Description of the holdings: The head of the army archives was the head of archives for the Wehrmacht part of the army with its official seat in Potsdam. The chief of the army archives was in charge of the army archives in Potsdam, Vienna, Munich, Dresden and Stuttgart, the army archives branches in Prague and Gdansk, as well as the representatives in the occupied territories and the Wehrmacht sighting station for prey files. The Chief of the Army Archives was responsible for the recording of files of the High Command of the Wehrmacht, of the High Command of the Army with subordinate offices, of the command authorities, troops, administrative authorities and other institutions of the army (cf. HDv. 30 Correspondence and Business Transactions of the Wehrmacht, Appendix 2). The User Regulations regulated the lending and use of the Army Archives (cf. BArch RH 18/437). After three years of negotiations, the Reich and Prussian Minister of the Interior and the Reich War Minister agreed in September 1936 that the military files should be taken over by the High Command of the Army. On April 1, 1937, the chief of the army archives and the army archives under his command took over the military archives, which since 1919 had been administered by the Reichsarchiv, its branches in Dresden and Stuttgart, and the war archives in Munich. The Chief of the Army Archives was subordinate to the Chief Quartermaster V in the General Staff of the Army until 1942. With the reorientation of the writing of war history, Hitler subordinated the Chief of the Army Archives to the Commissioner of the Führer for Military History, Colonel Scherff, with effect from 1 July 1942. From 1937 to 1942 Friedrich von Rabenau was the chief of the army archives, from 1942 until the end of the war Karl Ruppert, who had been in charge of the Potsdam army archives since 1937. The management of the Heeresarchiv Potsdam and the office of Chief of Army Archives were merged in 1943. Heeresarchiv Potsdam The Heeresarchiv Potsdam was divided into three departments. Department A administered the Brandenburg-Prussian Army Archives, the archives of which ran from the 17th century until the dissolution of the Prussian army in 1920. Department B kept the files of the volunteer formations formed after World War I and of the Reichswehr. Section C was intended for the recording of Wehrmacht files, i.e. from 1935 with the re-establishment of military sovereignty. The departments of the Heeresarchiv Potsdam were divided into subject areas. Other organisational units included the collections, estates, maps and the picture collection. In 1935, the Berlin Department of the Reichsarchiv (especially the Prussian War Ministry after 1867) and the Central Office of Records for War Losses and War Graves were also subordinated to the Heeresarchiv Potsdam. The Heeresarchiv Potsdam continuously took over the war diaries of all command authorities and troops as well as the court files of the field and war courts in the court file collection centre. The file collection centre West in Berlin-Wannsee mainly recorded loot files from various military offices in France. The organisational structure of the Heeresarchiv Potsdam was not uniform and changed several times until 1945. In territorial matters, the Heeresarchiv Potsdam was bound by the instructions of the commander in Wehrkreis III (Berlin). A British air raid on Potsdam on 14 April 1945 hit the service and magazine building of the chief of the army archives and the army archive Potsdam hard. The holdings of the Brandenburg-Prussian Army Archives were almost destroyed. This concerned, among other things, the files of the Prussian military cabinet, the files of the Prussian Ministry of War, the war files of the unification wars and the most important war diaries with attachments from the First World War. The personal records of the Prussian army and the Reichswehr are considered almost completely destroyed. In 1943 the Heeresarchiv Potsdam outsourced the department for the recording of war diaries to Liegnitz in Silesia. At the end of 1944 this branch was moved back to Potsdam. Later, the Heeresarchiv Potsdam outsourced large quantities of its archives. Shortly before the enclosure of Berlin, the war diaries of the Second World War and a few particularly valuable older files were transferred to Blankenburg in the Harz Mountains and to Bad Reichenhall or Kufstein in "two transports of 4-6 railway wagons each" (Poll). The archives in Blankenburg were confiscated by the Western Allies. These were the war diaries of the Army High Commands, the General Commands, the divisions and other army departments as well as parts of older files. The war diaries of top army authorities were burned in Reichenhall and Kufstein on the orders of Scherff, the Führer's representative for military historiography. The destruction of older files, estates and collections in Reichenhall could be prevented by the responsible official. Heeresarchiv Wien The Chief of the Army Archives took over the War Archive Vienna after the integration of Austria in 1938. It was the central military archive of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy until 1918 and of the Republic of Austria until 1938. After the beginning of World War II, the Army Archives Vienna was assigned the Southeast Files Collection Point for the collection of loot files from the Southeast region. In territorial matters the Army Archives Vienna was bound to the instructions of the commander in the military district XVII (Vienna). Today the War Archives are under the control of the Austrian State Archives. Heeresarchiv München After the foundation of the Reichsarchiv in 1919, the Kriegsarchiv München was able to maintain its status as an independent Bavarian archive and was not subordinated to the Reichsarchiv as a branch of the Reichsarchiv, as were the archives in Dresden and Stuttgart. In 1937, the head of the Heeresarchiv took over the Kriegsarchiv München as the Heeresarchiv München. The Army Archives Munich covered the entire Bavarian military tradition from about 1650 to 1920. After the beginning of World War II, the Army Archives Munich was assigned the file collection point South, in particular for the recording of Italian booty files. In territorial matters, the Heeresarchiv München was bound by the instructions of the commander in Wehrkreis VII (Munich). After the Second World War, the Kriegsarchiv München was subordinated to the Bavarian Hauptstaatsarchiv. Despite losses during the war, the majority of the holdings have been preserved and enable source research into military history before 1919 as a replacement for the lost archive of the Potsdam Army Archives. Army Archives Dresden In 1937, the head of the army archives took over the Dresden branch of the Reichsarchiv from the Reichsarchiv as the Dresden Army Archives. This service was responsible for the stocks of the Saxon Army (XII. (I. Royal Saxon) Army Corps and XIX. (II. Royal Saxon Army Corps). The holdings of the Army Archives Dresden covered a period from 1830 - 1919 without a clear demarcation between the holdings and the Main State Archives Dresden. In territorial matters the Army Archives Dresden was bound to the instructions of the commander in the Military District IV (Dresden). During the Anglo-American air raid on Dresden on 13 February 1945, the personal documents of the Saxon army suffered losses. Despite losses during the war, the majority of the holdings have been preserved and enable source research for military history before 1919 as a replacement for the lost archive of the Potsdam Army Archives. The government of the USSR returned the preserved holdings of the Dresden Army Archives to the government of the GDR after the war. Until reunification they were administered in the military archives of the GDR in Potsdam. The Bundesarchiv-Militärarchiv transferred the holdings to the Hauptstaatsarchiv Dresden in 1991. Heeresarchiv Stuttgart The head of the army archives took over the Reichsarchiv branch Stuttgart from the Reichsarchiv in 1937 as Heeresarchiv Stuttgart. This office was responsible for the holdings of the Württemberg Army Corps (XIII (Royal Württemberg Army Corps) and the XIV (Grand Ducal Baden Army Corps). In territorial matters the Heeresarchiv Stuttgart was bound to the instructions of the commander in the Wehrkreis V (Stuttgart). The Heeresarchiv Stuttgart has been preserved without war losses and, as a replacement for the lost records of the Heeresarchiv Potsdam, enables source research for military history before 1919. Today the Heeresarchiv Stuttgart is subordinated to the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart. The archives of the XIV (Grand Ducal Baden) Army Corps are stored in the General State Archive in Karlsruhe, although the Grand Duchy of Baden from 1871-1919, in contrast to Bavaria, Saxony and Württemberg, did not have a military reserve right. Army Archives Prague Branch The Army Archives Prague branch administered the former Czech army archives and recorded archival material of the Austro-Hungarian army in Bohemia and Moravia. It was in charge of supplementing the official archival material with collections, making the holdings available for use by Wehrmacht offices, and providing information. In territorial matters, the Army Archives Prague branch was bound to the instructions of the Wehrmacht Plenipotentiary at the Reich Protector in Bohemia and Moravia (Wehrkreisbefehlshaber in Böhmen und Mähren). The Gdansk Army Archives Branch The Gdansk Army Archives Branch captured the military archives captured during the Eastern campaigns, in particular the Polish Army Archives. It had to record this material, make it usable and provide information from the files. In territorial matters, the Gdansk Army Archives Branch was bound by the instructions of the Commander of Military District XX (Gdansk).

