History: In 1874, the Plauen administrative district was formed from the districts of the Plauen, Pausa, Elsterberg and Reichenbach court offices. It was supervised by the Zwickau district administration. The official head office included the towns of Elsterberg, Reichenbach, Mühltroff, Mylau, Netzschkau, Pausa and Plauen as well as the municipalities of Altensalz, Berglas, Brand, Brockau, Brunn, Chrieschwitz, Christgrün, Coschütz, Cunersdorf b.

The city of Plauen was spun off in 1907, the city of Reichenbach in 1924. They achieved the status of an independent administrative district.<br />The official administrative organization existed with minor changes until 1945. The tasks were taken over by the District Council Plauen. In 1952, the area of Plauen was divided into the districts of Greiz, Plauen, Reichenbach, Schleiz and Zeulenroda as well as the city district of Plauen.<br />For further information, see the introduction to the tectonic group 02.03.03.03.<br />The inventory also contains documents of the patrimonial courts Christgrün, Coschütz, Geilsdorf, Jößnitz, Kleingera, Liebau, Mißlareuth, Mühltroff, Mylau, Neundorf, Noßwitz, Oberlosa, Pirk, Pöhl, Reichenbach, Reinsdorf, Reusa, Ruppertsgrün, Schneckengrün, Schwand, Thoßfell and Thürnhof, the Plauen office, the Elsterberg, Markneukirchen, Oelsnitz, Pausa, Plauen and Reichenbach court offices and the Plauen district council.<br /><br />Content: Organisation of judicial and administrative authorities.- Personnel.files.- Relationships.with.foreign.states.- Military.matters.- War.matters.- Financial.matters.- Citizenship.matters.- Church.affairs.- Community.affairs.- Poor.affairs.- Social.welfare.affairs.- Medical.affairs.- Health.affairs.- Security.Police.- Moral.Police.- Fire.Police.- Agricultural.Affairs.- Forestry.Affairs.- Hunting.affairs.- Fisheries.Affairs.- Commercial.Affairs.- Mining.Affairs.- Construction.Matters.- Water Police Matters - Railway Matters - Civil Status Matters - Insurances - District Association of the Official Headquarters.<br /><br />Comprehensive Introduction: 1st History of the Official Headquarters[01]<br />Already during the establishment of the court offices in 1856, a future separation of the judiciary and the administration and a changed organization of the 14 official headquarters had been envisaged. The extraordinarily rapid boom of the Saxon economy in the age of industrialization and the associated rapid population growth made it necessary to intensify and differentiate the administrative activities in the local administration. Therefore, in 1874 the judiciary and administration were separated in the local instance as well. The court offices kept only the judiciary; from 1879 they were called district courts. In 1874, the administrative tasks of the court offices were transferred to 25 new official authorities, which at the same time took over the business of the previous 14 official authorities and the road and hydraulic engineering commissions. Until 1874 only one scribe had stood by the side of each governor. Now the official captains became fully trained authorities, which were each occupied by an official captain, one or more lawyers, one or more secretaries and several travel agents. The officials belonged first mostly to the nobility. Only in the 20th century did the share of the bourgeois predominate.<br />The administrative authorities were the lower administrative authority in all matters for which there were no special authorities. They supervised all municipalities with the exception of the large cities of Dresden, Leipzig and Chemnitz. Above all, they supervised the local police administration and, in some cases, exercised it themselves, insofar as it was not left to the municipalities. In addition to the security police, police matters dependent on the official police also included the provision of care for the poor and medical care, the supervision of trade and industry, agriculture and forestry, the building and fire police, insurance matters and savings banks, as well as citizenship matters and civil status. The official authorities were also responsible for financial and military matters, but only to the extent that they fell within the remit of the Ministry of the Interior. The older officials before 1874, on the other hand, had worked for the departments of several ministries.<br />An essential innovation characteristic of the bourgeois constitutional state was the fact that each official head formed a self-governing association, the district association. The district association was represented by the district assembly, which met on district days. The governor appointed the district conference at least once a year, chaired it and chaired the negotiations. The District Assembly was not a People's Assembly, but consisted of one third elected representatives of the highest taxpayers with an annual tax payment of 100 Taler and two thirds deputies of the towns and rural communities in the district. The district assembly could decide on facilities and expenses for charitable purposes and for this purpose decompose the district's assets, raise bonds and burden the district with taxes. It issued the district budget, managed the district assets, could submit applications to higher authorities, and