The Urfahr-Umgebung district is a political district of the Province of Upper Austria .
It extends north of Linz to the Czech border and, according to the division of the districts, belongs to the Mühlviertel . The district administration is based in Linz-Urfahr , a district of Linz north of the Danube. Thus, Urfahr-Umgebung is one of the few districts in Austria that is not named directly after the seat of the district authority or statutory city .
history
The Urfahr district was formed in 1903 by separating areas from the Freistadt district (district court district Leonfelden) and the district Linz-Land (district court district Ottensheim and Urfahr). At that time Urfahr was still an independent town, but in 1919 Urfahr was incorporated into Linz. The district, which had thus lost its main town, was renamed Urfahr-Umgebung.
On January 1, 1958, the Ottensheim District Court was dissolved and the municipalities were assigned to the Urfahr District Court.
On January 1, 2013, the District Court of Leonfelden was dissolved and the communities were divided between the districts of the District Courts of Freistadt and Rohrbach. Since then there is no longer a district court in the district and three district courts are responsible for the district, whose seats are in three different political districts.
Today, the Urfahr-Umgebung district, which used to be almost exclusively agricultural, is one of the fastest growing districts in Austria due to the coveted residential area near the state capital Linz. There is almost no industry, the majority of the residents commute to Linz.
On January 1, 2018, the municipality of Schönegg ( Rohrbach district ) became part of the Vorderweissenbach municipality , and the former municipality became part of the Urfahr-Umgebung district.
Administrative division
The Urfahr-Umgebung district is divided into 27 communities , including three towns and twelve market communities.
- The population figures are from January 1st, 2020.
