The districts of cities and municipalities in Saxony-Anhalt can also use their names in the regional language Low German in addition to their district name. This is made clear by a circular issued by the Ministry of the Interior and Sport, which came into force at the beginning of June 2023. Parts of towns and municipalities can be given the Low German designation if, in the time before a territorial change as a former municipality, the Low German designation is demonstrably rooted in linguistic history or can be traced back to historical events.