History of Tradition Preliminary Remark By the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss of 25. February 1803 came the imperial city Biberach and the area of the hospital Biberach with the places Ahlen, Attenweiler, Bergerhausen, Birkendorf, Höfen, Ingerkingen, Laupertshausen, Muttensweiler, Volkersheim then partly Röhrwangen, Warthausen, Winterreute, Ummendorf, Baltringen, 1/3 of Baustetten, Burgrieden and Oberholzheim an Baden, which built out of it a Biberach upper bailiwick assigned to the "upper principality", which divided into the Ratsvogtei (town bailiwick) and the Vogteiamt (official bailiwick). The immediate imperial counties of Metternich-Ochsenhausen, Törring-Gutenzell, Waldbott-Bassenheim-Heggbach and partly Wartemberg-Rot and Sternberg-Schussenried were formed from the area of the Köster, as far as they belonged to the district, and the possessions of the Salem monastery were assigned to the Prince of Thurn und Taxis. The Rhenish Federal Act of 12 July 1806 brought the city of Biberach and the area of the hospital to Württemberg and the immediate imperial counties under Württemberg sovereignty, but the dominions of Erolzheim and Kellmünz on the Iller under Bavarian sovereignty. Through the state treaty with Bavaria, the left bank of the Iller became Württemberg again. According to the State Manual of 1807 and 1808, the following villages and hamlets belonged to the Oberamt Biberach: Biberach, Ahlen, Attenweiler, Aufhofen, Baltringen, Baustetten, Bühl, Bihlafingen, Bergerhausen, Birkendorf, Bronnen, Burgrieden, Donaustetten, Dorndorf, Hagenbuch, Häusern, Höfen, Holzheim, Hüttisheim, Ingerkingen, Laupertshausen, Muttensweiler, Obersulmetingen, Rißegg, Röhrwangen, Steinberg, Stetten a. d. Rottum, Unterweiler, Volkersheim, Westerflach, Wiblingen, Winterreute. In addition, the following were subordinate to the Oberamt: the patrimonial offices Achstetten, Bußmannshausen, Ellmannshausen, Hürbel, Groß- und Kleinlaupheim and Mittelbiberach and the patrimonial superior servant offices Heggbach, Schemmerberg, Sulmingen and Mistingen and Warthausen. After the abolition of the patrimonial offices (1809) the upper office Ochsenhausen was formed with the places Ochsenhausen, Bellamont, Berkheim, Erlenmoos, Gutenzell, Haslach, Horn-Fischbach, Hummertsried, Hürbel, Kirchberg, Kirchdorf, Maselheim, Edenbachen, Reinstetten, Ringschnait, Rot, Schönebürg, Spindelwag, Steinbach, Tannheim and Ummendorf. The newly created lower office Wiblingen with the villages Wiblingen, Aufhofen, Bihlafingen, Bronnen, Bühl, Donaustetten, Dorndorf, Hüttisheim, Steinberg, Stetten an der Rottum, Unterweiler and the Burgvogtei Illerrieden was subordinated to the upper office Biberach. Already after one year the upper office Ochsenhausen was abolished by the organization manifesto of 27 October 1810 again and subordinated as lower office to the upper office Biberach. At the same time the lower office Wiblingen was raised to a higher office. After these extensive changes, which placed the upper office administratively under the control of the 11th Landvogtei, the "an der Donau", with seat in Ulm, the following municipalities belonged to the upper office Biberach: Biberach, Äpfingen, Ahlen, Altheim, Aßmannshardt, Attenweiler, Aufhofen, Bellament, Bergerhausen, Birkendorf, Birkenhard, Erlenmoos, Erolzheim, Füramoos, Gutenzell, Grodt, Höfen, Hürbel, Ingerkingen, Kirchberg an der Iller, Langenschemmern, Laupertshausen, Maselheim, Mettenberg, Mittelbiberach, Mittelbuch, Muttensweiler, Obersulmetingen, Ochsenhausen, Reinstetten, Reute, Ringschnait, Rißegg, Rottum, Schemmerberg, Steinhausen an der Rottum, Ummendorf, Unterdettingen, Untersulmetingen, Volkersheim, Warthausen, as well as the Thurn und Taxissche Amtsgericht and Amt Obersulmetingen. The Unteramt Ochsenhausen was abolished, like all Unterämter in Württemberg, by the II. organization edict over the Oberamtsverfassung of 31 December 1818. By the law about the change of the upper office districts from 6 July 1842 Alberweiler came from the upper office Ehingen and Stafflangen from the upper office Waldsee to the upper office Biberach. The following reunions were carried out: 1836 a clean-up in the area of the communities Dietmanns and Unterschwarzach, 1844 Winterreute from Ummendorf to Ringschnait, 1846 conversion from Hauerz to Ellwangen, 1854 the Glaserhof from Gutenzell to Oberbalzheim, 1861 the wood mill from Burgrieden to Oberholzheim, 1864 Westerflach from Ingerkingen to Untersulmetingen, 1933 the Halbertshof from Wain to Unterbalzheim, 1933 Ziegolz from Dietmanns to Unterschwarzach, 1933 the book from Steinach (today Kr. Ravensburg) to Mühlhausen, 1951 Rindenmoos from Reute to Rißegg.

