In 1887, the church and school supplies that had previously been administered by Department I were separated as separate Department II, while the former Department II (direct taxes, domains and forests) was given the designation Department III. The church matters formed Division II Q. In 1921 the foundations and legacies, insofar as they were intended for church purposes, and in 1935 the church matters of the Jews were transferred from Department I L (sovereignty of the Land and judicial matters; see also there!) to the church department, while the other foundations and legacies in 1935 were transferred from Department I L to Department I S (see I S No. 207 et seq.). From 1926 to 1935, the church department also included the church collection system and the support of the Bethel Institutions (until 1926 for Department I P, since 1935 for Department I S). Since 1956, the churches and school supplies have been the responsibility of Division IV of the Government; the holdings M 1 II A are therefore continued in the holdings D 1 Abt. IV. The basic order of the files listed below goes back to St.A.Dir. Dr. Leesch, who in 1958 took up the files handed over to the State Archives Münster in the additions 41/38, 3/39, 20/48. With the incorporation of the delivery 7/61 of the government Detmold to the state archives Detmold, by which the former registry II Q could be almost completely restored, the rewriting of the find book became necessary; this opportunity was used to produce at the same time a new continuous number sequence. The concordance at the end of the volume makes it possible to find the files that were used earlier and quoted after the old designation. For use: Transactions concerning branch churches and chapels, even if special files are available, must always also be searched for in the files relating to the parish responsible. To be quoted is: M 1 II A No. ... Detmold, signed in July 1971. Wehlt The typewritten finding aid from 1971 was written off in 2002 with the program MIDOSA 95.

Preliminary remarks History of the authorities: 1855 June Establishment of an independent "Princely Forest Directorate" 1897 June Integration into the Rentkammer as "Forest Department" 1921 April Directorate of Domains and Forests, Forest Department 1924 August Lippische Regierung, Forest Department 1934 October Lippische Regierung Abt. II, Staatsforstverwaltung 1936 June The Reich Governor in Lippe and Schaumburg-L., Landesregierung Lippe, ... 1945 April Lippische Landesregierung, Abteilung II, Landesforstverwaltung 1948 Nov. 1948 Transfer of the forestry department to the Landesverband Lippe (company about the unification of the state of Lippe with the state of North Rhine-Westphalia and company about the Landesverband Lippe, both from 05.11.1948) The tasks of the state forestry administration were 1. in the exercise of the sovereign rights of the state with regard to forestry, hunting and fishing 2. in the management of state-owned forestry Even at the end of World War I, forestry sovereign activity was based on the "Ordinance on the Management of Private and Community Timber" of 1819 (Landesverordnungen Bd. 6, p. 459 ff.); there was no forestry law. With the establishment of the Forest Directorate in 1855, a service instruction for foresters and forest marksmen was issued (see L 94 No. 42) and the division into 13 senior forest rangers (later amended several times) as well as official and service designations were determined. At the beginning of the year 1919 the old Domanial forest administration still existed with the 8 upper foresteries Hiddesen (2132 ha), Berlebeck (3093 ha), (Kohlstädt-)Horn resp. Oesterholz (2940 ha), Schieder (2935 ha), Falkenhagen (2713 ha), Sternberg (1913 ha), Langenholzhausen (1806 ha) and Detmold (672 ha), altogether 35 foresteries with an area of approx. 18,200 ha. - Hiddesen was the former Oberförsterei Lopshorn with seat in the Heidental (renaming 15.11.1918), Langenholzhausen the previous Obf. Varenholz with headquarters in Langenholzhausen, Detmold was called Diestelbruch until 30.05.1912. The seat of the Obf. Oesterholz was renamed to Obf. Horn moved from Oesterholz hunting lodge to the city on 01.08.1927 (Official Gazette No. 62), in 1929 the seat of the Obf. Sternberg into the castle Brake; in addition the merger of Sternberg and Detmold to the Obf took place to 01.01.1929. Brake. By the Domanialvertrag of 31.10.1919 the princely house received the Oberförsterei Berlebeck with the four foresteries Hirschberg, Hirschsprung, Hartröhren and Kreuzkrug. The main task of the State Forestry Administration in the 1920s was the step from administration to "operation", which was caused by modern economic development. The corresponding documentation therefore also takes up a great deal of space. In October 1934, the names of the authorities, offices and services