Preface: <br /> Within the framework of the territorial upheavals at the beginning of the 19th century, Baden was able to acquire extensive areas in the Electoral Palatinate and the Principality of Liningen, from which the district offices of Eberbach and Neckargemünd were formed according to the organisational edict of 24 July 1813. The Eberbach District Office consisted of the former Eberbach and Zwingenberg offices as well as the towns of Wagenschwend, Balsbach and Robern as part of the dissolved Lohrbach office. In contrast to the Electoral Palatine Oberamt Heidelberg, which had come directly to Baden, the Oberamt Mosbach had initially served in 1803 to furnish the newly formed principality of Leiningen, which was established by the Eberbach office. Even though the Liningenschen areas also fell to Baden in 1806, until 1813 the administrative structure was still based on consideration for the class and landlords. A special feature here is above all the Zwingenberg dominion, which was awarded to the Counts of Bretzenheim in 1778, whereby the Amtsvogtei remained under the Mosbach upper office. The sovereignty of the state passed from the Electoral Palatinate to Leiningen in 1803 and to Baden in 1806. In 1808 the sovereignty was bought for the counts of Hochberg, who were to attain the grand duke's throne in 1830. Goods and rights were found in Zwingenberg, Oberdielbach, Waldkatzenbach, Strümpfelbrunn, Weisbach, Mülben, Ferdinandsdorf and Friedrichsdorf, but also in Wagenschwend, Balsbach and Robern. The Zwingenberg office itself was dissolved in 1813 and added to the new Eberbach district office. Only one intermezzo represented the administration of the noble places by the district office Neudenau zu Mosbach in the years 1840-49. The district office Neckargemünd was formed by the former office Neckargemünd and parts of the office Neckarschwarzach. These areas had been administered until 1803 by the Electoral Palatinate Oberamt Heidelberg and the Unteramt Dilsberg. In addition there were possessions of the Counts of Erbach-Fürstenau in Moosbrunn, the Barons of Berlichingen and the Lords of Schmitz Auerbach in Schwanheim and Michelbach. In 1857, the Neckargemünd district office was incorporated into the Eberbach district office, but its western part was beaten into the Heidelberg district office as early as 1864. The town of Reisenbach did not become part of the Eberbach administrative district until 1900 and returned to Buchen in 1924. The Eberbach district office itself was dissolved in 1924, the north-west fell to the Heidelberg district office and the south-east to Mosbach. From 1809 the directorate of the Neckar Circle acted as the middle instances, from 1832-1864 the government of the Lower Rhine Circle, afterwards a state commissariat, in each case with seat in Mannheim. The now fully developed inventory 349 Bezirksamt Eberbach consists of the previous partial inventory 349 as well as the additions 349 Zug. 1894/36, 1903/34, 1907/119, 1924/18, 1924/56, 1942/334, 1955/50 and 1966/17, which could be used so far only with difficulties. Nine files were assigned to other holdings. The classification corresponds to the Fackler Classification Rules valid for the district offices. The development was started by Dr. Franz-Josef Ziwes in 1997 and completed by Dr. Rainer Brüning. Due to the fact that the mixed stocks in the area of the district delivery of the GLA can no longer be physically separated, special care was taken to determine the preliminary and final provenances. The stock 349 now includes 2088 fascicles with 17.5 running meters. Scope. For research purposes, reference is made not only to the continued files in the district archives of Heidelberg (holdings 356) and Mosbach (holdings 364) in the General State Archives of Karlsruhe, but also to the holdings of the princely Liningens Archives of Amorbach.