Steinhausen was connected to Schussenried until 1892. Laupheim became a town in 1869, Schussenried in 1947 and Ochsenhausen in 1950. According to the law of 25 April on the division of the territory, the district of Biberach comprises all the municipalities of the former Oberamtsbezirk with the exception of Volkersheim, which was transferred to the Ehingen district administration; it received the municipalities from the Laupheim district: Achstetten, Altheim, Baltringen, Baustetten, Bihlafingen, Bronnen, Bühl, Burgrieden, Bußmannshausen, Großschafhausen, Laupheim, Mietingen, Oberbalzheim, Oberholzheim, Orsenhausen, Rot v.

The files listed below were handed over to the Sigmaringen State Archives by the Biberach/Riß District Office on 9 November 1948, 4 February 1949, 3 October 1958 and 24 August 1959. The 1948 and 1949 deliveries were already set up in May 1949 in the State Archives according to the principle of provenance. The 1959 Accession was exclusively for steam boiler files, which were further expanded by a delivery from the Sigmaringen Trade Supervisory Office in 1960 (Acc. 24/1960). The present collection comprises 847 numbers in 23, 85 linear metres and the period from 1806-1950. Files of the same provenance from earlier deliveries for the period from 1806 to about 1925 are kept in the Ludwigsburg State Archives in fonds F 155. The order and indexing was carried out by government inspector Kungl, Reinschrift und Register, who was responsible for the order and indexing. Sigmaringen, January 1966 Kungl Government Inspector Supplement to the Foreword The official assembly records with the earlier signatures Wü 65/5 T 3 No. 54-64 and the building records with the earlier signatures Wü 65/5 T 3 No. 387-477 were handed over to the Kreisarchiv Biberach. In the years 2009/2010, the typewritten finding aid was digitized as part of the German Research Foundation (DFG) funded project for the retroconversion of archived finding aids. In cooperation with the Retroconversion Coordination Office at the Marburg School of Archives and the Baden-Württemberg State Archives, the finding aid book was prepared for publication on the Internet. Corinna Knobloch and Silke Schöttle carried out the necessary reworking. The development data has been available on the Internet since June 2010. The citation of the inventory is: Wü 65/5 T 3 Nr.

1. history of tradition: On 24 March 1976 the Linden-Museum Stuttgart handed over the scientific estate of the Africa-traveller Karl Mauch (born on 7 May 1837 in Stetten im Remstal, died on 4 April 1875 in Blaubeuren), comprising a total of 0.2 metres, to the Main State Archives for safekeeping. The museum connected with the surrender the condition, also approved by the two sponsors of the museum, the Ministry of Culture Baden-Württemberg and the city of Stuttgart, that the documents of the estate be restored, as far as necessary, in the Main State Archive Stuttgart. The most valuable parts of the scientifically significant estate are the diaries, the sketchbooks and the drawings of Karl Mauch. In addition to the records and other documents left behind by the well-known African explorer, the collection also contains materials from the estate of his brother Joseph B. Mauch. The biographer Karl Mauchs, the secondary school teacher E. Mager from Schwäbisch Gmünd, has taken care of the written legacy of the Africa researcher and provided for the erection of a memorial stone at the seminar building in Schwäbisch Gmünd. The estate was arranged and registered in the course of 1976 by the aspiring inspector Rolf Reiff under the direction of the undersigned. A restoration of the part of the written material that is endangered in its state of preservation is planned for the next few years. 2nd biography: Mauch, Karl (07.05.1837 - 04.04.1875), teacher, African explorer and cartographer; traveled in the years 1865-1872 mainly Transvaal and Matabeleland, discovered the ruins of Zimbabwe in 1871; cartographer of South Africa 3rd content: Contains: Diaries and sketchbooks; notes on geology, botany, zoology, and deposit geography; drawings and maps of his expeditions; Mauch's surveying instruments; documents of his brother Joseph B's estate.

• Signature of the inventory: A - Description of the holding: Files of the city Hof before introduction of the standard file plan of the KGSt - extent of the existence: approx. 600 shelf meters - finding aids: Find book - description of the existence (substantial contents with indication of the running time): The existence contains the files of the city Hof led since 1837 after the old file plan (order after "subjects"). An exact temporal delimitation to the existence A 1 is not possible, since the unit file plan of the KGSt was introduced by individual offices at different times, some offices did not introduce the unit file plan of the KGST yet and into the unit file plan also older files were transferred. - Information on the history of the holdings (with references to literature): In the past, the old files were not recorded in the Hof City Archives. Only the lists of the former "Reposed Registry" were used as finding aids. These are sorted by "subjects", within the subjects by Numerus currens (consecutive number). They are incomplete because files added later have not been fully recorded. In addition, only the titles of the files that were printed on the covers were written off, some of them incorrectly read. Contains notes completely missing. The runtime specifications are often incorrect. The list according to subjects and within the subjects according to the serial numbers has the disadvantage that empty space must be left between the subjects. In order to remedy this situation, the files have been listed since 1994 according to archival aspects. Newly found files are incorporated, superfluous files are collected (thrown away). The structure according to subjects is carefully adapted to the actually existing files and the current usage of language. The signatures are assigned according to Numerus currens without taking the compartments into account in order to avoid empty space on the shelves. This distortion, however, will take several years. For the time being, therefore, the old hand-written and typewritten directories of the "Reposed Registry" are to be used in addition to this find book for the subjects 101 to 356. - legal circumstances (loan contract, blocking periods): property of the Hof Municipal Archives.