were redefined on the basis of the new regulations introduced in Prussia (see current No. 592). Oberförsterei became Forstamt, Försterei became Revierförsterei. The chief forester became a land forester, a state chief forester a forester, a forester a district forester. Former auxiliary foresters were now called foresters, forest assistants auxiliary foresters, foresters and forest apprentices forest candidates (for administrative service / operational service). Until 1921 the forestry administration was housed in the building of the Fürstliche Forstdirektion, Hornsche Str. 66, built in 1866. After its sale to the company Gebr. Klingenberg, the offices were moved on 1 October to the converted building of the former Fürstliches Marstall am Schlossplatz / Rosenthal (see L 94 No. 10). In June 1924, the company moved again to the government building at Kaiser-Wilhelm-Platz and in August it was incorporated as the Lippische Regierung, Forstabteilung (see current no. 597). Julius Feye was the first "forester" of Lippe until his death in October 1896. From May 1897 until his death on 18.04.1925, Oberlandforstmeiser Alois Baldenecker, formerly Prussian Oberförster from Neukirchen, Kassel district, headed the Lippe forestry administration. He was followed by Alfred Reier from Syke near Bremen as a land forester from March 1926 onwards, after provisional management by forester Karl Schmidt from Hiddesen, but he was already retired at the end of July 1933 before reaching the age of 65 (he was born on 18.06.1879) "in order to simplify the state government". The aforementioned forester Schmidt was now to head the state forestry administration in addition to his head forester Hiddesen. However, since it soon turned out that it was impossible to exercise both offices, Dr. Köster, a trainee forestry officer, was hired by the Hiddesen forestry office from November 1935. Schmidt (*15.11.1871) held his office as land forester until shortly before he reached the age of 67 (October 1938), but resumed his duties when his successor Fritz Murmann from Bielefeld was drafted for military service and finally - after an interim U.K. position - fell in December 1942. It was not until 1 March 1946 that Schmidt finally retired, after Alfred Hirsekorn, the Lord Forester from Rinkerode, had been appointed the provisional head of the State Forestry Administration in January of the same year. However, he made his office available in May and was replaced by Otto Wahl from Celle. About 9/10 of the holdings (No. 1-878) originate from the addition 47/1976, which was arranged according to the file plan introduced in 1927 ("conversion of the forest department's registry according to the state budget", see current No. 590) and was valid until the files were handed over to the Landesverband Lippe in 1949. Nos. 879-892 came into the house as entrance 37/1962, No. 893-971 were already signed as L 80 II c No. 1-9, but not listed. At the beginning of 2003, 27 business diaries (journals) were discovered on the access floor (Nos. 972-998). The files essentially cover the period from the creation of the new department registries in 1924 (see current No. 597 and L 75 IV / 1 No. 20) until the transition to the forest department of the regional association; many file covers bear the note "angelegt 1927". Previous files are in stock L 94 (Forstdirektion); continued files or files created only in 1950 and later were assigned to stock D 110. The transfer of file management to the LVL proved to be extremely blurred. The forest department of the government existed until 1949. Very many files contain still some few documents from the years 1950-1951, rarely also 1952. These files were left, if the contents had developed far predominantly in the years until 1949, with the existence L 80.19, since otherwise only one torso would have remained. Obviously, the LVL created new files from 1951/52 and transferred the old registry to the State Archives in 1976. The above-mentioned file plan formed the basis for the order of the inventory, which, however, required numerous changes. General files on the establishment and organisation of the forest administration, for example, ranked 7th among the title groups. Different groups of files had to be grouped or subdivided. Nos 879 et seq. could easily be attributed to the positions of the file plan used. Although the main task of the forest administration was the management of the state forest, the collection also offers a wealth of contemporary historical sources, e.g. for the use of prisoners of war, environmental pollution (fisheries control), tourism, state economic policy (Dörentruper Sand- und Thonwerke, Holzverkohlung Schieder), buildings such as the "Krumme Haus" and the silver mill; - during the Nazi era there were numerous points of contact with the party and various Nazi organizations.

