History: On the basis of the new Saxon Trade Regulations of 15 October 1861, the Leipzig Chamber of Commerce and Industry was constituted on 2 August 1962. In 1868 it was divided into a Chamber of Commerce (responsible for trade and factories) and a Chamber of Commerce (responsible for crafts, small trade and commerce), which conducted their business independently of each other in Leipzig. The chamber of commerce was responsible for the area of the city and the district administration of Leipzig. Between 1933 and 1935, in addition to being subordinated to the Reich Ministry of Economics, the company was also renamed the Chamber of Crafts, whose jurisdiction was extended to include the district administration of Leipzig. The Chamber of Industry and Commerce was given supervision of the retail trade and commerce.<br />1942 a Gauwirtschaftskammer Sachsen was established under the authority of the Reich Ministry of Economics. The Leipzig Chamber of Crafts was transformed into a branch of the Gauwirtschaftskammer, Department of Crafts. It was loosely assigned to the Chamber of Commerce. The dissolution took place on 31 January 1946. From the foundation to the dissolution, the most important tasks included the representation of the interests of private traders and tradespeople as well as the preparation of expert opinions.<br />The inventory also includes documents from the successor institutions of the Leipzig Chamber of Skilled Crafts, branch office of the Leipzig Chamber of Commerce, Department of Skilled Crafts, Chamber of Skilled Crafts for the Federal State of Saxony, branch office Leipzig, Leipzig District Chamber of Skilled Crafts, Leipzig District Chamber of Skilled Crafts, Leipzig District Office and Leipzig District Chamber of Skilled Crafted Crafts.<br /><br />Content: Organisation of Skilled Crafts and Trade.- Personal.- Meisterwesen.- Lehrlingswesen und Gesellenwesen.- Innungen.- Beiträge.- Beihilfen, Unterstützungen.- Schiedsgerichte.- Wirtschaftsförderung.<br /><br /> Detailed introduction: Geschichte der Gewerbekammer Leipzig<br /><br />On August 2, 1862, the Leipzig Chamber of Commerce and Industry was formed on the basis of the Saxon Gewerbegesetz of October 15, 1861, as an economic interest grouping for the trade and industry. In Saxony, apart from the Chamber in Leipzig, chambers of commerce were established in Dresden, Chemnitz, Plauen and Zittau. They were to serve as expert representative bodies of the Ministry of the Interior in matters of industry, trade and commerce, representing the Ministry's interests and independently submitting applications to the Ministry. The chambers were divided into two sections: The Chamber of Commerce was responsible for trade and factories, the Chamber of Commerce for trade. The implementing ordinances to §§ 112 to 125 of the Gewerbegesetz (Trade and Industry Act) established the administrative district of Leipzig, with the exception of the administrative districts of Penig, Burgstädt, Rochlitz and Mittweida, as the official area for the Leipzig Chamber of Commerce and Industry. In addition, there was the Großenhain district.<br /><br />The 1868 amendment to the Gewerbegesetznovelle introduced a change in the organization of the Saxon Chambers of Commerce and Industry. The law's Implementing Ordinance stipulated that the Leipzig Chamber of Commerce and Trade should form completely separate colleges. At the same time, the chamber district, which now included the districts of the court offices Leipzig I and II, was restricted. <br /><br />1869 the chambers were separated in Leipzig.<a href="#B01"> <sup id="A01">[01]</sup></a> The constituent meeting of the Leipzig Chamber of Commerce was on 6 November 1968. There were now two independent chambers, whereby the Chamber of Commerce was responsible for looking after the craft trades, the retail trade and the trade. These were mainly low-income enterprises.<a href="#B02"> <sup id="A02">[02]</sup></a> However, close cooperation between the chambers remained.<a href="#B03"> <sup id="A03">[03]</sup></a> The allocation of members was based on the respective annual income or The limits changed in the course of the years.<br /><br /> Due to the Craftsmen Act of 26 July 1897 (Reichsgesetzblatt 1897, No. 37), the tasks of the chambers of commerce expanded. They had to exercise the rights and duties of the Chamber of Crafts. The Leipzig Chamber of Trade had 15 - 18 members and was responsible for the territory of the City of Leipzig, the Leipzig administrative government and from 1908 also for the Borna, Grimma and Oschatz administrative government.<br /><br />Since 1876 there were permanent committees for certain areas of activity, e.g. for elections, finance and trade legislation. The chambers of commerce promoted the activities of the guilds. In 1886 there were 63 guilds in the jurisdiction. In 1919, 41,571 craftsmen and tradespeople were subject to contributions to the Leipzig Chamber.<br /><br />1935 the Chamber of Trade was converted into the Chamber of Crafts and Trades and subordinated to the Reich Ministry of Economics.<a href="#B05"> <sup id="A05">[05]</sup></a> It was now responsible for the territory of the Leipzig District Council. The former president of the Chamber of Commerce Max Heinzelmann<a href="#B06"> <sup id="A06">[06]</sup></a> took over the presidency, and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Leipzig, which emerged from the Chamber of Commerce in 1929, took over the care of trade and commerce. At that time, 54,000 companies were liable to contribute to the Leipzig Chamber of Commerce. 150 guilds and six district craftsmen's associations were under their supervision. In July 1938, the
