History

The district of Wongrowiec was initially a district in the Prussian province of South Prussia, which became part of Prussia after the Second Partition of Poland in 1793. With the Treaty of Tilsit in 1807, it passed to the Duchy of Warsaw. After the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the district was returned to Prussia and became part of Bromberg Region in the Grand Duchy of Posen and from 1848, the Province of Posen. The district capital was the town of Wongrowiec.

As part of the Province of Posen, the Wongrowiec district became part of the German Empire in 1871. In 1875 the town and the district of Wongrowiec were renamed Wongrowitz. In 1887, a large part of the district, including the town of Janowiec Wielkopolski was ceded to the newly formed Znin district.

On December 27, 1918, the Greater Poland uprising began in the province of Posen, and by December 30, 1918, the district town of Wongrowitz was under Polish control. On February 16, 1919, an armistice ended the Polish-German fighting, and on June 28, 1919, the German government officially ceded the Wongrowitz district to the Second Polish Republic with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles.

Demographics

According to the census of 1858, Kreis Wongrowitz had a population of 51,127, of which 13,230 (25.9%) were Germans and 37,897 (74.1%) were Poles. [1]

The Grand Duchy of Posen was part of the Kingdom of Prussia, created from territories annexed by Prussia after the Partitions of Poland, and formally established following the Napoleonic Wars in 1815. Per agreements derived at the Congress of Vienna it was to have some autonomy. However, in reality it was subordinated to Prussia and the proclaimed rights for Polish subjects were not fully implemented. On 9 February 1849, the Prussian administration renamed the grand duchy to the Province of Posen. Its former name was unofficially used afterward for denoting the territory, especially by Poles, and today is used by modern historians to refer to different political entities until 1918. Its capital was Posen.

From 1934, Posen-West Prussia was de facto ruled by Brandenburg until it was dissolved by Nazi Germany, effective 1 October 1938 and its territory divided between the Prussian provinces of Pomerania, Brandenburg and Silesia.

The Provinces of Prussia were the main administrative divisions of Prussia from 1815 to 1946. Prussia's province system was introduced in the Stein-Hardenberg Reforms in 1815, and were mostly organized from duchies and historical regions. Provinces were divided into several Regierungsbezirke, sub-divided into Kreise (districts), and then into Gemeinden (townships) at the lowest level. Provinces constituted the highest level of administration in the Kingdom of Prussia and Free State of Prussia until 1933, when Nazi Germany established de facto direct rule over provincial politics, and were formally abolished in 1946 following World War II. The Prussian provinces became the basis for many federal states of Germany, and the states of Brandenburg, Lower Saxony, and Schleswig-Holstein are direct successors of provinces.
