Tbingen (District)

Tbingen is a district (Kreis) in the middle of Baden-Wrttemberg, Germany. Neighboring districts are (from north clockwise) Bblingen, Reutlingen, Zollernalbkreis and Freudenstadt.

History

The district dates back to the Oberamt Tbingen in the state of Wrttemberg. In 1811 the Oberamt Rottenburg was created, and both were converted into districts in 1934. In 1938 most of the district Rottenburg as well as a few municipalities from the district Herrenberg and Reutlingen were added to the district Tbingen. In 1974 it was enlarged again when some municipalities from the dissolved district Horb were added.

Geography

The main river in the district is the Neckar. The landscapes covered by the district are called Oberer Gu and Schnbuch.
