Editing Wolfsburg (section)

==Organization==
The city of Wolfsburg is organized into 41 districts. One or more districts make up one of the total of 16 localities which are represented by their own councils. Every council has a local official as its mayor.

First the councils were only established in the 11 localities annexed in 1972. They partly took over the functions of the former city councils of each of the districts. In 1991 and 2001 some of the localities were split into smaller areas so that today there are 16 localities, each with its own council which are directly elected by the citizens.

The only exception from this organization is the [[Allerpark]] (''Aller Park''), a local recreation area surrounding the [[Allersee]] lake, and the area of the Volkswagen factory which are both located in the central city area.

The administrative area of Wolfsburg includes six [[nature reserve]]s. Five of them are located in the ancient Aller river valley.
