Deutsch Krone (district)

The district of Deutsch Krone (German: Landkreis Deutsch Krone) was a district in Prussia from 1772 to 1945. It belonged to the part of West Prussia that remained in the German Reich after World War I and became part of the Province of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia. From 1938 to 1945, it belonged to the Province of Pomerania. Today the territory of the district area lies in the Polish Voivodeships of West Pomerania and Greater Poland.

History

The Deutsch Krone district became part of the Kingdom of Prussia after the First Partition of Poland in 1772. Through the Treaty of Tilsit, the southern part of the district with the towns of Filehne, Schönlanke and Schneidemühl fell to the Duchy of Warsaw in 1807. As part of the Prussian administrative reforms, on April 30, 1815, the district became part of the new administrative region of Marienwerder in the province of West Prussia. Several exclaves were mutually exchanged with the neighboring district of Dramburg in the northwest. After the final determination of the new district boundaries in the Marienwerder region, the Deutsch Krone district comprised the towns of Deutsch Krone, Jastrow, Märkisch Friedland, Schloppe and Tütz. The seat of the district office was in the town of Deutsch Krone.[1]

From December 3, 1829 to April 1, 1878, West Prussia and East Prussia were united to form the Province of Prussia, which had belonged to the German Reich since January 1871. In contrast to most of the other West Prussian districts, the predominantly German-populated district of Deutsch Krone remained in Germany after World War I. On November 20, 1919, the district was subordinated to the new administrative region of Grenzmark West Prussia-Posen with its seat in Schneidemühl. On January 11, 1921, the administrative region of "Grenzmark West Prussia-Posen" was renamed "Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia". On July 1, 1922, the new province of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia was formed from the administrative region. The new administrative region of Schneidemühl was formed on August 1, 1922, which was congruent to the province. On October 1, 1938, after the dissolution of the Province of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia, the Deutsch Krone district was incorporated into the Province of Pomerania. For reasons of tradition, the administrative region of Schneidemühl was given the name "Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia".

In the spring of 1945, the area of the Deutsch Krone district was occupied by the Red Army. After the end of World War II, the district fell within the newly redrawn borders of Poland under the terms of the Potsdam Agreement.

Transportation

The first rail connection in the district was established in 1879 on the Schneidemühl - Jastrow - Neustettin line of the Prussian Eastern Railway. Then in 1881, the Prussian State Railroad reached the district town Deutsch Krone from Schneidemühl and then in 1888, the junction of Kallies in the district of Dramburg.

After the town of Märkisch Friedland in the west of the district was connected to the Kallies - Falkenburg route in 1900, the Tempelburg - Jastrow line followed in the north in 1908, which was extended to Flatow in 1914. At the same time, the Deutsch Krone - Plietnitz - Flatow line also went into operation.

Before that, the Deutsch Krone district had built two small railways of its own, starting from the district town:

  • 1898 from Westbahnhof to Virchow in the Dramburg district and
  • 1904 from the Südbahnhof to Schloppe, where as early as 1899 the line continued to Kreuz. This created a rail network of length 220 km, 63 km of which belonged to the district.

The former Reichsstrasse 1 (Aachen - Eydtkuhnen) ran through Deutsch Krone.
