Verbandsgemeinde

 

Verbandsgemeinde

A Verbandsgemeinde (plural Verbandsgemeinden) is an administrative unit unique to the German Bundesland (federal state) of Rhineland-Palatinate. There are 163 Verbandsgemeinden, which are grouped into the 24 districts and subdivided into nearly 2200 Ortsgemeinden.

The most of the Verbandsgemeinden were built in 1969. Formerly the name of the administrative units was Amt.

Other German states have similar administrative units; see: Amt, Samtgemeinde or Verwaltungsgemeinschaft.