History of the Inventory Designer: Introduction Stones do not speak. Much less can or must entire buildings reveal the whole historical truth. National Socialism should work. Building under National Socialism also served this purpose, either directly on behalf of the system or indirectly at least by not opposing it. The enslavement of architecture by the regime was not limited to new buildings of the NS era. National Socialism also established itself in the stock, instrumentalised old buildings everywhere for its purposes. Not even all of the important command centers of the Nazi regime or the main sites of Nazi terror were housed throughout in buildings which, in historical retrospect, could be regarded as having their origin and function at the time. In the memory of the city and in the urban space, places of the perpetrators are handed down as places of the victims, whose role is only revealed in the explanation and commentary of their historical function in the "Third Reich". Prehistory until 1937 In the Third Reich, architecture served to express power and domination. This is particularly evident in the inner city of Berlin. The monumental new buildings in the imperial capital were intended to symbolize "German world standing". Adolf Hitler wanted to see "works created for eternity" in Berlin, "only comparable with ancient Egypt, Babylon or Rome," as he said in 1936. At the 1937 Reich Party Congress, Hitler announced: "... Therefore our buildings should not be thought for the year 1940, also not for the year 2000, but should project directly into the domes of our past into the millennia of the future." Soon after the seizure of power, propagandistically effective building projects were started. These included the Reich Aviation Ministry, Tempelhof Airport, which was to be expanded into a "world airport", and the Reich Sports Field, which was to be expanded and redesigned with a view to the Olympic Games. The powerful buildings were presented to the public with great journalistic effort. At the 1936 Reich Party Congress in Nuremberg, Hitler announced the "reconstruction of Berlin as the capital of the German Reich". Hitler had initially intended to have his plans for the reorganization of the inner-city area processed by the Berlin city administration. When he realised that the local authorities were reluctant to impose his far-reaching transformation fantasies, he changed the responsibilities for planning and building in the capital. On 30 January 1937, the young architect Albert Speer was appointed general building inspector for the redevelopment of the imperial capital (GBI), reporting directly to the "Führer". Organization and history from 1937 A few days after Speer's appointment, Hitler ordered the House of the Academy of Arts at Pariser Platz No. 4, which until then had belonged to the office of the Minister of Education, to be vacated for the office of the General Building Inspector. Within a year and a half, the GBI's planning staff alone grew to eighty-seven people, while the so-called implementing body employed the same number of staff. Speer appointed a number of equally competent and reliable people to the executive positions in the three main departments into which he divided the office: the head office, which administered the budget, was taken over by the financial expert Karl Maria Hettlage, the general site manager Walter Brugmann, who had got to know Speer in Nuremberg, and for the planning office, since it was objectively most important to him, he, in addition to Hans Stephan, called on two long-standing friends, Rudolf Wolters and Willi Schelkes, who had been associated with him since days of study. The Speers offices, which had been established successively since 1937, were not divided into three main offices until mid-1940 under the central management of the GBI. After his appointment to the GBI, Speer expanded his planning staff to the "office" of the GBI. This later Main Office I, Planning Office, was responsible for all planning matters, ordered more than one hundred areas of redesign by 1942 and set the respective clearance dates. From 1938, Jewish tenants were forced to cancel their tenancy agreements on the basis of the "Verordnung über den Einsatz des jüdischen Vermögens" (Ordinance on the Use of Jewish Property); they were admitted to Jewish houses and later to concentration camps. For the "resettlement" of Jews and the reassignment of the apartments, the GBI's "Implementation Office" had been set up under the direction of Karl Maria Hettlage. In this way about 18,000 apartments were requisitioned. Areas from which the Jews were completely expelled were described as "Jew-free". The number of buildings erected during the twelve years of National Socialist rule between 1933 and 1945 is surprisingly high, especially since it must be remembered that only six years were available during the Second World War. In November 1939, a ban on new construction was imposed due to the war, which was followed half a year later by the discontinuation of all construction measures not necessary for the war. The GBI was established by the Decree of 30 January 1937. The office itself was assigned to Albert Speer, who from 1934 was "the representative for construction in the staff of the deputy of the Führer" and as such had already established some Nazi party buildings, especially in Nuremberg. At first, the GBI's competence did not extend beyond Berlin and its immediate surroundings. The "Gesetz über die Neugestaltung deutscher Städte" of 4 Oct. 1937 does not yet contain a more detailed provision on the "agency commissioned" by Hitler himself to carry out these projects. Only in this way was it possible for a special "General Building Council for the Capital of the Movement" to be appointed to Munich by decree of 21 Dec. 1938 and for this office to be occupied by the NS party architect Paul Giesler; Giesler was also commissioned with the establishment of NS party buildings in Augsburg and Weimar. It was not until the third decree on the GBI of 18 Oct 1940 that the competence of the GBI was significantly extended. The latter was expressly declared a "commissioned body" within the meaning of the Act on the Redevelopment of German Cities. In the years 1938 to 1942, a total of 32 cities in the former Reich territory were included in the new planning on the basis of the law of 4 Oct. 1937 by decrees and ordinances promulgated in the Reichsgesetzblatt. As of the end of 1942, the progress of all urban development plans of a peace-related nature was completely halted, since tasks important to the war awaited solution and Speer himself had been largely involved in them since his appointment as Reich Minister for Armament and Munitions on 15 February 1942 and on 2 September 1943 as Reich Minister for Armament and War Production. With the decree of 11 Oct. 1943 on the preparation of the reconstruction of bomb-damaged cities, Speer was entrusted with the necessary tasks in his capacity as GBI. He had to determine the framework for the future design of the cities and the right to decide on urban development issues of the reconstruction cities in place of the Reich Minister of Labour. The elimination of the Reich Labour Minister, to whom Speer had previously been bound as GBI despite his direct subordination under Hitler, was above all a consequence of Speer's present position as Reich Minister. Inventory description: Inventory history In Germany, the General Building Inspector's collection for the imperial capital is divided into three archives: the Bundesarchiv, the Landesarchiv Berlin and the Bayerische Hauptstaatsarchiv Munich. A total of three finding aids were available in the Federal Archives for the inventory R 4606 General Building Inspector for the Imperial Capital. The holdings were brought together from Potsdam and Koblenz at the beginning of the 1990s and have since been known as R 4606 General Building Inspector for the Imperial Capital. In the Landesarchiv Berlin there are 1016 files as well as in the planning chamber there 1,000 sheets of the GBI under the signature A Pr.Br.Rep. 107 from the years (1935) 1937 to 1945. In addition there are files of the grave commissioner active since July 1932 and last on his behalf, the former social democratic government president Ernst von Harnack. The card index of the graves of important personalities, arranged according to city districts and cemeteries, was intended to prepare the construction of an honorary cemetery "to express the spiritual significance of the imperial capital" (148 vols., 1941-1943). With the provenance indication "Baubüro Speer", the Hauptstaatsarchiv Munich contains more than 3,000 plans for buildings mainly in Berlin (including the Reich Chancellery, Reichstag, "Haus des Führers", "Große Halle"), the party congress grounds in Nuremberg and others. Furthermore, the special archive in Moscow contains a collection of 86 files of various contents from the years 1920 to 1944 under the title Fond 1409 General Building Inspector for the Reich Capital, e.g. on the use of prisoners of war at the GBI or correspondence between Speers and authorities and private individuals. Archival evaluation and processing Before 1990, the holdings were processed both in Potsdam with the inventory designation R 46.06 and in Koblenz (R 120) up to the preparation of the finding aid book. With the merging of the holdings mentioned above, the Koblenz files received new signatures. In view of the great public interest in information from this archive stock, it was decided in 2008 to retro-convert the finding aids with the aim of publishing them on the Internet. 177 files from a transfer of files from the Bamberg State Archives from the 1980s, which deal with the construction of the High Command of the Army and the Soldiers' Hall, were indexed and subsequently recorded. In 2008, the 29 files of the head of department at GBI, Schelkes' estate documents under the previous name "Kleine Erwerbungen Nr. 864" were also added. A further takeover included the "Art in the Third Reich" component, which had been incorporated into the archives, from which 38 index units of maps and plans were allocated to the holdings and listed. The archives were already taken over by the GDR Department in 1997. However, they have not been added to the portfolio due to equal signatures, but have been managed as an extra bundle without a direct reference to the portfolio. The classifications found were largely adopted and summarised in a factual manner. The development data available up to then were partly modified and series and volume sequences formed. The internal order of the files has been maintained. The inventory has already been moved from standing folders to folders. The maps are stored in specially designed folders and cabinets.

