1. biography: Karl Joseph Wilhelm Florestan Gero Crescentius Prince of Urach Count of Württemberg was born on 15 February 1865 in Ulm as the younger son of Wilhelm (I.) Duke of Urach and Florestine Duchess of Urach née Princess of Monaco (1); the prince attended the primary school and the Jesuit grammar school in Monaco (2) together with his older brother Wilhelm (II.) Duke of Urach. In 1877 he moved to the Jesuit educational institution of Our Lady Stella matutina in Feldkirch. After a further change of school in 1881, he graduated from the Karlsgymnasium in Stuttgart in 1883 and studied for two semesters at the University of Munich (3) from 1883 to 1884. There he attended lectures in metaphysics and history of Greek philosophy with the professor of philosophy and later Bavarian Prime Minister and German Chancellor Georg Graf von Hertling (1843-1919) as well as lectures in political science with the journalist and writer Professor Wilhelm Heinrich Riehl (1823-1897). 1883 he was appointed second lieutenant à la suite of the Ulan regiment King Karl (1st Württ.) No. 19 (4). In April 1886 Prince Karl entered the active service of this regiment, but had to leave the active service due to illness. In March 1887, the prince retired as an officer à la suite from the active service of the regiment. In the following years the prince was granted the usual promotions for a member of the House of Württemberg under the position à la suite of the regiment: in 1887 he was appointed prime lieutenant, in 1891 cavalry master, in 1899 cavalry major and in 1906 lieutenant colonel. From 1884, Karl Fürst von Urach travelled extensively (5): from 1884 to 1886 he travelled South America, visiting the Cordilleras and studying the Indian tribes on the upper reaches of the Amazon (6). He later handed over the ethnological collection he acquired during his journey to the Linden Museum in Stuttgart. Also in the time after 1887 he often stayed in Italy, Greece, in the Balkans, in Egypt, where he owned real estate in Heliopolis near Cairo (7), and in the Ottoman Empire. In 1891 he took part in an expedition to Spitsbergen (8), in 1893 the prince travelled to the USA(9). The few documents on the trip to the USA (especially letters of recommendation) (10) that are preserved in the present inventory suggest that this trip was also used for ethnological studies of Indian tribes. So he learned Turkish, Arabic and Persian. Last but not least, between 1893 and 1925 the prince had Arab rooms (11) built into his palace on Neckarstraße in Stuttgart, which he decorated with furniture, carvings, tiles, works made of plaster stucco, carpets and other antiques from the Orient. During the First World War, Prince Karl was finally able to use his language skills and the knowledge he had acquired about this region during his many journeys to the Orient for his work as a German liaison officer in the Ottoman Empire (12). He performed this function between 1916 and 1917, when Prince Karl took over several honorary offices. He was president of the Württemberg group of the German Colonial Society (13) and member of the Württemberg regional association of the German Fleet Association (14). He supported the Society for the Promotion of German Settlements in Palestine (15). He also supported the work of the airship designer Ferdinand Graf von Zeppelin by subscribing to shares in the company for the promotion of airship travel (16).Karl Fürst von Urach was awarded numerous orders in the course of his life (17): in 1883 the Prince received the Monegasque Order of Saint Charles, in 1889 the Grand Cross of the Persian Order of the Sun and Lions (18), in 1897 the Ottoman Order of First Class, in 1899 the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Medal. In 1910 he was awarded the Prussian Red Eagle Order. In 1916 he received the Wilhelmskreuz with swords and crown, one year later the royal Hungarian Order of Saint Stephen and the Iron Cross 2nd class. Karl Fürst von Urach died on 5 December 1925 in Stuttgart. He was buried in the Catholic section of the crypt of the castle church Ludwigsburg. 