Scope and content

History of the authorities: As a result of the territorial upheavals in the Napoleonic period, a total of 66 sovereign and 53 rank sovereign offices were created in Baden on the basis of the organisational edict of 26 October 1809. The number of district offices (since 1939: administrative districts) and upper offices was reduced in the course of the time by merging and abolition, so that 1945 in the today's administrative district Freiburg only 16 administrative districts (Donaueschingen, Emmendingen, Freiburg, Kehl, Konstanz, Lahr, Lörrach, Müllheim, Neustadt, Offenburg, Säckingen, Stockach, Überlingen, Villingen, Waldshut, Wolfach) and - since 1939 - two city districts (Freiburg, Konstanz) existed. Apart from the offices of the rank and rank abolished in 1849 at the latest, the district offices were purely state authorities. Only by the administrative district order of 24.6.1939 they received - de facto however only on paper - also tasks of a self-administration body. They were primarily responsible for general state administration, but were also responsible for the police and - until the establishment of their own court organisation (1857) - the judiciary, in particular the civil courts. As administrative authorities they were assigned to the Ministry of the Interior and subordinated to changing central authorities (district directorates, from 1832 district governments, from 1863 state commissioners); with regard to the judiciary, the court courts and the district directorates or district governments were superior to them. Inventory history: Before the beginning of the indexing work, the files of the Oberkirch District Office were distributed among the following holdings:a) B 727/1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12;b) W 499. Initially, the holdings mentioned under a) were combined to form the holdings B 727/12 (new). All files of the provenance "Bezirksamt Oberkirch" from the provisional holdings W 499, which contains documents from the holdings 129 to 228 of the General State Archives Karlsruhe, which reached the State Archives Freiburg within the framework of the mutual equalisation of holdings, were also included in the work. The pre-signature 1 contains the last signature used in the Freiburg State Archives before the re-drawing and the pre-signature 2 the penultimate signature used in the Freiburg State Archives and the signature formerly used in the Karlsruhe State Archives, respectively. after preparatory work on the B 727 series of the Erdmuthe Krieg, the present holdings of David Boomers, Joanna Genkova, Edgar Hellwig, Wolfgang Lippke, Jochen Rees and Christof Strauß were recorded. Edgar Hellwig was responsible for the final editing of the finding aid book and the undersigned for supervising the work. The stock B 727/12 now comprises 6159 fascicles and measures 41.5 lfd.m.Freiburg, February 2009 Dr. Christof Strauß
