Nr. 1-2814

History of the authorities: The territorial reorganization of Germany by Napoleon almost doubled the territory of the former margraviate of Baden between 1803 and 1810. In 1803 it was elevated to the status of electorate and in 1806 to that of grand duchy. This made it necessary to restructure and standardize the administrative structures of the administratively heterogeneous state. The organizational edicts issued between 1806 and 1809 divided the Grand Duchy of Baden into 66 provincial and 53 municipal offices. The offices of the rank were abolished until 1849 or converted into the offices of the sovereign. The number of district offices in Baden was significantly reduced by mergers and abolitions in the course of the 19th and 20th centuries.Originally, the district offices were purely state authorities and as such were primarily responsible for general state administration and for state supervision of the activities of municipal administrations in their respective districts, but they were also responsible for the police and - until the establishment of their own court organisation in 1857 - the judiciary, in particular civil justice. The Bonndorf office belonged to the Donaukreis, from 1819 to the Seekreis. In 1813, several communities of the dissolved Bettmaringen office were assigned to the Bonndorf district. The administrative reform of 1832 replaced the meanwhile remaining six district directorates as central authorities by the district governments of four districts and assigned the administrative district Bonndorf to the Seekreis. In 1864 the four districts were dissolved and the district offices directly subordinated to the Ministry of the Interior. At the same time, the Grand Duchy of Bonndorf was divided into eleven district associations as local self-governing bodies without state responsibilities, with the district of Bonndorf becoming part of the Waldshut district. The district offices and district associations were combined into four state commissioner districts for the purpose of handling state administrative supervision. At their head was a state commissioner with a seat and vote in the Grand Ducal Ministry of the Interior. The district office Bonndorf was assigned to the state commissioner district Konstanz. The Bonndorf district office was abolished in 1924 in the course of simplifying the internal administration and the municipalities were assigned to the districts of Neustadt and Waldshut. Inventory history: Before the beginning of the indexing work, the files of the Meßkirch District Office were distributed among the following holdings:B 692/1, B 692/2, B 692/3, B 692/4, B 692/5, B 692/6, B 692/7, B 692/8, B 692/9, B 692/10, B 692/11 and B 764/1 (Bonndorf official audit). The above stocks were combined to form stock B 692/1 (new). In the process, foreign provenances with a term ending after 1806 and before 1936 were taken and assigned to other holdings of the Freiburg State Archives according to their provenance. Files with a term ending before 1806 were separated and handed over to the General State Archive Karlsruhe for reasons of competence. In justified exceptional cases, e.g. when the proportion of documents originating before 1806 in a file was limited to a few documents, files with a term before 1806 were also included in B 692/1 (new). Notes for use:Concordances in the printed version of the finding aid book for B 692/1 (new) show all presignatures of the individual files. The signature last used in the Freiburg State Archives before the new indexing is found under Presignature 1 and the signature formerly used in the Karlsruhe General State Archives under Presignature 2. The penultimate signature used in the Freiburg State Archives is found under Presignature 3. The present holdings were recorded by Edgar Hellwig, Lisa Röpke, Annika Scheumann and Sinah Waldvogel. Planning, organisation and coordination as well as final correction and final editing of the finding aid were carried out by the undersigned. The stock B 692/1 comprises 2814 fascicles and measures 25,8 lfd.m.Freiburg, September 2016Annette Riek
