It was formerly known as Wilhelmstal (William’s Valley) and was named after Emperor Wilhelm II.
During the German colonial period from the 1890s to 1918 the area was
popular with settlers, hence the German place name of Wilhelmstal.
Large farms and plantations were created, and the district was valued
for its pleasant mountain climate. Numerous church missions were, and
remain, active.
Between 1893 and 1911 the German Ostafrikanische Eisenbahngesellschaft
(East African Railway Company) constructed an important railway line
starting at Tanga on the coast and passing along the Usambara Mountains
with a station at Mombo, about 20 kilometers (12 mi) from Wilhelmstal,
to “New” Moshi at Kilimanjaro.
The initial plan of the Usambarabahn was to connect the port of Tanga
with Lake Victoria by passing south of the Usambara Mountains. This was
in direct competition with parallel British efforts in colonial Kenya.
From 4 June 1912 to 12 May 1913 the line was renamed Nordbahn(Northern
Railway).
According to the 2002 Tanzania National Census, the population of the
Lushoto District was 419,970.[1] By 2012, the population had increased
to 492,441.
