On the history of the authorities: From the Reichsdeputationshauptschluß of 1803, the territory of Württemberg up to the Treaties of Compiegne and Paris was subject to constant transformation and expansion. On May 1810, Württemberg concluded a treaty with Bavaria in Paris, which reorganized the course of the border between the two states and established a related exchange of territories. A new border line was drawn from Lake Constance to the Waldmannshofen (SHA) marking line, which ran along the rivers Iller and Tauber as far as possible. In addition to the former imperial cities of Bopfingen, Buchhorn and Ulm, Württemberg received from Bavaria all Bavarian regional courts or parts of regional courts located west of the new border (e.g. the "Landgerichtsteile"): Tettnang, Wangen, Ravensburg, Leutkirch, Söflingen, Albeck and Crailsheim). The eastern offices of Gebsattel and Weiltingen were transferred to Bavaria. On 28 October 1810, King Frederick I appointed a three-member commission to take possession of the newly acquired parts of the country and to record and clear up the course of the border. This commission consisted of the Privy Councillor Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, the Privy Legation Councillor Johann Peter von Feuerbach and the Privy Chief Finance Councillor Ferdinand August von Weckherlin. In cooperation with the commissioners appointed by Bavaria, it was to take care of the ownership and organisational business in the new areas. Local officials were added to the Commissioners to assist them. The Commission was urged to forward reports and complaints to the higher authority in Stuttgart, the Committee for the Implementation of the latest State Treaties - consisting of the State Ministers Graf von Mandelslohe, Graf von Taube and von Reischach - (see D 29 Bü 1). Ulm, the main acquisition of the state treaty, was chosen as the main administrative seat. In November and December 1810, the commissioners were active on site except in Ulm to take possession. From March 1811, border clearing commissioners were appointed. The focus of the commission's work in 1810 was on the formal occupation of the new villages: Application of patents, swearing-in of subjects, etc. At the beginning of 1811, the Commission's activities focused on the organisation of the parts of the territory, the takeover of the servants and civil servants and the recording of assets and debts for the purpose of reconciliation with Bavaria. At the same time, under the leadership of Major General Heinrich von Theobald and the Privy Legation Council of Feuerbach, border cleaning business began in the upper offices. In April 1811, he was recalled from Feuerbach to Ulm to take over the debt and servant department. The Privy Legation Council of Wucherer replaced him for a short time. From March to mid-July, the commission in Ulm included the Landvogteisteuerrat Tafel and the registrar Kappoll Oberrechnungsrat Carl Eberhardt Weissmann, von Feuerbach, Rechnungsrat Vetter and, at times, Graf von Zeppelin, while von Weckherlin was in Stuttgart. With the return of Weckherlin to Ulm in July 1811 von Feuerbach again took over the clearing of the border. In Ulm, only Weckherlin and Weissmann were left behind, because the Commission's business increasingly shifted to the division of debts between Bavaria and Württemberg. The recording of assets and liabilities and the establishment of asset and liability capital of the cities and camera offices now determined the commission transactions. In March/April 1812, the entry and exit journals of the Commission end in Ulm (cf. D 29 Bü 5 - 6). In June 1812, the commissioner von Feuerbach, who was responsible for border clearance, went to Munich to clarify the questions still open at the new border (cf. D 29 Bü 157). Following this conference, the Main Execution Treaty of Munich was signed in September 1812. This marked the beginning of the second stage of border cleaning (cf. D 29 Bü 158). The questions of the distribution of debts with Bavaria, which were also still open, were taken over by Weissmann's Upper Council of Account, who travelled to Augsburg in April 1813 to the Debt Redemption Fund. Subsequently, this task was taken over by the Section of State Accounts, the predecessor authority of the Upper Chamber of Accounts, and the Section of Crown Domains. On the history of the holdings: The files of the royal Property Seizure Commission, which were created in Ulm between 1810 and 1812, were transferred by the Upper Chamber of Accounts to the Ludwigsburg Financial Archive in 1835 (cf. StAL E 224a Bü 75). In the case of the files, two lists of files presumably compiled by the Oberrechnungskammer with an index of facts, persons and places were appended. Until 1949 the file directories served as finding aids, the registry numbers I - CXXXIII already assigned by the Ulm authority and the fascicle numbers CXXXIV No. 1 - 28 presumably added later at the Oberrechnungskammer were retained as archive signatures (= presignature 2). Already when the files were taken over in 1835, 18 fascicles were registered as missing. In 1847 a revision took place in which the missing fascicles were marked again. The stock was relocated for several years. The files originally stored at the beginning of inventory D 21, Central Organizing Commission, have now been placed at its end. In 1908, the files of the Take-over Commission were transferred from the Financial Archive to the Ludwigsburg State Branch Archive. Before the year 1949 4 more tufts were added, which, listed by K. O. Müller, received the signature CXXXIV No. 29 - 32. In 1949 another