During the 18th century, the archive and registry of the Lippe government, which had been in one hand for centuries, were so confused that it was necessary to remedy the situation in order to rationalise the administrative work. A more precise definition and delimitation of the terms "registry" and "archive" can be omited here, especially since it had long since been carried out and oriented itself to the terms "current" and "legally effective". The attempt of 1749 to achieve a continuous order of the registry by means of a repertory alphabeticum was not particularly successful, for already in 1771 the walking secretary Clausing complained that the old order was completely obsolete by handing it over to the archive (with the appointment of the Archivrat Knoch the reorganization of the Lippic archive was initiated) and by omitting all supplements, and that the registry was practically without order (D 79 [Alte Findbücher] No. 193 Einleitung). Clausing now handed over a large part of the older files to the archive and tried to place the currents in an order schema that was based on things and storage possibilities. In his systematic structuring, Clausing referred to Pütter's model, which he gives in his Guide to Legal Practice (Pütter, Anleitung zur juristischen Praxis 1. Teil § 479 ff S. 278 ff). The order in 181 compartments was adapted to the external conditions of the registry room. This order layer is noticeable in the present inventory in some files dating back to the 40s of the 18th century, on which the old specialist signatures are also noted. External circumstances - the relocation of the government registration office - and insufficient systematic sharpness made a complete reorganization necessary in 1813. The Registrator Scherf - later Legation Councillor in Frankfurt - suggested in this year to make a new division. In the sense of his time, it was still very important to him that the storage and signature corresponded. In his proposals to Princess Pauline zur Lippe he also mentions that from the registration layer of 1771 a part of the files had already been returned to the archive, but a much larger part lay around unlisted. In addition to the reintroduction of file stitching and the purchase of file covers, Scherf's concern is the new system, which he also succeeds in applying to his part of the government registry. For already half a year later he reports on the first success of his work and presents the first two repertories (D 79 [Alte Findbücher] Nr. 194 und 5). They contained the following groups, Part One: I. Offices and Cities Subject 1-77 II. Authorities, commissions and cashiers Fach 78 - 103 III. Appendix Fach 104 - 108 The 2nd part contained in the subjects 109 - 231 beside the landscape matters mainly general police matters, but also foreign affairs and customs as well as tax matters. In addition to the new system, Scherf had faced the problem of finally separating the registry from the law firm's registry and of respecting the special registries of the feudal registry (now inventory L 6) and military cases (L 77 C ), as well as those of the fire police and road-building cases, as these had been handled by other registrars. Scherfs' goal, but also that of his successor Ulrich, was the introduction of a central registry, which was only partially enforceable. In terms of systematics, Scherf followed the order of his predecessor Clausing. He stressed that in the police administration he had separated the individual items more sharply, but often the storage was more important to him than the system. He had intended, but not achieved, to set up his own foreign policy department. His internal structure of the individual subjects is still recognizable despite all the supplements: the General Acts are followed by the Special Acts. The recording of the government military registry, which remained separate, was begun by Scherf in 1815 and completed in 1825 (D 79 [Alte Findbücher] No. 4). Scherf's successor Ulrich, who supervised the registry for decades, produced the third "Supplement" subvolume of the government registry until 1822, in which he summarized the previously separate registries of the fire police and the road construction and troop catering items (D 79 [Alte Findbücher] Nr. 6). In the case of this conglomerate, it is no longer possible to speak of an overall system in the registry. While part 1 still shows a system, part 2 is already a sequence of groups - completely disjointed a subarea: foreign -, part 3 is now only a supplement of remaining groups. In addition Ulrich made repertories of the printed matter (D 79 [Alte Findbücher] No. 33) as well as of the cracks and maps (cf. L 77 A No. 1542). The following decades in the development of the government registry are characterized by continuation, expansion and thus space shortage and cassation problems. From 1832 onwards, the number of applications from the registry to the government to collect files increased. In most cases, the opinion of the departmental councils is obtained before consent to the cassation is given. First invoice documents, forms and manual files are destroyed, but then more and more individual files. 