evangelical Church of the Old Prussian Union belonging to the Church Province of Saxony decided in January 1946, the three Generalsuperintendenturen as supervisory districts through seven deaneries (1947 came to an eighth) to replace. In the administrative district of Magdeburg these were the three provosts Altmark (with the area of today's church districts Salzwedel and Stendal), Halberstadt-Quedlinburg (with the area of today's church districts Halberstadt and Egeln) and Magdeburg (with the area of today's church districts Elbe-Fläming, Haldensleben- Wolmirstedt and Magdeburg). Halberstadt-Quedlinburg and Magdeburg were combined in 1997 to form the Halberstadt-Magdeburg provost.