Content and evaluation Introduction In anthropological research, concern for the deceased is regarded as one of the most important indicators of the beginning of human culture. By taking care of the burial of the mortal remains of members of one's own community, prehistoric man already revealed ideas of a beyond and a connection between individual and community that went beyond death. In the Judeo-Christian culture, burial in a coffin developed into the usual form of burial, which had to take place in a special, specially designated area, the cemetery. The inviolability of the peace of the dead, which is indispensable for Jewish burials in contrast to Christian ones, means that Jewish cemeteries are not cleared and reoccupied after certain periods of rest. As far as they escaped National Socialist barbarism, Jewish cemeteries in Baden-Württemberg were able to grow in many cases over many generations up to the present day. Since it was customary until the 20th century to mention the name of the buried person as well as the name of the father on the gravestones, these inscriptions also represent sources of the highest value for historical-genealogical research. All these cemeteries are today protected cultural monuments. On the basis of a resolution of the Baden-Württemberg state parliament in 1989, which dealt with the documentation and preservation of Jewish cemeteries in Baden Württemberg, the Baden-Württemberg State Monuments Office was commissioned to provide comprehensive documentation of all relevant gravestones. The main basis of this work were prints of photographs taken by the Central Archive for the Study of the History of Jews in Germany in Heidelberg between 1985 and 1992 of almost all Jewish gravestones in Baden-Württemberg. After completion of the project in May 2008, the copy set with around 85,000 copies was handed over to the Ludwigsburg State Archives together with the paper cemetery documentation prepared by the State Monument Office and a database with documentation results for a large part of the graves. In addition to historical, art and linguistic details, this database also contains genealogically relevant facts. In the course of a project financed by the Kulturgutstiftung Baden-Württemberg, this valuable collection was made available for online use as EL 228 b II in the State Archives of Ludwigsburg in 2011. The database, consisting of many individual tables, was prepared in a format suitable for the finding aid system of the State Archives, the entire photo stock was scanned, each photo was given an individual signature and - as far as possible - cemetery by cemetery manually linked with the database contents provided. Thus the condition of the gravestones, which has been confirmed photographically throughout 1985-1992, can be called up worldwide via the Internet in connection with the indexing data for further research. These are photographs of gravestones from over 141 cemeteries (the number of cemeteries in Baden-Württemberg differs slightly depending on the counting method used), of which 89 are located in Baden and 52 in Württemberg. The place names used in their alphabetical order follow those of the register of inventory books I and II ("Dokumentation Friedhöfe in Deutschland") of the Zentralarchiv zur Erforschung der Juden in Deutschland, Heidelberg, using today's official names (e.g. "Bad Wimpfen HN" instead of "Wimpfen (Bad)"). The census (001-143) in round brackets was used for the interlocking with the mentioned register otherwise, whereby the two cemeteries with the numbers 012 (Bremen) and 086 (Michelstadt/Hessen) are missing here, since they lie outside of Baden Württemberg. The first external web link at cemetery level (uniformly referred to as "Zentralarchiv HD") refers to the relevant entry in the online directory of Jewish cemeteries maintained by the Zentralarchiv zur Erforschung der Geschichte der Juden in Deutschland, Heidelberg. In addition to further references to the cemetery in question, details of the respective documentation process, such as the year in which the photographs were taken and the names of the persons responsible for the so-called "basic documentation", can also be found there. The grab descriptions published in the present collection can be traced back to the work of these editors. A second link ("Judaica Alemannia") leads to the homepage of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für die Erforschung der Geschichte der Juden im süddeutschen und Nachbarden Raum, which also contains further information and web links on the history of the individual cemeteries. Most of these cultural monuments now have their own entry in the online encyclopedia "Wikipedia". The relevant links are provided here as well as individual references to other relevant online projects. In the scans, an automatic compensation of brightness and contrast was omitted in order to obtain as much image information as possible, i.e. as many grayscales as possible. Many images therefore appear to be overexposed or underexposed at first, but this can be adjusted in the image presentation module using the "Brightness" selection button. This preserves a maximum of gray levels, of which a part would otherwise be lost, especially when shooting under extreme light conditions (dark gravestones in front of a snowy background/bright sky or the upper half of the stone in full sunlight, the lower half in the drop shadow of a neighbouring stone, etc.). The consecutive numbers 50689 (substitute slip), 64831-64839 (counting error during scanning) and 65961-65969 (dto.) are not assigned. Additional intermediate numbers are available: No. 2 a, 9 a, 22 a, 152 a, 1284 a, 1292 a, 1307 a, 1688 a, 2452 a, 4428 a, 4547 a, 4993 a, 8181 a, 9176 a, 9897 a, 13167 a, 16624 a, 23823 a, 30473 a, 31863 a, 32057 a, 32089 a, 32618 a, 33484 a, 33750 a, 33758 a, 34171 a, 34480 a, 35260 a, 35264 a, 36518 a, 37187 a, 39173 a, 39182 a, 39183 a, 39591 a, 40379 a, 41358 a, 43307 a, 43307 b, 43427 a, 43741 a, 44042 a, 44047 a, 44137 a, 44231 a, 45714 a, 46237 a, 46498 a, 46799 a, 47166 a, 47996 a, 48400 a, 50329 a, 53334 a, 54281 a, 57077 a, 59247 a, 60555 a, 60577 a, 60780 a, 60781 a, 66832 a, 67249 a, 74123 a, 77366 a, 79502 a, 81074 a and 82090 a. NOTE FOR SEARCH BY NAME: When searching for the names of buried persons, it is best to use the "full-text search" on the "entry page" of inventory EL 228 b II. In order to limit the number of hits for frequently occurring names to a manageable number and to avoid having to wait unnecessarily long, enter the first and last names of the person you are looking for in the Search text field, select "Every term must be found (AND)" as the link and mark "Title and heading" and "Contains notes" in the search fields.