1842 is the first time again of a delivery to the archive the speech (Abschoßsachen). But occasionally there are also rejections of a cassation: in 1846 the government considers the military reports from 1807-1816 "still of interest" (L 77 A No. 1567). Then, in 1849, larger cassations are made, which one can understand today at least by the title of the file, e.g. in the case of some files a ban on talking about political objects, 1812, one thinks a little differently today. For the first time, however, the expert opinion of the archive on the cassation proposals of the registrar Ulrich is also requested. Falkmann's principles on cassation, which will remain decisive for the following decades, are based on the "practical value" of the files. In Falkmann's view, the files that had to be preserved were those that dealt with general and lasting legal relationships. Those that related to special incidents and personalities could be destroyed (ibid. 1849 June 14). At first it was not the archivist but Oberregierungsrat v. Meien who spoke of the historical value of the files, when for this reason he rejected the destruction of the special reports of the Legationsrat v. Scherf from Frankfurt. Around this time, more and more printed matter was handed over to the library and files were handed over to the Land Cadastral Commission and the lending bank. The registry dispute with the registry of the newly formed Cabinet Ministry proceeded without much difficulty, as the government files initially used in the Ministry were either returned or continued, so that they became a genuine part of the new registry. The loss of importance of the acts of government after 1853 is not as significant as it would be if a central authority were formed. The actual administrative work was carried out at the level of the government. Only in a few areas did the Cabinet Minister have exclusive competence. After 1850, individual cassations became rarer. 1856 the files are handed over to the archive because of Lippstadt and Schaumburg-Lippe. Here Falkmann has now also recognized the presumptive historical interest as decisive for the permanent preservation of the individual files (L 79 I 20 No. 4 [now L 79 No. 40]). The government registry in its older parts became more and more ready for archiving, but it was not until 1894 that the registry produced a list of the historically valuable files. On 06.11.1899 Archivrat Kiewning then took over the reduced government files of the first 279 subjects, as it was said, only the files until 1830, into the princely Haus- und Landesarchiv. The files were "repertorized" by Kiewning in the following two years and in 1901 the government was informed of the completion of the indexing - the completion of two extensive repertories - (these handwritten finding aids of Kiewning are preserved, now D 79 [Old finding aids] No. 1 and 2). On 21.10.1901 the reduced files of the remaining subjects followed, which Kiewning recorded until 1904 (D 79 [Old finding aids] No. 3). The rest of these reduced files of the government registration of 1813 must have reached the archives in 1911/1912 (cf. D 29 J, special annual report 1912) and in the following years they were combined with the older levies in terms of storage and records. They were made available for use in the three typewritten repertory volumes. The treatment of the present stock or better the present registry layer in the archive is characterized by as little change as possible in the pre-archival order. In 1900-1904 Kiewning recorded the files which had been handed over to him in the preserved registry order by leaving the old order schema unchanged, not changing the signatures, changing the file titles only slightly - there were largely no formulations such as "Acta concerning" - and completing the running times. Larger cassations were also no longer carried out. The amount of work, apart from the handwritten work, was therefore very low. The stock contains a problem that Kiewning should already have noticed, which often caused trouble for later users of the stock and still leads to considerations now. This is the problem of the temporal delimitation of the stock both before 1813 and in relation to the new registry layer formed in 1919-1912. The historical development of the registry makes it clear that in 1813 a large number of files from the repertory of 1771 were still in existence (often dating back to 1749, the date of the predecessor mentioned), which had to be taken over for both factual and traditional reasons and were only partially continued. However, a large part of the files