history

Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach

The Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach was divided into five administrative districts in 1850, which were comparable in size to rural districts . The administrative district of Weimar, also known as the 1st administrative district , comprised the western part of the former Duchy of Saxony-Weimar , which was also known as the Weimar District in the 19th century . The Ilmenau exclave also belonged to the administrative district .

The Weimar administrative district covered an area of ​​972 km² in 1910 and had 111,694 inhabitants.

State of Thuringia

In 1918 the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach became the Free State of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach , which in turn became part of the State of Thuringia on May 1, 1920 . In the course of a comprehensive regional reform, the Weimar administrative district gave up municipalities to the city of Weimar and the Arnstadt , Jena-Roda and Rudolstadt districts in 1922 . A new district of Weimar was formed from the following components:

• the remaining core area of ​​the administrative district Weimar
• a large part of the dissolved administrative district of Apolda including the Allstedt exclave ( also Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach until 1920 )
• the communities Keßlar and Meckfeld from the disbanded District Office Roda ( until 1920 Sachsen-Altenburg )
• the communities Barchfeld an der Ilm , Kranichfeld , Riechheim , Stedten , Treppendorf and Untersteusulza from the district of Saalfeld ( until 1920 Sachsen-Meiningen ) as well
• the municipality of Werningshausen from the dissolved district office Gotha ( until 1920 Saxe-Coburg and Gotha ).

The cities of Weimar and Apolda became independent and did not belong to the new district of Weimar. On April 1, 1925, the community Lachstedt moved to the Camburg district department .

SBZ and GDR

After the Second World War , the Allstedt exclave was reclassified from the Weimar district to the Sangerhausen district in the province of Saxony on October 1, 1945 . During the first district reform in the GDR , on July 1, 1950, the district gave the community of Riechheim to the district of Arnstadt , the community of Göttern to the district of Jena and the communities of Haufeld, Neckeroda and Treppendorf to the district of Rudolstadt . In addition, 37 communities from the west of the district were given to the district of Erfurt .

During the territorial reform of 1952 in the GDR, the state of Thuringia was dissolved. The district of Weimar gave large parts of the area to the new districts of Apolda and Sömmerda . The remaining core of the district continued to exist as the Weimar-Land district . The districts of Apolda, Sömmerda, and Weimar-Land were all assigned to the new district of Erfurt .
