Neuamt
Neuamt was a bailiwick ("Obervogtei") of the Zürichgau, a subject territory of Zürich within the Old Swiss Confederacy, from 1442 to 1798. The bailiwick was detached from the County of Kyburg as the latter was given to emperor Frederick III to ensure his support in the Old Zürich War. The territories of Kyburg left of the Glatt river were retained by Zürich, and were not re-attached to Kyburg when the county was re-purchased from the Habsburg ten years later. The bailiwick was administered by two reeves (Obervögte) residing in Zürich. The former bailiwick now forms part of  the Zürcher Unterland within the canton of Zürich, forming a strip of land west of the Glatt river with a width between tree and ten kilometres, including territory now in the municipalities of: Weiach, Stadel, Neerach, Hochfelden, Höri, Niederglatt, Niederhasli, Regensdorf (Adlikon). Ennethöri was a settlement east of the Glatt, attached to the Neuamt in 1667/89.