2. to the order and distortion of the stock:: Together with the Archive of the Dukes and Princes of Urach Grafen von Württemberg, the GU 120 collection was deposited in the Main State Archives in 1987. There, the archives of the House of Urach form the GU series of inventories within the inventory classification (tectonics). During the reorganization of the archive by Wolfgang Schmierer, Director of the Archive, the documents on Karl Fürst von Urach were given the signature GU 120, and since the materials were in a poor state of order, the units of registration had to be formed for the most part first. Where it made sense, the existing units were retained. During the indexing work, extensive documents were removed from the GU 120 holdings and assigned in particular to the GU 96 (Miscellaneous and Unclear), GU 100 (Foreign Archives and Other Collections), GU 107 (Florestine Duchess of Urach), GU 117 (Wilhelm (II.) Duke of Urach) and GU 202 (Bertha Freiin von Biegeleben) holdings. Moreover, it cannot be ruled out that further material of the provenance of Karl Fürst von Urach may be found in the as yet unlisted holdings of the House of Urach. by far the largest part of the holdings consists of the extensive correspondence of the Prince (category 2), above all with his mother (category 2.1.1) with his brother Wilhelm and his family (category 2.1.2) as well as with Bertha von Biegeleben (category 2.1.5). The latter was the court lady of his mother Florestine and a close confidante of the prince. In addition, correspondence with representatives of the German and European ruling and former ruling princely houses can be found in the holdings (Section 2.5). Karl Fürst von Urach also corresponded with numerous public figures (section 2.7), including scholars. Almost all correspondence is so-called unilateral correspondence, that is, only the letters of the correspondence partner are found in the existing stock. If there are isolated letters or drafts of letters from the Reigning Prince to the respective addressee, this is expressly mentioned in the title recording. Usually these are letters of the prince returned to the prince or his family afterwards. It should also be noted that Prince Karl did not make any copies of his correspondence. The correspondences can be regarded as an interesting source for the history of everyday life and mentality of the nobility. They show the manifold contacts which the prince maintained with members of other noble families. They also certainly offer details of the Prince's numerous journeys. However, it was not possible to index the contents of the correspondence due to the time and effort involved. Unfortunately, the correspondences and correspondence series contained in this collection sometimes have smaller gaps. It is not possible at the present time to answer the question of whether the previously unlisted holdings of the archives of the House of Urach still contain correspondence of the prince. Besides the correspondence, the extensive collections of photos and photographs (category 10) form the second largest part of the holdings in terms of the number of title recordings. Of particular interest are the photos and photo albums with photos from the Prince's numerous travels to South America, Egypt, the Ottoman Empire and the Balkans (Section 10.2.2). There are also photos taken during the aforementioned activity of the prince as a liaison officer in the Ottoman Empire during the First World War (section 10.2.4). Prince Karl's interest in Islamic (Arabic) art is also reflected in the numerous photographs of buildings and artworks of Islamic art, which are combined in section 10.3. Of the other materials preserved in the present collection, the Prince's manuscripts with literary and art-historical texts and a memorandum on the political reorganization of Europe by Germany in the First World War should also be mentioned, as well as interesting documents on the associations and societies in which the Prince was active and in which he was active. In an appendix (column 16) photos, an album and seal from the possession of the Wera Duchess of Württemberg née Grand Duchess of Russia are united, which after the death of the Duchess were handed over by her daughter Olga Prinzessin zu Schaumburg-Lippe to Karl Fürst von Urach.In addition, correspondences of the brother of Karl Fürst von Urach, Wilhelm (II.) Duke of Urach, to Charlemagne's estate, to the Arab rooms and to a newspaper article about the princes were added to the collection (19). Since these materials refer to Karl Fürst von Urach, the classification into the present holdings seemed to be reasonable. As expected, documents on Karl Fürst von Urach are also available in other holdings of the archives of the House of Urach. In particular the holdings GU 99 (photo albums and collections), GU 107 (Florestine Herzogin von Urach née Prinzessin von Monaco), GU 117 (Wilhelm (II.) Herzog von Urach) and GU 202 (Bertha von Biegeleben) are to be mentioned here. the archives of the holdings may only be inspected with the prior permission of the chief of the House of Urach. the holdings GU 120 were catalogued by the undersigned from autumn 2004 to April 2005. It comprises 4.6 running meters with 318 numbers.Stuttgart, in April 2005Eberhard Merk footnotes: (1) For Karl Fürst von Urach see above: Article by Wolfgang Schmierer in: The House of Württemberg.

