bernburg (district)

Bernburg is a district in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. It is bounded by (from the north and clockwise) the districts of Schnebeck, Kthen, Saalkreis, Mansfelder Land and Aschersleben-Stafurt.

History

There was a state called Anhalt-Bernburg following the dissolution of the principality of Anhalt in 1603. This mini state was elevated to the rank of a duchy in 1806 and merged with some other states to form a united Anhalt again in 1863. The borders were roughly identical to the present district.

Geography

The small district of Bernburg is located in the historical region of Anhalt. The Saale River crosses the district from south to north.

Coat of arms
