History

The arrondissement of Guebwiller was created in 1919.[3] It was disbanded in 2015.[1] As a result of the reorganisation of the cantons of France which came into effect in 2015, the borders of the cantons are no longer related to the borders of the arrondissements. The cantons of the arrondissement of Guebwiller were, as of January 2015:[2]

  1. Ensisheim
  2. Guebwiller
  3. Rouffach
  4. Soultz-Haut-Rhin

gollark: So also according to Wikipedia, the core is 89% iron.
gollark: The crust is apparently 46% oxygen.