Inventory description: Abt. 186 Familienarchiv Leonhard von Heyl/Nonnenhof (Dep.) Scope: 307 archive boxes; one box with oversized formats; 2.5 linear metres with flat and rolled oversized formats (= 2165 units of registration = 33 linear metres, incl. film rolls, photo negatives, etc.) Duration: 1760 - 1985 Take-over and distortion According to a note from Dr. At the end of June 2002, Mathilde Grünewald (Museum der Stadt Worms) became known to the municipal archives that the owner of the Heylschen Gutes Nonnenhof (Bobenheim), Dr. Ludwig von Heyl, was interested in handing over the family archive of his uncle Leonhard von Heyl (1924-1983) to the municipal archives. Dr. Grünewald presented the archive with an overview of the material stored in the Forsthaus Nonnenhof, which she had prepared during a visit to the storage rooms. The archive then contacted Dr. von Heyl and agreed to conclude a deposit agreement with the usual provisions (retention of title, etc.). In the first half of August 2002, the City Archives, headed by Dr. Gerold Bönnen and Mrs. Margit Rinker-Olbrisch, Dipl.-Archivarin (FH), sifted through the documents stored in two rooms of the forester's lodge that was to be renovated, signed and recorded the first part directly on site (input as a Word list, title entry/term determination of approx. 800 units of registration) and prepared it for transport. All the materials, a large part of which were stored in files, the rest either loose (in boxes) or as folders, were taken to the city archives on August 9, 2002, the listed part was placed directly in the cellar of the Ernst-Ludwig-Schule, the unlisted documents were sent to the Raschi-Haus for further processing, including approx. 15 35mm film rolls, photographs (negatives and prints), maps and plans. Margit Rinker-Olbrisch recorded the remaining documents including a classification and an index (see below) in the period from August 2002 to April 2003. The total volume of the documents amounts to approx. 40 linear metres (1806 units of distortion). With a few exceptions (account statements, statements of account, printed circulars), no cassations were made. In spring/summer 2010, the existing documents, which had only been included in the Word list in August 2002 with a file title and running time (approx. 800 numbers), were subsequently indexed. They have now been recorded in greater depth, in order to be included in the work on Heyl's anthology "Die Wormser Industriellenfamilie von Heyl. Public and private activities between bourgeoisie and nobility" as sources for further evaluation. At the same time, the blocking periods were changed or lifted in accordance with the requirements of the State Archives Act for Rhineland-Palatinate, which was amended in September 2010. Classification Since the documents did not show any internal order when they were accepted, a classification was developed in the course of the processing of the material which endeavours to reflect the essential content focal points and different personal connections and provenances on the part of the family members involved. It was not always possible to separate family and private affairs from the closely interwoven business affairs of the company or companies and their financial implications. The boundaries in the classification are therefore often less sharp than the outline might suggest. In addition, some of the documents were recorded relatively quickly on site before the takeover at a lesser depth than others; in particular, the documents on Leonhard von Heyl and the history of the Nonnenhof were generally less intensively catalogued than the actual older records on the company and family. Contents, value and significance The 186 Department is divided into three main parts of approximately equal size: 1. the personal estate of Leonhard von Heyl (personal and study documents, correspondence, activities in associations and committees, including the Wormser Altertumsverein (chair 1966-1983), agricultural organisations and the Palatine Landeskirche). The period of this part of the documents lies between about 1940 and the death in 1983 with few pieces of the time shortly after. 2. documents on the development of the Nonnenhof near Bobenheim, which has been family-owned since the 19th century, and its management, with a focus on the period from around 1920 to 1960. 3. documents on the history of the von Heyl family, including Cornelius Wilhelm von Heyl (1843-1923), including part of his estate, which had previously been believed to be lost, with a high value for questions of politics, patronage, public activity and economic activity. Of particular value are various archival indexes of the time after the death of 1923 (no. 582, typewritten, approx. 80 p., apparently incompletely preserved), compiled after the successful indexing and arrangement of the files found in the private archives of Freiherr Dr. von Heyl zu Herrnsheim, November 1928, thus available in the archive 2827 folders in 14 groups; no. 820; no. 821; no. 1272 hs. lineup). Cornelius Wilhelm's wife Sophie née Stein (1847-1915) is the subject of numerous documents, including further archival records on the history of the Stein family of bankers in Cologne. Of particular value are documents on Cornelius Wilhelm's brother General Maximilian von Heyl (1844-1925) and his wife Doris (1848-1930), including numerous files on the Heylshof Darmstadt and their patronage activities in Worms and Darmstadt, as well as correspondence. For the aforementioned personalities, the collection contains extremely valuable archival material that places our knowledge of the history of the family and its manifold effects and activities in the fields of politics and art, public and economic life - especially in the field of art conservation - on a much broader footing. Extensive material provides information about the family's internal disputes and conflicts; a great deal of correspondence provides deep insights into the personal interdependencies and contacts of the widely ramified family. The distinctive self-stylisation and self-portrayal of the family and its relatives occupies a special position, for which the collection contains extensive material. The original photographs (mainly glass plates with private photos of the family of Ludwig Freiherrn von Heyl, 1886-1962) were partly taken over by the photo department and remain there (cf. Dept. 186 No. 1707). The 35mm films belonging to Heyl-Liebenau's 1944 film project are currently in the Federal Archive in Berlin, where they are to be digitized. The oldest documents in the collection date back to about 1720. The main focus of the tradition lies in the period from approx. 1880 to approx. 1930. Conservation status and usability To a small extent, the documents are affected by the effects of moisture; some are very fragile and endangered copy paper, some (K) of which has been replaced by legible photocopies (No. 53, 960, 962, 963, 967, 968, 979, 980, 984 -986, 993, 1027, 1060 (K), 1079 (K), 1080 (K), 1094 (K), 1102-1104 (K), 1115, 1198). For reasons of data protection, part of the documents relating to Leonhard Freiherr von Heyl (tax matters, personal documents) is blocked from use; the same applies to the private interests of some other family members. In case of doubt, the archive is obliged to contact the owner. Related and complementary archive departments in the City Archives First and foremost are to be mentioned here: - 170/26 Family von Heyl - 180/1 Heylsche Lederwerke Liebenau - 185 Family and Company Archives Ludwig Cornelius Freiherr von Heyl (Depositum) With the latter stock the Dept. 186 shows very close interdependencies; the extensive documents located here are pleasingly supplemented.