could commission commissions or individuals for district purposes. The District Assembly elected the members of the District Committee and the District Committee. The District Committee, chaired by the Governor, consisted of at least 8 members. Each committee had to include at least two representatives of the most heavily taxed, two of the cities and two of the rural municipalities. The District Committee was attached to the Governor in order to participate in certain decisions or to serve him as an advisory body. The District Committee was called upon to decide, inter alia, on administrative and judicial matters relating to the residence for support and the obligations to provide for the poor, electoral complaints, disputes concerning contributions to the district and to the municipalities, applications for commercial and licensing licences, the creation of new public roads and certain land matters. The district committee was consulted for advice on general police measures in the district, on negotiations about state aid for road construction in the municipalities, on applications for the correction of watercourses and in a number of other cases prescribed or demanded by the superior authority or desired by the district governor.<br />In each district governorate, the district governor and a district school inspector together formed the district school inspection. This was a special authority, separate from the official government.[02] Unlike the official government, it was not subject to the Ministry of the Interior, but to the Ministry of Culture and Public Education (since 1923 Ministry of National Education). The files were processed both by the district governor and the district school inspector and were then kept with the registry of the district administration. Before 1874, school matters, together with church matters, had been dealt with by the Superintendent and a secular authority (office, city council, patrimonial court, from 1856 court office) in the church and school inspections. After the First World War, the district school inspectorates were called district school boards, the district school inspectors district school councils.<br />The superior authorities of the district governorates were the four district governorates, which in turn were headed by the Ministry of the Interior. Since 1874 there have been the following official teams:<br />- in the area of the district administration of Bautzen: Bautzen, Kamenz, Löbau, Zittau<br />- in the area of the Kreishauptmannschaft Dresden: Dresden, Dippoldiswalde, Freiberg, Großenhain, Meißen, Pirna<br />- in the area of the Kreishauptmannschaft Leipzig: Leipzig, Borna, Döbeln, Grimma, Oschatz, Rochlitz<br />- in the area of the Kreishauptmannschaft Zwickau: Annaberg, Auerbach, Chemnitz, Flöha, Marienberg, Oelsnitz, Plauen, Schwarzenberg, Zwickau<br />In the particularly large official teams of Dresden, Pirna, Freiberg and Zwickau there were official delegations in Döhlen, Schandau, Sayda and Crimmitschau. These delegations were branch-offices of the Headquarters, but not separate authorities. The delegations in Crimmitschau, Schandau and Döhlen existed only for a few years, the delegation in Sayda, on the other hand, existed for decades until 1939.<br />1878, the Schönburg reign of power was completely integrated into the Saxon state. They formed the Glauchau official headquarters, while smaller parts fell to the Zwickau and Schwarzenberg official headquarters.<br />1880 the Dresden official headquarters was divided into two official headquarters, Dresden-Altstadt and Dresden-Neustadt, which were reunited in 1924.<br />In 1900 a new district administration team Chemnitz was separated from the district administration team Zwickau with the district administrations Chemnitz, Annaberg, Flöha, Glauchau and Marienberg.<br />1910 the district administration team Stollberg was created by separation from the district administration team Chemnitz.<br />In Werdau a branch office of the district administration team was founded in 1919, which was subordinate to the district administration team Zwickau. This branch office was raised already in 1920 to an independent office head team, which was united however 1933 again with Zwickau.<br />The district head team Bautzen was abolished 1932 and united with Dresden.<br />1939 the names office head team and district head team were replaced by the names now standardized in the whole German realm circle (district or city circle) and administrative district. The district governor and the district governor were named Landrat and Regierungspräsident respectively. Their authorities were also given this designation, tailored to an individual person, because under the conditions of the authoritarian regime, in accordance with the Führer Principle, it was not the anonymous authority but the responsible head of authority who was to be decisive.