from the period 1771-1812 reached the archive, but only a very small part of them was integrated into the Bone archive system and is therefore hardly accessible to this day. It has therefore been considered to remove all files completed before 1813 from the inventory L 77, to incorporate them into the bones "Pertinence" inventories and then to make them more accessible. Apart from the large amount of work involved, however, the fact that the Bone holdings do not require a file management system, as is usually the case in the preserved files, speaks against this puristic separation of the registry layers, which had to lead to the fact that grown file connections had to be dissolved. Conversely, an integration of the files from the period 1771-1812, as far as they have not yet been incorporated by Knoch or his successors, would be conceivable. It would probably be important, however, that also the bones stocks would be newly registered and developed, then the factual questions can be answered more easily, even if the transitions between the registry layers are still fluid. Similarly annoying is the demarcation of the inventory from the younger strata of the government registry. The reorganisation of the registry in 1910/1912 probably set the time around 1878 as the average year, but overlaps in both registry layers are self-evident and unavoidable. A remedy of this grievance can only be achieved by a repertory unification of all strata of the government registry since 1813, a long-term goal that must be kept in mind when redrawing all government holdings (L 77, L 79 and L 80). The new indexing was carried out according to the usual rules for the recording of titles, whereby, in contrast to the time around the turn of the century, numerous changes to the file titles were now necessary. Either the old registry titles did not correspond to the content or they were incomprehensible or used a stronger concretization. There have also been occasional changes in terms of maturities, as transcripts of older transactions have either been newly recorded or marked as such, shortening the often very distant maturities of files. A similar procedure was followed for the clarification of subsequent files, so that some overlaps between the registry layers only proved to be fictitious. It was not possible to increase the number of files opened up, especially for personnel-related collective files. Such a work must be reserved for special directories, just as the old directories "property sales" still have their validity and make a better use of these series possible. With the reclassification, the basic concept of the first two parts of Scherfs' systematics was retained, but the third part, which was not in the central registry in 1813 for organisational reasons only, had to finally be included in the systematics. It would have been desirable to include the military registry as well, but since the own inventory signature exerts a constraint, the interlocking with the military supply files (Section F [VERA classification: 6.]) can only take place once all government files have been listed. The files of the Lehnkammer (L 6), which was also separate in 1813, will hardly ever be included in a complete index, since they do not know the registry layers of 1813/1878/1912. Despite all adversities, an attempt was made to find a system adapted to the holdings - the registry layer - without anticipating the complete index of all government files from 1813-1947, as this will probably have to be based on the structure of the most recent holdings. Detmold, 1976 signed Sagebiel] The inventory L 77 A was indexed in the years 1974-1976 by the Director of the State Archives Dr. Martin D.

During the final check of the VERA finding aid some inconsistencies were corrected (especially spelling mistakes, which apparently led to the assignment of double signatures, occasionally wrong runtimes). Notes, which previously stood between the units of description in the current finding aid text, can now be found as "Remarks" under the heading of the respective classification point. The references to other items ("see also E.4.d") have been adapted to the VERA classification ("5.4.4.").

Arno Schwinger In this continuance is one of the densest traditions of the migrant work worldwide, in particular the Lipischen Ziegler. The International Institute for Social History in Amsterdam (IISG) has been researching this form of labour migration for many years. Now the research results of Prof. Dr. Jan Lucassen and Piet Lourens as well as digiatlized archival records from this stock, especially the brick messenger list, as well as references to the sources of L 77 A, L 79 and the civil status documents relevant for bricklayer research are presented in an internet portal: International Institute for Social History . There also individual Ziegler can be determined in a data base.

