history
The administrative district of North Baden was established as one of four administrative districts with the formation of the State of Baden-Württemberg in 1952, the others were the administrative district of South Baden , the administrative district of North Württemberg and the administrative district of South Württemberg-Hohenzollern . The administrative district of North Baden comprised the northern part of the former state of Baden and the state district of Baden of the state of Württemberg-Baden formed by the American military administration in 1945/46 . The responsible regional council was established in Karlsruhe .
During the district reform on January 1, 1973, the boundaries of the administrative district changed very much. Since then, the regional council in Karlsruhe has also been responsible for districts that were previously part of Württemberg or were administered by the regional council of southern Baden in Freiburg. In return, areas were transferred to the responsibility of the Stuttgart Regional Council.
Therefore, the name was changed from the administrative district of North Baden to the administrative district of Karlsruhe.