<br />After 1945, the subordinate authorities of the internal administration were no longer referred to as the district administrator, but as the council of the district, as had occasionally been the case since 1943. The classification of the administrative districts remained essentially unchanged for the time being. The district of Stollberg was dissolved in 1950 and distributed among the neighbouring districts. In 1951 the district of Aue (formerly Schwarzenberg) was restructured into the two districts of Aue and Schwarzenberg and the two city districts of Johanngeorgenstadt and Schneeberg due to its rapid economic upswing and strong population growth due to ore mining. The three districts of Dresden, Leipzig and Chemnitz (since 1953 Karl-Marx-Stadt) took its place, including neighbouring areas of the former states of Thuringia, Saxony-Anhalt and Silesia. A new circle division was also carried out. In the district of Dresden, 15 rural districts and 2 urban districts were formed, in the district of Leipzig 12 rural districts and one urban district and in the district of Chemnitz / Karl-Marx-Stadt 21 rural districts and 5 urban districts (together 48 rural districts and 8 urban districts) were formed. The new districts were considerably smaller and therefore more numerous than the district authorities and their successor districts, so that a greater proximity of the district authorities to the population was achieved.<br /><br /><br />>2. History of the district authorities Plauen[03]<br />>The district authorities Plauen was established in 1874 from villages of the court offices Elsterberg, Pausa, Plauen and Reichenbach. It belonged to the Zwickau district administration. The official headquarters comprised an area of about 510 km2 in the southwest of Saxony, partly along the border to Franconia/Bavaria.<br />While the area remained almost unchanged, the population increased steadily until the First World War, then only in the 1920s did it return to the pre-1914 level.<br />A well-developed road and railway network connected the individual towns with each other and with the neighbouring areas. One example is the Dresden - Plauen - Hof railway line, which connects the Plauen government with the Saxon state capital of Dresden and Franconia.<br /><br />The following places belonged to the Plauen official headquarters[04] : Altensalz, Barthmühle, Berglas, Brockau, Brunn, Burgstein, Chrieschwitz, Christgrün, Coschütz (with Feldwiese, Rückisch, Thürnhof), Cunsdorf near Elsterberg, Cunsdorf near Reichenbach, Dehles, Demeusel, Drochaus, Dröswein, Ebersgrün, Elsterberg (with rib), Fasendorf, Foschenroda, Friesen, Gansgrün, Geilsdorf, Görschnitz[05] , Grobau (with fire, Stöckigt), Großfriesen, Großzöbern, Gutenfürst, Haselbrunn, Hauptmannsgrün, Helmsgrün (with Rodlera), Jocketa, Jößnitz, Kauschwitz, Kemnitz, Kleinfriesen, Kleingera (with panhandle, Reuth), Kleinzöbern, Kloschwitz, Kobitzschwalde, Kornbach, Krebes (with Kandelhof, Schwarzenreuth), Kröstau, Kürbitz, Lambzig, Langenbach, Langenbuch, Lauschgrün, Leubnitz, Liebau, Linda, Losa (with Wipplas), Mechelgrün, Mehltheuer, Meßbach, Mißlareuth, Möschwitz, Mühltroff, Mylau, Netzschkau, Neudörfel, Neuensalz, Neundorf, Noßwitz (with Sachswitz sächs. Anteil[06] ), Oberheinsdorf, Oberlosa, Obermylau, Oberneumark, Oberpirk, Oberreichenau, Oberreichenbach, Oberweischlitz (with Rosenberg, Laneckhaus), Pansdorf, Pausa, Pirk (with Türbel), Plauen, Pöhl, Ranspach, Reichenbach, Reimersgrün, Reinhardtswalde, Reinsdorf, Reißig, Reusa (with Sorga, Tauschwitz), Reuth bei Elsterberg, Reuth bei Plauen, Rodau, Rodersdorf, Römersdorf, Rößnitz, Rotschau, Röttis (with Lochhaus and Pfaffenhaus), Ruderitz, Ruppertsgrün (with Rentzschmühle), Schneckengrün, Schneidenbach, Scholas, Schönberg, Schönlind, Schwand, Steins, Steinsdorf, Stelzen (sächs. Stöckigt near Plauen, Straßberg, Syrau, Theuma, Thierbach, Thiergarten, Thossen, Thoßfell, Tobertitz, Tremnitz, Trieb, Unterheinsdorf, Unterlosa, Unterpirk, Unterreichenau, Unterweischlitz, Voigtsgrün, Wallengrün, Zobes, Zschockau and Zwoschwitz. a. even higher educational institutions, various technical, commercial, trade and vocational schools, the Saxon Weights and Measures Office, the Regional and Local Courts, the Surveying, Road and Hydraulic Engineering Office, the Tax Office, the Main Customs Office, the Employment Office as well as various Post Office and Reich Railway Offices. The lace, embroidery, curtain, trowel and tambour industry, dye works, bleaching and finishing plants, twisting and ready-made garments, dressing material and cotton spinning mills, embroidery machines, leather, paper and cardboard manufacturing not only shaped the image of the city of Plauen, but also the entire area of the official administration. The natural beauties of this area attracted nature and homeland lovers and helped to the emergence of a tourism industry.<br /><br />1907 the city of Plauen[08] , 1924 the city of Reichenbach was spun off from the administrative district. In 1920 the municipalities of Altrottmannsdorf, Erlmühle, Neumark, Schönbach, Römersgrün and Unterneumark had to be handed over to the newly formed official authority of Werdau.09] In the course of the new border definitions between Thuringia and Saxony, there were some territorial changes in 1928: the administrative authorities lost the districts of Stelzen (the municipality of Reuth) and Sachswitz (the city of Elsterberg) as well as the corridor of the municipality of Noßwitz and in return received the corridor of Caselwitz and parts of the municipalities of Schönbach, Görschnitz and Spielmes.