Okresní úřad Vsetín

partly accessible The District Governor's Office, later the District Office, in Vsetín was established as the first instance of political administration in 1909. The office kept population records, dealt with the association approval and supervision agenda, and issued trade concessions. The office was headed by the district governor. In 1945, the District National Committee was established and the District Office therefore ceased to exist. Baletka L. – Mikula J.: Okresní úřad Vsetín – Presidiální spisy. Díl I. 1909-1918.