The present collection comprises 223 units of indexation with a term of 1933-1945 and was transferred to the former Lippische Landesarchiv in Detmold soon after the Second World War, in November 1945. With the Second Law on the Gleichschaltung of the Länder with the Reich of 7 April 1933, the office of Reich Governor was created in the Länder. In the brief phase of the seizure of power, the Reich governors were subject to the control of the National Socialist-dominated state governments appointed by them, which had quasi-dictatorial powers, and only Hitler. They were his underlords in the countries. Already with the law on the reconstruction of the Reich of 30 January 1934, the Reichsstatthalteramt lost its importance. The power and legal relationships were shifted in favour of the central authorities in Berlin and against the state governments and the imperial governors. With the Reichsstatthaltergesetz of 30 January 1935, the Reichsstatthalter only became instances of the Reichsregierung in the sense of a Reichsmittelbehörde; in addition, their position became increasingly representative. On 16 May 1933, the President of the Reich, Paul von Hindenburg, appointed Dr. Alfred Meyer, head of the Gaue Westfalen-Nord, based in Münster, as governor of the two smallest Reich states, Lippe and Schaumburg-Lippe, at Hitler's suggestion. One week later, on 23 May, in his capacity as Reich Governor, he placed a man of his special trust, Hans-Joachim Riecke, a qualified farmer and Gauinspekteur (Gauinspector), with the antiquated title of Minister of State at the head of the Lippe state government. This one was reporting directly to Meyer. Riecke's honorary deputy as head of the state government was the Detmold NSDAP district leader, the Lagens painter Adolf Wedderwille. Since the power positions and powers of the Reich Governors in the administration increasingly eroded in the years after 1933, without the office being abolished despite its apparent loss of significance, Meyer - like others of his colleagues - strove to unite administrative and government positions in his hands. After Riecke's departure to the Reich Ministry of Food and Agriculture on February 1, 1936, he was appointed head of the Lippe State Government by executive decree. On 17 November 1938, he became Chief President of the Province of Westphalia in Münster. In addition, in November 1941 he was appointed Deputy Minister in the newly created Ministry for the Occupied Eastern Territories under Alfred Rosenberg, and from 29 May 1940 he was entrusted by Hitler with the management of the affairs of a Reich Defence Commissioner. Meyer only occasionally visited Detmold in his capacity as Reich Governor for both Lippe. Münster remained his official seat. Meyer's local husband and inspector of the Detmold government work, based in the small Reich governor's office with only 3-4 employees, which was moved to Berlebeck on the Friedrichshöhe in 1937, was Karl Wolf, a member of the government from 1933 to 1943. Even in his role as head of the Lippische Landesregierung, Meyer rarely came to his new office. With Wedderwille, who after Riecke's transfer became full-time deputy head of the Lippe government and resided in Riecke's former office, he had a reliable governor in the Lipperland in party and state administration. Meyer's main fields of activity and positions of power were in Münster and Berlin and not in the small residential town on the Teutoburg Forest. Thus his faithful paladin Adolf Wedderwille gradually became the most powerful man in all of Lippe, especially during the war with his double role. Since February 1936 the Lippe laws and ordinances were passed under the name: The Reichsstatthalter in Lippe and Schaumburg-Lippe (state government of Lippe) and were signed either by the Reichstatthalter Dr. Meyer himself or in representation Wedderwille. Until April 1945 Lippe was ruled in this form. From the above it becomes clear that there could be, and indeed had to be, certain intermixtures and overlaps in the registry of the Reich Governor's Office. Some written or file documents would have been better kept in the registry of the Minister of State or the NSDAP district leader in terms of content and form. Also some petitioners were certainly not clear whether they should write to Meyer in his capacity as Gauleiter, Reichsstatthalter or head of the state government. Thus the pre-archival order was largely maintained and, above all, the signatory did not clean up the holdings (e.g. in the case of Section 5, Minister of State). For research on the Lippe NS period, the holdings L 80.03 (Minister of State) and L 113 (NSDAP and NS organisations in Lippe) as well as the L 80 holdings in general should therefore also and above all be consulted.