<br />1952, the area of the official headquarters / (rural) district Plauen was divided into the newly formed districts Greiz, Plauen, Reichenbach, Schleiz and Zeulenroda as well as the urban district Plauen.<br /><br />The official headquarters building was located in Plauen, Neundorfer Strasse 96. At the head of the authority were:<br />1874 - 1876 Otto Theodor Meusel<br />1877 - 1880 Johann Theodor Schmiedel<br />1880 - 1892 Johann Georg Freiherr von Welck<br />1892 - 1900 Adolf Maximilian von Polenz<br />1901 - 1905 Dr. Rudolf von Oppen<br />1905 - 1909 Dr. Hermann Walter Junck<br />1909 - 1919 Dr. Wilhelm Maximilian Mehnert<br />1919 - 1944 Alfred Beschorner<br />1944 - 1945 Dr. Bernhard Müller<br />(Klein, Deutsche Verwaltungsgeschichte Bd. 14 Sachsen, p. 404 f.)3. Inventory history and inventory analysis <br />The inventory of the Plauen administrative district was transferred to the Saxon State Archive/Hauptstaatsarchiv Dresden in two major deliveries in 1951 and 1996, supplemented by contributions from the Historical Archive of the Vogtlandkreis (2001) and the Chemnitz Regional Council (2008). After completion of the processing, the holdings comprise over 90 linear metres of files, approx. 400 maps/plans and approx. 370 b/w photos from the period from 1816 to 1973.<br />Individual volumes of files have been issued and incorporated by the predecessor authorities of the administrative government since 1856 or by the offices. If the file volumes have already been completed with the predecessor authorities, these are explicitly listed as provenance points in the finding aid book. The situation is different with the files, which were created there, but closed at the Plauen office. Here, the preliminary provenances are only recorded in the database of directories, but are not shown in the index.<br />The processing essentially took place in 1974; subsequent order and directories work led to a final processing in 1996/1997. The archive plan for the "Amtshauptmannschaften von 1874" has been used as an order scheme and has been considerably extended according to the existing files. Following the 2009 conversion, the very extensive and in part very deep and confusing classification was adapted to the standard classification for official headquarters teams[10].<br /><br />This database contains important documents on industrial and traffic development in the district of the former official headquarters team Plauen. In addition, there are also references to local and regional history, to environmental issues and to the relationship between Saxony and Bavaria as well as to the principalities of Reuß ä. L. and Reuß j. L..<br /><br />The present finding aid book is the result of a conversion (2008) of the handwritten find index from the years 1974, 1997.<br />The aim of the conversion was to improve the search possibilities by entering it into the indexing database Augias-Archiv. The handwritten information was transferred into digital form without any significant change in content. The terminology used in the search index of 1974/1997, which also reflects the social conditions at the time of processing, thus remained unaffected. This applies both to the individual units of description and to the introduction to the find book. Adjustments to the file titles of a series of volumes and other additions without the files being consulted were indicated by square brackets. A - technically desirable - revision cannot take place at present due to capacity reasons.<br />The units of registration have been assigned to the unit classification available for the official headquarters in the Chemnitz State Archives. In doing so, it was essentially oriented on the allocation to the classification groups of 1974/1997, but sometimes corrected on the basis of the file numbers. The original classification was transferred to the database Augias-Archiv and can be displayed there.<br />Additional to the old index of finds, files are also listed in this index, which were handed over between 2001 and 2008 by the Historical Archive of the Vogtlandkreis and the Regierungspräsidium Chemnitz. In 2016, further fire insurance registers were added to the collection from the collection 39077 Fire Insurance Chamber and State Insurance of the GDR. <br />The present find book is therefore only a very limited result of a new processing; it essentially reflects the processing status of 1997. The individual units of dilution are sorted by runtime within the classification points. Location-related files are sorted alphabetically according to location and then according to duration in the find book.<br /><br />Additional reference is made to the following holdings in the Chemnitz State Archives:<br />33021 Gerichtsamt Elsterberg 1853 - 1873 (if applicable 30108 Local Court Elsterberg)<br />33032 Court office Pausa 1825 - 1943 (if applicable 30130 Local Court Pausa)<br />33033 Court office Plauen 1848 - 1876 (if applicable 30131 Local Court Plauen)<br />33034 Court office Reichenbach 1828 - 1973 (if applicable 30132 District Court Reichenbach)<br />33045 Older District Council Plauen 1813 - 1874<br />30040 District Council Zwickau 1842 - 1944<br />30409 District Council Plauen 1945 - 1952<br />30363 District School Office Plauen 1837 - 1947<br />Overview of offices, manors and special administrations<br /><br />4.
