History

Higashichikuma -gun came into being on January 14, 1879 by division of the old Chikuma -gun in Higashichikuma -gun and Nishichikuma -gun ( since 1968, Kiso -gun renamed). Administrative headquarters was initially Matsumoto. With the establishment of the modern municipal system Higashichikuma -gun had since April 1st 1889 a city ( Matsumoto ) and 37 villages. On May 1, 1907 Matsumoto was a major city and thus separated from Higashichikuma -gun. On April 1, 1927, the village became a town Shiojiri. In 1950 Higashichikuma -gun belonged to a town and 35 villages. In the wake of the great territorial reform of the 50s, the number of municipalities decreased significantly. On April 1, 1959 Shiojiri was a major city and thus separated from Higashichikuma -gun. In 1960 Higashichikuma -gun belonged to only one town and 11 villages. The current number of municipalities has Higashichikuma -gun since March 31, 2010.
