19th century
The Amt Nürtingen, an Oberamt (district) since 1758, was expanded in 1807, one year after the founding of the Kingdom of Württemberg, to include the Oberamt Neuffen as part of the new administrative structure of Württemberg. In 1859, Nürtingen was connected to the network of the Royal Württemberg State Railways via the Plochingen–Immendingen railway line. Thus, the Oberamt town of Nürtingen developed into an industrial town towards the end of the 19th century.
