Location of the community of Liebenwerda in the Elbe-Elster district | ||
The municipality of Liebenwerda has been the superordinate administrative unit of the four cities of Bad Liebenwerda , Falkenberg / Elster , Mühlberg / Elbe and Uebigau-Wahrenbrück (all districts of Elbe-Elster ) since January 1, 2020 . Their formation was decided on March 22, 2019. The cities became local parishes of the Verbandsgemeinde.
The merger is intended to improve administrative processes and save money, while at the same time maintaining a certain degree of independence.
As the first of its kind in Brandenburg , the Liebenwerda community also serves as a pilot project for the state government. Association communities have existed in Rhineland-Palatinate since 1968 and in Saxony-Anhalt since 2009 .
