Melk District, Administrative district in Lower Austria, Austria
The Melk District extends across varied landscapes between the Danube River and the foothills of the Alps in Lower Austria.
The district administration system originated in 1849 under Franz Joseph I and received formal implementation through specific guidelines in 1868.
The district offices coordinate essential government services including marriage licenses, passports, hunting permits, and public health matters for local communities.
As a second-level administrative division, the Melk District manages regulatory matters for multiple municipalities through its district commission office.
District governors receive appointments from provincial governors and supervise civil servants who execute administrative tasks for ten to thirty municipalities.
