Fonds 12-011 - Ephorie Heldburg

In the present case there is a file stock of approximately 12 linear metres [running metres], which had been stored for many years initially in the cellars of the "Pflugensberg"[*] and which, packed in moving boxes, had been in the magazine of the Kreuzkirche[] since 1990. When unpacking the cartons and looking for some sort of principle of order, it turned out, however, that according to a note in a repertory found later, the holdings had already fallen into a chaotic state around 1900 during a stock transfer operation - for such an extensive inventory, which was mostly made up of individual sheets or sheets. Although someone had tried to rearrange the mass of documents according to a certain scheme, many documents either did not receive a title/caption at all or were bundled and tied only under a certain keyword.In addition, when packing for the move to the Kreuzkirche, unfortunately some things had gotten mixed up again, so that only one solution was possible: the whole, sometimes quite damaged mass of files had to be sorted from scratch and after appropriate reading of the often difficult to decipher briefs according to time and content, new files had to be formed, these had to be provided with titles or contents and then the whole thing had to be listed according to an appropriate classification scheme. It was also necessary to produce a few dozen file envelopes to hold the countless single-sheet documents. A separation or reconstruction of the acta pastoralia was only possible in individual cases, but due to the fact that I only had a few hours available two days a week when I arrived by car, it took months of detailed work to solve this task. But it was worth the effort, because it is a collection that contains many remarkable and valuable documents of church and regional history, as well as from a relatively long time ago (oldest files from the 16th century and copies of old documents): Foundation deed of Ummerstadt 1445, Hellingen 1535).

Pflugensberg in Eisenach was the former regional church office building of the newly founded Thuringian regional church. The archives of the Landeskirchenarchiv from 1922-1990 were stored in the basement rooms there In 1990 the complete Landeskirchenarchiv was moved to the Kreuzkirche on the Old Cemetery in Eisenach, which had been specially rebuilt for this purpose. Since March 2014 the Landeskirchenarchiv has been at its third location since its foundation (Ernst-Thälmann-Straße 88 in Eisenach; see www.landeskirchenarchiv-eisenach.de).