On the Collection of Paintings by Cornelius Wilhelm and Sophie von Heyl, pp. 51-71) Dr. Gerold Bönnen/Margit Rinker-Olbrisch Worms, June 2003 / October 2010 Supplement In February 2014, Dr. Ludwig v. Heyl (Nonnenhof) drew attention to newly found documents which were still stored in the so-called Försterbau from the property of his uncle Leonhard. The pieces were sighted on 27 February by Mrs. Margit Rinker-Olbrisch and archive director Dr. Gerold Bönnen and taken over for the most part to supplement the collection of Dept. 186. Mrs. Rinker-Olbrisch completed the indexing by the end of March. 129 new VE (of which 17 sub-numbers) were added to the inventory of Dept. 186. The material, partly large format, includes written material, numerous photographs (also albums) and graphics. Four pieces clearly belonging to Ludwig C. von Heyl or his son of the same name were incorporated into the collection of Dept. 185 (family and company archive Ludwig C. Freiherr von Heyl). However, individual archival records concerning Ludwig C. von Heyl, which Leonhard von Heyl had integrated into his holdings, were also left in this context and added to the classification group for Ludwig C. von Heyl and his wife Eva-Marie von Heyl née von der Marwitz in Dept. 186. Among the new additions were newspaper editions (several times) of the decease, the funeral ceremonies and the funeral of Cornelius Wilhelm Freiherr von Heyl zu Herrnsheim ( 1923) as well as a Bible and a hymnal from the possession of Alice von Heyl (1881-1969), the latter having a leather binding designed by Otto Hupp (Dept. 186 No. 1805). It is pleasing to note that with the takeover of the company and visiting books (beginning in 1894-1899, followed by Lücke until 1909, ending in 1914; Abt. 186 Nr. 1806-1809), information about the social life at Heylshof Worms, Schloss Herrnsheim and hunting societies could be added to the collection. Important for the reconstruction of the former archive of C. W. von Heyl is the extensive almost complete archive directory (Dept. 186 No. 1813), which together with the already existing few parts (Dept. 186 No. 582) is now complete. Furthermore an album is to be emphasized in the character of a family book, which Cornelius Wilhelm von Heyl had been given by his parents and contains entries of relatives, friends etc. in particular from the time of his stay in the Institut der Herrnhuter Brüdergemeine in Neuwied (Dept. 186 No. 1829; running time 1856-1859). Individual pieces of the archival documents taken over wear decorative leather covers, here two are to be emphasized. On the one hand there is a "Photographisches Album von Sehensüwrdigkeiten der Stadt Worms" (1881; Dept. 186 No. 1880), which was probably published in connection with the consecration of the museum in the Paulusstift at that time, and on the other hand a photo album "Zur Erinnerung an den Fackelzug 8. April 1886" on the occasion of the elevation to the nobility (Dept. 186 No. 1881) with numerous group photographs (different groups of persons from the leather factory), made by the Worms photographer Fritz Winguth. Besides there are photo albums of Sophie von Heyl (1918-1980) from her stay in the women's school Metgethen (near Königsberg) and in the deaconess institution in Halle, vacation among other things and albums of Leonhard von Heyl. He also took over series of correspondence with letters to his parents. They begin in his childhood (from 1932), cover his war and study years and end in 1959. Of the large-format pieces (photographs, graphics), a large-format photograph of the Heylshof in Darmstadt stands out, some of which is covered with a drawing for a planned, generous but not executed extension (Dept. 186 No. 1894). This sketch could have been made by the architect Gabriel von Seidl. C. Battenfeld drew in detail various sculptures and building elements which can presumably be assigned to the Heylshof Darmstadt (a large-format sheet, Dept. 186 No. 1894).