Cabinet-Ministry / State-Ministry / State Presidium 1853 - 1932 A Princely Cabinet was set up by the Sovereign Decree of 12 September 1853 in order to separate the "affairs of state and government suitable for Our personal knowledge and decision-making" from the "management assigned to Our Government College". Referral should be made to the Cabinet "the affairs of Our House and the exterior, parliamentary and military matters, the exercise of the supreme right of supervision over the judiciary and police, such as ecclesiastical and public education, all matters relating to the employment of senior civil servants, recurrence and graces" (Landesverordnungen 11, p. 105). An ordinance of 30.09.1853 did not regulate the execution of decrees signed by the Prince himself under the name "Cabinet Ministry" by the Cabinet Executive Board (Landesverordnungen 11, p. 113). The cabinet ministry then consisted of the cabinet minister (since 1897 minister of state), a cabinet secretary and a registrar along with other office and law firm personnel, later temporarily also a cabinet council and government speakers. The "State Manual" in the Fürstl. Lippic calendar to the year 1914 calls in the "Princely State Ministry", beside which there is a prince. Cabinet in the Court State, the Minister of State, Exc., a Secretary of State and* Council of Accounts, a Registrar of Ministries (Sievert) and a Pedell; in 1914 two assistants and an actuary were present in the office (L 75 II - 1, 21). The position of the Ministry as the "Supreme Administrative Authority" in superordination over the government as the "Supreme Administrative Authority" remained unchanged even after the overthrow of 1918. After an interlude of the People's and Soldiers' Council (its acts here under I - 1 No. 39) in 1919, the ministry was replaced by a three-member state presidium in accordance with the constitution, which exercised the previous powers of the prince and the state ministry (state ordinances 26, p. 913); according to the "State Manual" it existed in Lipp. Calendar for the year 1930 consisting of the 3 members, one of whom was chairman and managing member, and one presidential officer. The office staff not mentioned here consisted in Jan. 1931 of two civil servants of remuneration groups 7 and 8, who had to cope with approx. 15,000 receipts annually (L 75 II - 2 a no. 1; here also via the registry order). By an ordinance of 14 Oct. 1931 to secure the state budget, the state presidium and government were then united to form a state government with effect from 01.04.1932 (state ordinances 31, p. 393). A common set of rules of procedure of the Landespräsidium and the government of the Land Lippe of 28 November 1928 had already been in force since 1 January 1929 (L 75 IV - 1, 25; L 80.04 No. 268; previously a special set of rules of procedure of the Landespräsidium of 5 January 1927: L 75 III - 1 No. 13a). If the order of the administrative reform had stated that the government would be abolished as the supreme administrative authority and that the state presidium would henceforth use the term "state government", the relationship was de facto the other way round. On the basis of the presidential decrees of 1 June, 13 July and 28 Oct. 1932 on the rules of procedure, distribution of business and official regulations of the provincial government (L 75 IV - 1, 23; L 80.04 No. 268), the provincial presidium was incorporated into the government, in whose Dept. I (Internal Affairs) only the general affairs of the Reich and the province - such as the later negotiations for accession - were now dealt with. The content of this ministerial registration thus continues in the governmental registration (L 80.04).

Coats The typewritten index was written off in August/September 2008 by Gunnar Haas from Herford as part of a contract for work in VERA (in new spelling).

Introduction 1st history of ownership The Detmold stock L 51 Foreign ownership of Lippe is divided into several local subgroups. The connection of these places consists in the fact that they contain different lippic rights (possessions, claims, pledges and bailiwicks) outside the closed territory. On the one hand it is a zone not far from the actual dominion area in the north or north-west (Enger, Bünde, Quernheim and Dünner Mark as well as Ulenburg), on the other hand it is also more distant areas such as the Beyenburg an der Wupper office, the sovereign dominion of Vianen south of Utrecht and the Freckenhorst monastery near Münster. In terms of time, however, the files on the individual groups are far apart, as they contain events from the 15th to the end of the 18th century (apart from copies of older documents supposedly dating back to 1031). Beyenburg was part of the duchy of Jülich-Kleve-Berg, but had served as the widow's seat of Countess Maria von Waldeck, who died in 1593. After this, negotiations and the actual takeover as a pledge by Count Simon VI zur Lippe took place, whereupon the administration by his officials (from 1597), which lasted for a decade, and the quite soon redemption by Jülich (1607) took place. The Lippe administration consisted of three persons, the rent master Wilhelm von Pylsum, who was taken over by Jülich and replaced by Hermann Kirchmann in 1602, another bailiff and the forester. The affairs of the office are reflected above all in the correspondence of the rent master and the bailiff with the count to the Lippe. In addition, account books and lists of receipts and expenditures have been preserved, and the two changes of government each led to an