revision took place, in which all existing files were signed through according to numerus currens; the numbering resulted in 146 tufts of files (= presignature 3). In 1987, 14 tufts from the HStA Stuttgart arrived in Ludwigsburg, which were sorted out when the inventory E 36, 2 Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was indexed and divided (= presignature 1). The files concerning the foundation system partly had file numbers of the Ulm registry, among them were 6 fascicles of the files already noted as missing when they were taken over into the archive. These files were added to the inventory and were given the numbers 147 - 161. In 1990, 37 tufts from the inventory E 36, 2 (Fasz. 23 - 33) 37 were again delivered from the main state archive Stuttgart. In 1994, 3 more tufts were added. On the occasion of the distortion and allocation of the tufts which arrived in 1990, it was decided to register and order the entire stock anew. The collection is divided into two large parts according to the development of the registry and the place where the files were created. Part 1 consists of the files that have grown and been filed with the Besitzergreifungskommission in Ulm. The files, most of which came from Stuttgart, form part 2 of the collection. These are the official files of the Commissioner von Feuerbach which arose outside Ulm during the settlement of the border clearance transaction. It is likely that von Feuerbach, who worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs during and after his commission activities, took the files with him to this location, from where they then reached the old registry there. The Commissioner and Privy Legation Council of Feuerbach's area of responsibility did not only extend to border cleaning; at times he was also assigned the debt and servant department (cf. history of the authorities).the relatively small file units of the two registries were retained in the records; only in a few cases were files merged. Only old envelopes were collected. Especially in the case of the files presumably filed with the upper arithmetic chamber, foreign provenances were found. These altogether eight tufts or parts of tufts were inserted into the corresponding stocks (cf. concordance). Within these groups, a breakdown has been made by business and function of the Commission. An attempt was made to structure both parts equally. A comparison of the existing files with the find book presumably produced at the Oberrechnungskammer (cf. D 29 Bü 9) shows that the inventory is no longer complete. The re-drawing was carried out in 1994 by Mrs Sibylle Kraiss under the direction of the undersigned. The collection comprises 191 Bü = 2, 7 m.Ludwigsburg, in March 1995(Dr. Hofmann) Literature: Königlich Württembergisches Hof- und Staatshandbuch auf das Jahr 1812, Stuttgart 1812The Kingdom of Württemberg.

1. important note: This find book is hopefully a preliminary aid for orientation in the stock. The title recordings were made directly during the recording and evaluation of the documents in the Natural History Museum so that the documents could at least be provisionally indexed and transferred to the State Archives for use. This of course meant that only a superficial development could be carried out. 120 units are in the portfolio. 2nd History of the Natural History Museum: The Staatliche Museum für Naturkunde Stuttgart has its origins in the ducal Kunstkammer. In 1791 an independent "Naturalien-Kabinett" was separated from this, which was responsible for the collection of minerals, plants and animals. In 1827 the Natural History Cabinet received a new building in Stuttgart's Neckarstraße, which it used together with the State Archives. The files contained in the collection bear witness to the not unproblematic proximity of two cultural institutions, which obviously worked against each other to assert their mostly scarce means. The building was rebuilt several times, in the 1860s by extending the wings towards Archivstraße. In 1944, the building was destroyed by the Natural History Museum and the State Archives; the natural history collections were then stored in Rosenstein Castle. In 1900 the Natural History Cabinet was given the modern name Natural History Collection, which was used until 1950. Since 1950 it has been the State Museum of Natural History, and in 1817 the Natural History Cabinet was placed under the authority of a newly established supreme authority, the Royal Directorate of Scientific Collections. This stood above the public library, the collection of coins, medals, art and antiquities and the collection of natural objects. On April 1, 1919, the Directorate of the Scientific Collections was abolished, the Natural History Collection as well as the State Library directly subordinated to the Ministry of Culture, and it was assumed that the tradition of the Directorate of the Scientific Collections had been largely destroyed in the Second World War together with that of the Ministry of Culture (see also below under 5.). Fortunately, among the documents of the Natural History Museum, there were numerous files from the Directorate of Scientific Collections. 