Amt* Travemünde
Travemünde was settled on the west bank of the Trave River in the early 13th century, quickly grew into a full-fledged port city, and became the sole property of Lübeck in 1329. Priwall peninsula on the opposite bank was functionally part of the city, but some sources recognize the claim of Mecklenburg-Schwerin as late as 1803. (I do not.) In 1852, Amt Travemünde was created out of the city itself and several villages that had been part of the Bishopric of Lübeck prior to 1803. I apply the term “Amt* Travemünde” retroactively to all of that territory. (The * signifies the retroactive nature of the use the term “Amt”. Wikipedia places the villages of Gericht Kücknitz in the Amt, but I ignore that.)
