Kreis Czarnikau

Kreis Czarnikau was one of many Kreise (counties) in Regierungsbezirk Bromberg, in the Prussian Province of Posen.

The district area became part of Prussia after the First Partition of Poland in 1772.

The area north of the Netze remained in Germany and became part of the Netzekreis in the new province of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia.

The Czarnikau district had a German majority population and a large Polish minority.