Monument to Paul Jäschke at the cemetery of Tsingtau. Jäschke was second governor of Kiautschou from 1899-1901 / Photographer: Scherl

Carl Richard Müller was born on 2 June 1889 in Knauthain near Leipzig. After finishing school, he learned the profession of gardener from 1903-1906 and then worked in several German and Swiss towns. From the beginning of 1908 until October 1909 he had a job as a gardener at the cemetery on Casinostraße in Solingen. In 1910 and 1911 he did his military service as a naval artillerist in the German colony of Tsingtau in China. At the end of his service he concluded a contract of several years with the company Hernsheim, which traded and planted in the German colonial area of New Guinea/Bismarck Archipelago on the equator north of Australia. In 1912 he worked on the Bismarck Archipelago and the Solomon Islands Bougainville. After an eventful year in which he was able to realize his childhood dream as a planter in the South Seas for the first time, but also lost some illusions about life in the colonies, the employment contract was terminated prematurely (apparently after differences with the company) and Müller returned to Germany via Australia. Severe malaria attacks tortured him on his way home and in Germany, but his homeland could not keep him in the long run. From summer 1913 to spring 1914 he sought his fortune in Argentina, but found no satisfactory job and decided to apply for immigration to Australia. At the end of June 1914 he had the necessary entry papers and boarded the German steamer Roon in Antwerp with the destination Freemantle. When the world war broke out in August 1914 and Great Britain took the side of the German opponents, the ship had to break off the voyage to Australia and seek refuge in Dutch India. From 1914 to 1940 he worked at four different stations, from 1927 on Tandjongdjati in southern Sumatra, where he cultivated coffee and rubber, and in 1939 the Belgian owners appointed him manager. The climax of his career was followed by a sudden end. The invasion of the Netherlands by the Wehrmacht on 10 May 1940 turned German citizens into enemies in the Dutch colonial empire. For Müller and many others the period of internment began - until the end of 1941 in the Dutch camp Alasvallei in northern Sumatra, then under British control in the camp Premnagar near Dehra Dun in northern India at the foot of Hima-laya. Only in autumn 1946 the prisoner Carl Richard Müller number 56134 was released and arrived in Solingen in December 1946. Here he found work in the nursery Diederich in Wald, to which he also remained faithful as a pensioner with casual work. In 1966 he had to give up his independent life because of bad health and moved to the Eugen-Maurer-Heim in Gräfrath. There he died on 21 March 1973. The estate has preserved some of Müller's adventurous life. Müller and other prisoners used the enforced inactivity during the long internment years for writing and for lectures in their own circle. Of these works, pieces have been preserved which are of particular interest for research into German colonial rule and European planting in the South Seas. Müller's autobiographical manuscripts about the years 1912-1940, which he thought he could summarize as the "ro-man of a fortune-seeker" (documents 11 and 12 with the addition of the photographs in documents 6 and 7 and cards in documents 17 and 26), are to be mentioned first and foremost. In addition there are numerous essays by Müller on plant cultures, economic and technical problems on the plantations and abstracts on the nature and fauna of Indonesia, mainly Sumatra (documents 13 to 16). Work done by fellow prisoners on their experiences in Indonesia and Australia can be found in file 23, including a report on detention in Sumatra with a shorter annex on time in India. Relatively little is known about camp life in Dehra Dun; Müller, however, kept a booklet titled "Männerworte" (Aktenstück 5), in which 22 fellow prisoners registered themselves with words of remembrance. The photographs of Müller's life in Solingen after 1946 are primarily preserved, of which the works for Diederich may be of local historical interest (file 8). Furthermore, the collection contains a file of the Social Welfare Office of the City of Solingen. The stock was handed over to the City Archive by the Social Welfare Office in a suitcase, which was separated from the above documents at the time of recording. The stock was recorded for the first time in September 1998 by Anika Schulze, developed by Hartmut Roehr in 2007.

1. on the administrative history of the Württemberg upper offices: 1. the upper offices in their context (constitutional structure, "Staatsverein"): the administrative structure, which was created at the beginning of the 19th century for the double territory of the kingdom of Württemberg compared to the duchy, remained in place with minor changes until 1938, partly even beyond that. During this period, the Land was divided into 63 senior offices plus the Stuttgart City Council (1). The average area of an upper administrative district was around 1822 5.7 square miles = 316 square kilometres, the average number of inhabitants 20,700 (1926 : 41,604), whereby in the course of time a considerable imbalance resulted (the number of inhabitants per upper administrative district varied 1926 between 18,000 and 341,000). The four district governments, which replaced the twelve bailiwicks established in 1806 (2) in 1817, were the intermediate authorities between the individual upper offices and the ministerial level. The Württemberg constitution in force from 1819 to 1919 (3) was based on the municipalities as the "basis of the state association" (4). The higher offices had the task of bringing the administrative matters directly affecting the individual citizens, which the municipalities dealt with largely on their own responsibility, into the state administration. The problem of the greatest possible integration of all those affected by administrative measures arose for the higher offices as well as the problem of a uniform implementation of domestic government measures. The upper offices were also the constituencies for the elections to the Chamber of Deputies (5). 