3. content and order of the holdings: the documents provide information on the development of a princely collection of precious objects into a scientific enterprise and a museum that is becoming more and more accessible to the public. In this context, the general administrative acts presented here particularly reflected the practical affairs of the company: time and again, the securing and construction of premises, the procurement of the necessary furniture and personnel issues are at stake. In view of the disturbed situation of tradition in the Ministry of Culture, the documents of the Natural History Museum and the Directorate offered for separation were taken over completely up to and including 1945, provided that they were not completely meaningless redundancies with regard to content. In addition, there had also been assignments of documents and processes of the museum to the files of the directorate (and vice versa) in the Natural History Museum. A technically correct separation of the provenances could only be achieved here through individual analyses. For this reason, it was decided at the moment not to divide the holdings into a "Directorate of Scientific Collections" and a "Natural History Collection/Museum". Even a separation into an old collection until 1945 and a newer collection for the State Museum of Natural History after 1945 would not be possible and meaningful without detailed analyses. Such files, which clearly originated with the Directorate (identifiable by the file number, among other things) and were closed at the time of their existence, were assigned to the classification group "1st Directorate" with the final provenance "Directorate". Otherwise, it was occasionally necessary to decide according to the main focus of the file or to assign the file unit to the point "5. files (provenance not yet clarified)" until the situation was clarified; this was particularly often the case for files with a very long duration. Otherwise, the classification follows a chronological principle; in view of the small volume of the documents, it seemed reasonable to refrain at least for the time being from a factual subdivision. The Directorate in particular obviously followed a stringent file plan, which could not, however, be found. In the natural history collection, the file number apparently played a subordinate role, and the collection is expected to grow further in the coming years. 4. terms of use: Individual file units are still subject to protection and blocking periods according to the Landesarchivgesetz. 5. reference to other documents: Accounting documents of the Directorate of the Scientific Collections are in the inventory E 226/230 of the State Archives Ludwigsburg. it is to be assumed that also older documents remained in the Natural History Museum, where they are partly still needed. 6. literature: Dehlinger, Alfred: Württembergs Staatswesen in its historical development until today.

Preliminary remark on the original stock: The present stock E 131 consists of two main departments:The 1st main department - concerning the press office as instrument of the president or the government in dealings with the press - was recorded in 1950/51 by Dr. Max Straub. Accidentally, the fascination was also revealed. The second main department - Rundfunkakten - was recorded in 1969 by Dr. Alois Seiler. Both repertories were combined in October 1970 to the present repertory, which is structured as follows:Table of ContentsI. Main SectionOverview Files II. Main sectionContents overviewPreliminary remarksFilesPreliminary remarks on the request (radio files): The radio files of the press office (or department) of the Württemberg State Ministry listed below were handed over to the (Haupt-)Staatsarchiv Stuttgart for safekeeping in 1938 during the filing process of the State Ministry. They were previously recorded under the archive signature E 130 directory IV: "Akten des Württembergischen Regierungsungskommissars (Oberregierungsrat Vögele) bei der Süddeutsche Rundfunk AG". Since, in terms of their provenance, they are neither documents of the State Ministry itself, nor files of the radio consultant, but files of the Press Office of the State Ministry dissolved in March 1933, they have now been assigned to this archive collection (signature: E 131) as Section II. The files, which were very informative in many respects for the first decade of German radio history, are almost exclusively written records of the radio activities of the long-standing employee and head of the Press Office, Joseph Vögele. From 1926-1932 he was chairman of the supervisory committee, from September 1932 to March 1933 he was state commissioner at the Süddeutsche Rundfunk AG; after the dissolution of the press office he left the civil service.The structure of the file holdings, which until then had only been indexed by a concise handover index, which was often even inaccurate in its contents, was largely based on the chronological sequence of the official activities of the dog radio consultant, as far as this was possible in the case of the files found" Torakten in Angelegenheiten außerhalb des Rundfunkbereichs were retained" The arranger endeavoured to largely break down the rich contents of the numerous collection fascicles ("enthaltenält-Vermerken"). The order of these Einsel data reflects - apart from occasionally necessary contractions - only the internal structure of the individual file fascicles, not the effort for a systematic arrangement in retrospect. 57 fascicles with a circumference of approx. 1 running m are in the collection. In June 1969 it was "recorded out of service" The files in stand-up files or loose-leaf binders were retransferred to this occasion in the Ludwigsburg State Archives (by A. Berwanger) into rust-protected archive folders.Ludwigsburg July 1969Dr. A. Seiler

