The division was first formed on 1 July 1917 at the Eastern Front, where they fought until the finalisation of the Peace Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. Following the peace treaty and the end of World War I, they continued to function as an occupying force in Ukraine. The final units of the troop returned therefrom to their homes on 16 May 1919 and were subsequently demobilised and finally disbanded.