2. functionariesThe Ministry of the Interior delegated the responsibility for the higher office administrations to one senior official each, since the 1830s as a rule a lawyer with a university degree. As a civil servant, he was responsible for all administrative matters which were not the responsibility of the judicial (6) or fiscal (7) authorities, he was in charge of the police and (in the case of infringements) the penal authorities and he supervised the local authorities. As administrative civil servants, he was subordinate to a senior secretary and (since the second half of the 19th century) a bailiff as deputy. In addition to this administration, there was the official assembly as a body with coordination and integration functions. In it the individual municipalities of an Oberamtsbezirk were combined as an official body. The number of deputies each municipality provided depended on its share of the public burdens to be borne jointly, the "official damage". As an upper limit, a municipality was allowed to provide a maximum of one third (8) of the members of the official assembly, while small municipalities sent a joint representative. The Official Assembly met twice a year. In order to maintain its presence, it elects from among its members an executive committee, an actuary (who was at the same time an assistant to the Oberamts auditor) and appointed the Oberamtspfleger (9) as well as the other officials of the administrative body (10) as responsible for cash and accounting.Thus, according to constitutionalist theory, the responsibility for continuous, active administrative work lay with government officials, while financial regulation and control functions were carried out by a body that brought together those affected by administrative measures and those who financed them. Approaches that went beyond a representative system based purely on control and finance were not evident in the administrative sector, but rather in the area of social tasks and services, where officials of the official corporation were active. 3. limits of the uniform district organisation. It was not possible from the outset for all administrative functions to have an organisation in which (as in the case of the internal and judicial administrations) (11) the administrative districts corresponded to the regional districts. In the case of the deanery offices of the two large churches, it is clear from the regional distribution of the denomination that a district administration was not established for each upper office; nevertheless, as far as practicable, deanery and upper office boundaries were often identical. Where there were practical reasons to do so, the forestry, camera, customs and building inspectorates also had jurisdictional districts which deviated from the upper administrative districts. The decisive disruptive factor for a uniform administrative organisation at district level, the patrimonial jurisdiction of the class lord restored after 1819 by the Federal Act, was eliminated in 1849. The same applies to the special rights of independent royal and noble estates which before 1849 had not been incorporated into the municipal associations and thus not into the district administration. 4. individual important changes in the supreme official organisation1842: Due to excessive distances from the head office or other economic and traffic conditions, individual municipalities are reassigned in 31 head offices (Reg.Bl. 1842, p. 386 - 389).1850 ff: The regionally different development of the country leads to a considerable imbalance between individual districts in the course of time despite the original balance. Changes to individual divisions (e.g. dissolution of the Cannstatt regional office in 1923; dissolution of the Weinsberg regional office in 1926) do not eliminate these differences.1906: The Amtsversammlungs-Ausschuss is given the name Bezirksrat (district council) and is also consulted on the business of state administration. The Official Assembly may set up committees to monitor individual institutions and facilities of the official body. The actuary shall be replaced by a secretary elected for 3 years by the Assembly. 1933: Re-establishment of an official corporation, which is limited to an advisory function and is given the name Kreisverband. The district administrator is appointed the "leader" of the district administration. The terms Kreis (for Oberamt), Kreistag (for Amtsversammlung) and Kreisrat (for Bezirksrat) are introduced. The district council consists of the district administrator as chairman, the district leader of the NSDAP and five other members appointed by the district administrator in agreement with the district leader (Reg. Bl. 1938, pp. 51 - 72, 82, 139, 189).1938: 27 district associations are dissolved and affiliated to the remaining 34 (for the regulations and distribution of the individual municipalities see Reg. Bl. 1938, pp. 155 - 162). The city management district of Stuttgart will continue to exist as a city district. The cities of Ulm and Heilbronn (with Neckargartach and Sontheim) become town districts. Mögle-Hofacker 2. The history of the Backnang upper office: Up to the reorganization of the administration at the beginning of the 19th century, the city of Mögle-Hofacker was a part of the city. At the end of the 19th century, the area of the Backnang upper office consisted of the following parts (12): town and office Backnang (town, Reichenberger office, Ebersberger office), Murrhardt monastery office, individual parts from old Württemberg offices (Marbach office, Weinsberger office - Böhringsweiler lower office), Löwensteinsiche and storm feather possessions (Württemberg fiefdom) as well as possessions of the Schöntal monastery.From 1806 the upper office Backnang was first assigned to the district Heilbronn, belonged after the division of the dukedom into bailiwicks in 1810 to the bailiwick at the lower Necker and was subordinate since 1817 to the district government of the Neckar circle. The composition of the municipalities of the Oberamtbezirk listed below essentially lasted until the National Socialist administrative reform of 1938. As a result of the new district division decreed on 1 October 1938, the Backnang district became the legal successor of the Backnang district (Oberamt). With the exception of Neufürstenhütte, the former communities remained in the Backnang district. Further communities were assigned to him from the following (now dissolved) districts or upper offices: District Gaildorf: Gaildorf, Altersberg, Eutendorf, Fichtenberg, Frickenhofen, Gschwendt, Hausen an der Roth, Laufen am Kocher, Oberrot, Ottendorf, Sulzbach am Kocher and Unterrot.District (Oberamt) Marbach: Affalterbach, Allmersbach am Weinberg, Burgstall, Erbstetten, Kirchberg an der Murr, Kleinaspach, Nassach, Rielingshausen, and Weiler zum Stein.district (Oberamt) Welzheim: Kirchenkirnberg.on January 1, 1973 the district Backnang was finally dissolved. The legal successor became the Rems-Murr-Kreis. 3. statistical data and list of municipalities: Area : 283.44 sqkminhabitants: 31,944municipalities: 30 (2 towns, 28 municipalities)markings: 119places: 1991.