Preliminary remark: After processing the inventory E 130 a, retired government director Karl Elwert began in 1973 with the indexing of the inventory E 130 b (up to Bü. 1069). After his departure at the end of 1975, the undersigned took over this activity, which could not be completed until August 1990 due to several major interruptions. In accordance with the principles set out in the foreword to the finding aid book for fonds E 130 a, fonds E 130 b combines the files filed in the former partial fonds E 130 II and E 130 IV according to the 1928 registration plan. Documents of the former Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which had been transferred to the registry of the Ministry of State after the abolition of the Ministry, were reintegrated into the original context in accordance with the provenance principle. From the extensive series of the yearly formed inputs (approx. 4.4 shelf meters, Az. J 2) the larger part was collected from the year 1920. The remainder, preserved as a representative cross-section, is grouped by subject to facilitate use. In addition, entries can also be found in the respective fact files. Otherwise, cassations were limited to doubles. This collection mainly comprises documents on the period of the Weimar Republic and National Socialism, and to a lesser extent also on the Empire. In view of the responsibilities of the Ministry of State and in view of the fact that the tradition of the specialised ministries, with the exception of the Ministry of the Interior, has largely been destroyed, the documents of the Ministry of State are of particular importance. However, the documents on parties and the series of cabinet minutes from 1932 onwards have not been preserved; even the secret registry has apparently been destroyed. Old file bundles, which were taken over in 1928 into the newly ordered old registry, are identified by a file transfer plan with the new file numbers. The signatures that are now valid are determined by the concordance. The completion of the finding aid book took place with the help of the EDP on the basis of the program package MIDOSA of the national archive administration Baden-Wuerttemberg between summer 1992 and March 1993. The collection of the data records provided in the way of the administrative assistance Mrs. Hildegard Aufderklamm of the national archives Ludwigsburg, the final editorship in the main national archives made Mrs. Gisela Filipitsch and Dr. Roland Müller. The holdings comprise 4 209 archive units in 115 linear metres.

History of the authorities: The institution of the state commissioners was created in Baden in 1863 as part of the extensive reorganization of the administration. The four Commissioners, based in Karlsruhe, Mannheim, Freiburg and Constance, were responsible for supervising the administrative and district authorities and their civil servants. The commissioners were assigned to the Baden Ministry of the Interior and over time were given a number of independent powers where they decided instead of the Ministry of the Interior. These competencies included the supervision of the police administration of the offices and municipalities, the handling of complaints against police penal orders, the ordering of police measures in the event of serious disturbances to public order, as well as questions of war performance and war damage procedures and the controlled economy during the First World War. After the war, they acted as demobilisation and district housing commissioners. In addition, the 1921 municipal regulations entrusted them with state supervision of the cities. Although in some areas the state commissioners acted as a middle instance, they were formally not a middle authority between the Ministry of the Interior and the district offices. During the National Socialist era, the institution of the state commissioners was allowed to exist despite all efforts to unify the administration in the Reich and was not replaced by government presidents. Between 1933 and 1945, however, the state commissioners were treated by the Reich as a middle instance and given corresponding tasks. After the Second World War, the state commissariats were allowed to expire due to the vacancies not being filled. The Constance State Commissioner retired in 1946 and his office was closed. Inventory history: In 1962, the files of the present inventory were transferred from the Constance District Office to the Freiburg branch of the Karlsruhe General State Archives. The inventory was recorded 1962/63 by Paul Waldherr; after a revision a finding aid book was available from 1980. In order to make this finding aid accessible for use on the Internet, it was digitized in 2005 and 2006 by Franziska Mahler and Britta Schwenkreis. For better orientation (especially in the case of local files), the respective headings to which the individual files were assigned within the headings order at that time are shown in brackets. The undersigned was responsible for supervising the work. Freiburg, May 2006 Dr. Christof Strauß

