The history o the region is connectit tae the ceety o Munich.
The destrict wis established in 1852 an unnerwent several chynges due tae the ongoin incorporation o municipalities intae the ceety o Munich. In 1972 the constant shrinkin o the destrict wis compensatit bi addin nine municipalities frae the umwhile deistrict o Wolfratshausen.