History of registries and holdings: The holdings F 152 III, which were newly catalogued from July to December 2004, consist of three parts: On the one hand, these are files that were delivered to the Ludwigsburg State Archives by the Backnang branch of the Waiblingen State Health Department in 1976 as part of a larger file delivery and assigned to the Oberamtsbestand (1 m; Bü 1-30). The second and largest part of the collection consists of documents that the District Office of the Rems-Murr District submitted in 1974 and 1975 at the insistence of the State Archives Administration (13.3 mf. m; Bü 31-391 and Bü 393-446)(13) A large part of these files, for which so far no finding aid was available, had been torn from their context of origin by self-proclaimed "district archivists" in the district offices Backnang and Waiblingen. In the Backnang District Office local and material pertinences had been formed which could not be returned continuously to the original order of the records and which were recorded in the last classification point as "local pertinences". In addition, the structure of the entire portfolio is based on the Flattich file plan, which also contained documents with the following third-party provenances that were segregated in the course of the registration work: Oberamtspflege Backnang: Invoice receipts, sorted by property and local pertinence (6.5 m), were assigned to F 717. Oberamt Gaildorf: Property files; partly sorted by municipalities (4 m), will in future form F 166 IV. Oberamt Marbach: Property files; partly sorted according to municipalities (4 m), were included in the inventory F 182 III. Oberamt Welzheim: Property files concerning the parish of Kirchenkirnberg (0.3 m running) form the inventory F 214 III.the files of the district office Backnang (0.4 m running) were included in the inventory FL 20/2 I.the third part of the inventory F 152 III originates from the inventory FL 20/2 I district office Backnang (10.2 m running; Bü 392 and Bü 447-935). These files, which had subsequently been arranged in the registry of the District Office according to the Flattich file plan, had previously only been indexed by a delivery list with file plan numbers and associated package numbers. This information can be found in the present finding aid book as a presignature. In the course of the revision of the inventory FL 20/2 I, documents of the provenances Oberamt Gaildorf (9 linear metres), Oberamt Marbach (1.5 linear metres) and Oberamt Welzheim (0.3 linear metres) were also sorted out and assigned to the respective inventories listed above (F 166 IV, F 182 III and F 214 III).In terms of content, the holdings excellently illustrate the diverse tasks of the Backnang Oberamt in large parts and thus supplement the previous Oberamt tradition, which the Staatsarchiv Ludwigsburg holds in the holdings F 152 I, F 152 II (volumes) and F 152 IV (construction files). Also in the inventory FL 20/2 I Landratsamt Backnang there are - especially from the transitional period of the 1930s and 1940s - files that were created in the Oberamt. Further documents of the Oberamt Backnang can be found in the district archive of the Rems-Murr-Kreis in Waiblingen (fonds A1: Oberamt Backnang). Stock F 152 III comprises 935 units of registration, 24.5 metres of shelving. It contains documents with pre- and post-files from the period from 1701 to 1973, with the emphasis of the tradition on the period from the second half of the 19th to the first third of the 20th century. The files with the order signatures Bü 660, Bü 661, Bü 711 and Bü 719 are still subject to the personal blocking periods according to § 6 para. 2 of the Landesarchivgesetz.Ludwigsburg, December 2004Dr. Matthias Röschner NachtragF 152 III Bü 936-976 were spun off there in 2011 by Dorothea Bader in the course of the indexing of fonds F 166 IV and reassigned to the present fonds according to their provenance. Footnotes: (1) 63 of the 65 districts of the Oberamtsbezirk of 1808 remained after 1819: In 1819 the districts Ulm and Albeck had been joined to the Oberamtsbezirk Ulm. In 1811 the intermediate instance (at that time bailiwick bailiwicks), which had been generally inserted for the upper offices, was no longer applicable to the ministerial level of the Stuttgart city administration district. When in 1822 the city directorate of Stuttgart was again aligned with the higher offices, it was nevertheless no longer listed as a higher office, but always independently.(2) The first bailiwicks had been introduced in 1803 for Neuwürttemberg. The district governments existed until 1924.(3) See A.E. Adam. A century of Württemberg constitution, 1919.(4) Constitutional document § 62; Regierungsblatt of 1819, p. 645.(5) The deputies of the Second Chamber, who had not been sent out as representatives of specific interests (knighthood, representatives of both large churches, chancellors of the universities, guided tours), were each elected in the 63 upper offices and the 7 "good cities" (Stuttgart, Tübingen, Ludwigsburg, Ellwangen, Ulm, Heilbronn, Reutlingen).(6) The higher administrative courts established for each higher office in 1811 originally met under the chairmanship of the higher official. Since 1819 (edict about the Oberamtsverammlungen of 31.12.1818) they were independent. The separation of the judiciary and administration was thus completed at district level; the chief magistrate was confronted by the chief magistrate.(7) Property and income of the state were administered by the camera offices (omanial, construction, forestry administration). In the course of the 19th century, they finally developed into district coffers or district tax offices. In 1895 the alignment of the camera office districts with the upper office districts was completed.(8) From 1881 two fifths; cf. Grube, Vogteien, Ämter, Landkreise in der Geschichte Südwestdeutschland, 3rd edition 1975.(9) The senior official nurse received a seat and advisory vote in the official meeting, but was not allowed to be the municipal computer of the senior official city at the same time.(10) Above all, the official doctor, senior official veterinarian, senior official master builder, senior official street builder. (11) Each district court was responsible for one district of the Oberamt.(12) For the history of the authorities of the Oberamt see the preface by Walter Wannenwetsch in the Findbuch des Rems-Murr-Kreisarchivs für den Bestand A1 Oberamt Backnang 1806 - 1938.

Description of the holdings: From the independent departments of the Wehrmachtamt (from 1 March 1929 to 13 February 1936 referred to as the "Ministeramt"), the "Inland" and "Wehrmachtversorgung" departments were reorganised in the course of the reorganisation of the "Oberkommando der Wehrmacht" (High Command of the Wehrmacht) from 4 March 1929 to 13 February 1936. Until the beginning of the war, it had been assigned not only the Domestic Department and the Wehrmacht Welfare and Supply Department, but also a Department for Wehrmacht Administration and Wehrmacht Specialist Schooling, as well as a Department for Science. With the expansion of the previous official groups within the OKW into ¿offices¿ from November 1939, the official group was given the name of ¿General Wehrmachtamt¿ (AWA), which was valid until 1945, and, after the allocation of competencies for loss- and prisoner-of-war affairs, comprised seven departments and three smaller organizational units, including two liaison officers at the "Deputy of the Führer" and at the ¿Youth Leader of the German Reich¿. In the spring of 1941, the division was expanded once again to include the office of the "Plenipotentiary of the Supreme Command of the Wehrmacht for Settlement Issues" and by the appointment of inspectors for the welfare and supply offices, the prisoner of war system and the Wehrmacht grave officers. In 1944, finally, the merger of larger areas of competence into official groups (for welfare and supply matters, technical schools and settlement issues as well as for the Wehrmacht administration) was carried out. At the beginning of 1944, responsibility for the "national political training" of the Wehrmacht was transferred to the head of the NS management staff in the OKW, whose office was held by the head of the AWA (General der Infanterie Reinecke) in personal union. Preprovenience: Department of Domestic Affairs and Armed Forces Supply, Division of General Armed Forces Affairs Content Characterisation: The main part of the tradition comes from the Department of Domestic Affairs, which is responsible for relations with the civil administration and the NSDAP. These include files on internal affairs and internal security 1919-1940 (ban on associations and films, espionage); treatment of the racial issue (1933-1944); relationship with the NSDAP (including differences over military policy, incidents 1933-1937); proceedings against soldiers before party courts 1942-1943; treatment of Jewish front fighters 1933-1938; foreign issues (including Secret files "Foreign States" 1922 to 1939, assessments of the situation and descriptions 1925 to 1939); disarmament (1933-1936); international law (1940-1941); dealings with the Federal Foreign Office (among others Deployment of military and naval attachés 1933-1938, stay of ships abroad 1935-1939); domestic political situation and annexation of Austria (1934-1939); national defence and spatial planning (1935-1938); personnel affairs of the Wehrmacht and the army (u. a.
