Regiment history: The regiment was established on 1 April 1890. At the outbreak of war, it was part of the 58th Infantry Brigade (29th Infantry Division). at the beginning of the war, each infantry regiment, including the Reserve and Landwehr Infantry Regiments, had set up a replacement battalion for the training of replacements. In January 1915 the erection of another replacement battalion was ordered. In addition to the training, new troops were set up by the replacement battalions. The 1st Replacement Battalion was erected at the beginning of August 1914 and stationed in Müllheim. The Second Replacement Battalion was erected in February 1915 and moved to Heitersheim. As a result of the demobilisation, from 2 May 1919 only the General Command, four higher dissolution staffs and one liquidation post each for each of the infantry and artillery regiments that were part of the peace budget before 1914 remained in the area of the XIV Army Corps. As a reaction to the so-called "Spartacus Uprising" in February 1919, the Reich and Badische Volksregierung had further voluntary associations set up at all units in addition to the existing voluntary formations. Inventory history: After the end of the war, the files remained with the settlement office of Infantry Regiment No. 142. From January 1920, the establishment of an archive of the XIV Army Corps began, in which the archives of the settlement offices were brought together. In autumn 1920 the corps archive moved to the infantry barracks in Heilbronn. From January 1921, the Corps Archives entered the portfolio of the Reich Ministry of the Interior under the name Aktenverwaltung XIV, before being incorporated into the Reichsarchiv in Potsdam as the Heilbronn archive branch on April 1, 1921. As a result of the merger of the Heilbronn and Stuttgart branches of the Reich Archives, the holdings were transferred to Stuttgart in 1924. The Württembergische Archivdirektion, which after the end of the Second World War took over the administration of the holdings of the Stuttgart Army Archives, handed over the records of the XIV Army Corps to the General State Archive in Karlsruhe between 1947 and 1949.