History of tradition History of the authorities Due to the denazification guidelines of the French occupying power of 19 October 1945, cleaning commissions were formed as a second stage at each state directorate in Tübingen. On 18 February 1946 the commissions met for the first time. They had to apply graduated sanctions on the basis of the material prepared by the district investigation committees. On 18 March 1946, the formation of a political cleansing council of representatives of the parties was ordered, which was to ensure the unification of the sanctions and a balanced composition of the cleansing organs. He met for the first time on 6 April 1946. The legal order for political cleansing of 28 May 1946 redesigned the cleansing procedure as a purely administrative procedure and established a State Commissariat for political cleansing as the highest authority with its seat in Reutlingen, to which a political advisory council was attached. The cleaning commissions only had to submit proposals for sanctions. When new evidence was submitted, the State Commissariat was able to order a retrial. With the legal order of 25 April 1947, the system of the Spruchkamm was introduced and the seat of the Staatskommissariat was moved to Tübingen. In 1953, the State Commissariat was abolished by the Law on the Uniform Termination of Political Cleansing. Inventory history and report of the editor The documents at hand were sent to the Sigmaringen State Archives via the Ludwigsburg State Archives in October 1977/29. The employee Rupert Flöß created a very flat directory of available documentation. Since then, finding a single denazification file has required a multi-level search system, essentially using different card indexes and slogans collections. Denazification mainly affected certain professions and in particular public sector workers. The fact that a person completed a questionnaire does not therefore allow any conclusion to be drawn as to their behaviour during the Third Reich. Questionnaires had to be filled out even for numerous persons who had already died. Among other things, they were used to verify pension and reparation rights. For certain professional groups, for example clergy, journalists and members of the chamber of commerce (Reutlingen) own files were led. However, the information contained in the denazification files and so-called sayings varies greatly. For example, the little sayings that were used to decide the procedures of the unencumbered or the under-encumbered contain only minimal information, usually the name, date of birth, place of residence and political evaluation. Nevertheless, even they can provide important information, if these data were not previously known, and they often allow the entry into further research. The other denazification acts are also very different in scope and significance. Often the information value does not go substantially beyond that of the small sayings. Sometimes, however, they contain extensive information about the person, the documentation of a very extensive denazification process and statements by other persons about the person concerned. In these statements of other persons, the so called "Persilscheinen" (due to the "cleansing" of the person to be denazified), some background stories about the life of the person are told. The relief factors mentioned include church commitment, communion or confirmation and negative professional consequences due to the political attitude against the National Socialists. Frequent mention is also made of processes in which one person has not betrayed another after a critical statement or act. Depending on the occupation zone, there were large differences in the implementation of denazification. Unlike in other zones, for example, in the French-occupied territory of Württemberg-Hohenzollern not all residents had to fill out a questionnaire asking, among other things: "Have you ever been a member of the NSDAP?"Have you ever been detained or detained for racial or religious reasons, or because you actively or passively resisted the National Socialists, or because you were restricted in your freedom of movement, establishment or otherwise in your commercial or professional freedom?" and "Has one of your children been on a Napola?". In addition, questions were asked about income, military service and foreign travel, among other things. In 2008, Karin Stolz and Michael Göhner began entering the name, date of birth and, if applicable, the date of death as well as the places of birth, death and residence of the individual persons in the scopeArchiv indexing program. Since November 2008, Dagmar Bohn, Erich Conzelmann, Andrea Glatzer, Anja Grathwohl, Maria Hirtreiter, Alexander Hochhalter, Michael Mendorf, Karl Nolle, Renate Rüppel, Anja Sadowski and Malgorzata Stepko-Pape have also been involved in the recording. Corinna Knobloch, Sofia Brüning, Heidrun Dreher, Maria Hirtreiter, Marion Hofbeck, Bettina Jourdan, Manfred Klawitter, Leon Körbel, Irene Moser, Doris Nußbaum, Beate Oehmichen and Elisabeth Schwellinger carried out editorial rework. In 2011, Michael Mendorf and Andrea Schill began the digitisation of selected archival documents. As a rule, location identification is limited to the information contained in the relevant documents. The occupation was not taken up or indexed. In April 2008, the first development data were exported to the Internet. For reasons of data protection, the online find book is limited to persons who have been proven to have died more than 10 years or who were born more than 110 years ago. In addition, the online find book contains the indexing information of the typewritten find book compiled in 1985. Since May 2011, selected parts of the documents have also been presented as digital reproductions on the Internet. In addition to the historical relevance of the individual persons, the decision on the time of digitisation also depends on the state of preservation of the documents. Sigmaringen, May 2011 Corinna Knobloch Content and Rating Includes: Proceedings of the Chambers of Spreads, cleaning of the clergy and journalists, discounts, revisions, regroupings and regroupings, rejection notices of the military government, matters of grace, announcements of the State Commissariat about the results of the political cleaning in government papers (lists of names), certificates of harmlessness, sayings and decisions of the Chambers of Spreads.
