The voting group was reorganized by a decision of the state parliament from 2011 and used for the first time for the 2013 state election. It emerged from the largest parts of the previous circles Kulmbach and Wunsiedel in the Fichtelgebirge. The merger was necessary by reducing the vocal circles in Upper Franconia from nine to eight. However, this was sharply criticized, so that the districts of Kulmbach and Wunsiedel as well as the Bavarian Greens complained. However, the Bavarian Constitutional Court rejected the lawsuit, so that the division of the upcoming election is valid for the first time. Due to its geographical form, the constituency is popular as Dog tech designated. [2]
