- Administrative/biographical history:
- When the Landdrostei Stade was founded as an administrative district within the Kingdom of Hanover in 1823, it included three historical territories: the Duchy of Bremen, the Duchy of Verden and the “Land Hadeln”. After Hanover was annexed by Prussia in 1867, the Landdrostei continued to exist until 1885, when it was reorganised as the new governmental (or administrative) district of Stade. In 1937, the city of Cuxhaven became part of this administrative district and therefore part of the province of Hanover. Other minor territorial changes also took place in the 1920s and 1930s. After the Second World War the district was part of the British zone of occupation and later became part of the state of Lower Saxony within the Federal Republic of Germany. In 1978, following administrative changes in the districts of Lower Saxony during which the Stade district lost larger parts of its territory, the remaining parts were incorporated into the administrative district of Lüneburg. The Lüneburg district was dissolved in 2004 like all other administrative districts of the same level (Regierungsbezirke) in Lower Saxony.
