Fonds Sächsisches Staatsarchiv, 10719 - 10719 Saxon Legation for Prussia / to the German Reich, Berlin

158,70 (nur lfm)

History: A Saxon legation to the Kingdom of Prussia was established at the beginning of the 18th century. It continued to exist unchanged after Saxony's accession to the North German Confederation in 1867. The establishment of the German Reich in 1871 led to an increased importance of the Saxon legation in Berlin, since it took over the representation of Saxony's interests at the Reich. From 1920 to 1934, the Saxon envoy in Berlin also represented Saxony's military interests in the Reich. The legation was dissolved in 1936/1944.<br /><br />For further information see 2.3.2 Foreign Affairs<br /><br />Content: I.

However, the growth of the legation duties after the establishment of the North German Confederation required the division into titles and the drawing up of a file plan, which initially took place in 1867 for the so-called business affairs (No. 737-1131). Political reports continued to be kept on an annual basis (No 221-273). It was not until 1914 and 1918, respectively, that they were also divided up according to titles (no. 274-736).<br />Aside from this group of the actual "Gesandtschaftsangelegenheiten" (formerly Aktenplan G), another department had already entered in 1867: The registry of the authorised representative to the Federal Council (formerly Aktenplan B). In addition, there were those of the authorized representative of the Saxon Ministry of Finance to the Federal Council and the representative of military interests to the Reich (formerly Aktenplan E).<br />The reorganization carried out in the present directory is based on the principle that the greatest possible protection of the groups resulting from the establishment and operation of the authorities also means the best possible usability. Although the indicated division into "Departments" was not fully maintained later, i.e. especially after 1918, so that, for example, processes from the hand of the former military representative partly also appear under the section Military Affairs of the Federal and Reich Council Matters, the existing division has been retained, namely because only in this way the valuable aid of the registrants and registers to the registrants (No. 1-121) remains usable. The fact that files on the same subject matter now have to be searched more under different departments (e.g. Federal Council Plenipotentiary, Military Plenipotentiary, etc.) is taken into account by references. For a better overview a keyword index is attached. All names of places and persons are included in this list; subject matters only if they cannot be assumed under the respective heading.<br />Within the six large groups, shifts have been made to a greater extent. The 1867/70 file plan did not provide any space for a number of subject areas which did not become more important until after 1918; for this reason, new procedures are often provisionally classified under related subject areas (e.g. procedures of a socio-political nature under trade matters, housing care under medical affairs, etc.). Unevenness of this kind is eliminated by inserting new sections. The sections "War and post-war economy" and "Social legislation" have been completely restructured. The "Customs and Trade Contracts" as well as the "Authorized Representative of the Saxon Ministry of Finance to the Bundesrat" have also undergone a major rearrangement.<br />The files of the Berlin legation have mainly reached the Main State Archives at three different times. The older files (No. 131-209) were filed in 1881 (HStA Reg. 578/81), insofar as they had not previously been brought here in the form of smaller levies. They were removed from the locates during the reorganization and relocated. The second large delivery took place in August 1935 (HStA Reg. 444b/35) and comprised 226 packages. The third and last delivery took place in October 1936 (HStA Reg. 915/36). The entire consecutively numbered collection is stored in the magazine.<br /><br />Dresden, 2 May 1939 Horst Schlechte<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Nachbemerkung<br /><br />>The find book compiled by Horst Schlechte and the find book on the archival records handed over to the Dresden State Archives by the Geheimes Staatsarchiv Preußischer Kulturbesitz in 1987 were retroconverted in 2012.<br />The following signatures are now missing from the 1939 existing files of the inventory:<br /><br />No. 13, input and output registers, 1863<br />No. 14, Entry and Exit Registrands, 1864<br />No. 165, Reports, 1848<br />No. 184, Political Correspondence, 1858<br />No. 231, Political Reports or Affairs, Vol. 11, 1877<br />No. 232, Political Reports or Affairs, Vol. 12, 1878<br />No. 232, Political Reports or Affairs, Vol. 1878<br />No. 231, Political Reports or Affairs, Vol. 11, 1877<br />No. 232, Political Reports or Affairs, Vol. 12, 1878<br />No. 232, Political Reports or Affairs, Vol. 232, Political Reports or Affairs, Vol. 12, Vol. 245, Resignation of Reich Chancellor Bismarck, 1890<br />No. 589, Migration of the Swiss Embroidery Industry to Germany, 1919-1923<br />No. 590, Sneak Trade in French Sockets and Lace, 1919-1924<br />No. 597, Transitional Economy for the Leather Industry, Vol. 2, 1934<br />No. 589, Switzerland's Embroidery Industry to Germany, 1919-1923<br />No. 597, Transitional Economy for the Leather Industry, Vol. 2, 1934<br />No. 589 640, Economic Intelligence Service, Commercial Espionage, vol. 1, 1919-1921<br />no. 641, Economic Intelligence Service, Commercial Espionage, vol. 2, 1922-1933<br />no. 660, Treuhand GmbH for accommodation of the Dutch credit, 1920-1921<br />no. 685, Authorization of the Bundesrat to take economic measures for the transitional economy, 1918<br />No. 714-717, Restoration of the German merchant fleet, Vol. 1-4, 1917-1928<br />No. 718-719, Reedereiabfindungsvertrag, Vol. 1-2, 1921-1923<br />No. 720, Gesellschaft zur Förderung von Seeverkehr und Weltwirtschat, 1916-1920<br />No. 721, Sozialisierung der Industriebetriebe, 1918-1920<br />No. 722, Sozialisierungsgesetz, 1919-1920<br />No. 723, Kommunalisierung der Wirtschaftsbetriebe (Reichsrahmengesetz), 1919-1921<br />No. 724, Sozialisierung des Bergbaus, 1920<br />Nr. 760, Award of Titles and Predicates, vol. 1, 1879-1909<br />No. 761, Award of Titles and Predicates, vol. 2, 1910-1917<br />No. 856, Anschluss Deutsch-Österreichs an das Deutsche Reich, vol. 1<br />No. 947, Deutsche Siedlungsbank, 1930-1933<br />No. 1149, Requests for Naturalisation.