inventory of the rights and goods held there. The fact that the dismissed rent master of Pylsum and Count Simon VI also had a dispute over the years with Lippe has also found its expression in the records. In the village of Bünde, the Lippe rights consisted mainly of market duties, which are documented for some years (1551-1560) as well as external interventions against these rights. The office of Enger had been pledged to Bishop Wilhelm von Paderborn by the noblemen of Lippe in 1409. In the 16th century, the counts of zur Lippe repeatedly attempted to trigger the pledge at the Dukes of Jülich, to whom Enger had meanwhile come. Special activities developed in this respect under Count Simon VI in the years since 1576. The recovery did not succeed because there were disagreements about the exact scope of the pledged office. However, due to the establishment of a commission to delimit and record the Lippic rights there, protocols were drawn up containing an inventory of Enger around 1578. The files of the Quernheim monastery refer to the women's abbey there, the bailiwick of which the Counts of Lippe had held since the 13th century. In the 16th century, the abbesses there made frequent use of them, for example to protect their own people against attacks by representatives of the Minden monastery, but also against the town of Lübbecke and the Counts of Diepholz, and also to safeguard their claims for logging and pig fattening and for possessions and disagreements in the convent. In the end, the monastery became dependent on Minden after the departure of some sisters, against which even a joint action of the Counts of Lippe and the monastery of Osnabrück before the Imperial Chamber Court could not do anything. However, in the 18th century, the Counts of Lippe still had the bailiwick of Osnabrück as a lord over them. The Ulenburg collection is particularly extensive. The Lippe feudal sovereignty over this castle was established in 1470 and resulted from a successful feud between Lippe and the city of Herford against the Lords of Quernheim. Already the period before the later direct exercise of Lippe's power is well documented, because apparently the written estate of the last owner Hilmar von Quernheim was taken over. Hilmar, a Danish colonel in the service of Denmark and a drost of various masters, was involved in numerous legal disputes, such as a dispute with his cousin Jasper von Quernheim over Haus Beck, a property that often appears in the Ulenburg files. Hilmar's conflict over the sovereign rights claimed by the Minden monastery, in which his liege lord Simon VI soon supported him to the Lippe, and which continued after Hilmar's death ( 1581), had more consequences. Now the Ulenburg was claimed as a fief fallen home by Simon VI and after a long dispute with Minden it was finally claimed. When Minden handed the Ulenburg over to Lippe at the end of 1593 after an imperial penal mandate, the conflict was not over, as the condition of the castle was not satisfactory for Count Simon VI. In a continuation process (until 1607) numerous witnesses were questioned by an imperial commission and extensive lists of the income of the Ulenburg were drawn up. Although the Ulenburg reached the von Wrede family via Philipp zur Lippe-Alverdissen as early as the beginning of the 17th century, after their bankruptcy Lippe once again briefly took over the dominion there (around 1708 to 1711). Apparently the documents inventoried at that time were kept and then brought to the archive in Brake. Among them are also the files and numerous books of accounts from the end of the 16th century up to the time of von Wrede and her bankruptcy. From the Ulenburg, after their takeover, the older Lippe rights were administered in the Dünner Mark, such as the timber court there, which was also disputed with the Minden monastery. The relevant files can also be found in the Ulenburg collection. In contrast to the other subcases, the Freckenhorst Act only refers to a specific political process outside Lippe, namely the election of a new abbess. After the death of Abbess Margarete zur Lippe, Count Simon VI attempted to have his daughter Elisabeth elected as his successor, which found support in Freckenhorst but was prevented due to the intervention of the Münster Monastery in favour of a Catholic candidate. Thus it is basically not a "foreign possession" of Lippe. The dominions of Vianen and Ameide as well as the Burgraviate of Utrecht passed from the von Brederode family to the Counts of Dohna (1684). Through her heiress Amalie zu Dohna, the wife of Simon Heinrichs zur Lippe, the Dutch exclave came to Lippe in 1686. On September 3, 1725, however, it was sold to the Dutch General States, but the Vianisches Archiv remained, as far as family matters in the broadest sense were concerned, with the Haus Lippe in accordance with the contract. It contains numerous documents of the last members of the House of Brederode (Johann Wolfert, Wolfert and Hedwig) and their heirs Carl Emil and Amalie from the family of Dohna, including correspondence with the extensive relatives to whom financial obligations also existed due to a Fidei compromise regulation for Vianas. For exactly this reason, the later-born members of the house Lippe (Agnaten) saw themselves injured with the sales of Vianen in their there claims and went before the imperial chamber court. In Wetzlar they finally had success, which is why the ruling Counts zur Lippe had to pay compensation and now tried to sue their own responsible persons. Thus, the Lippe protagonists in the sales negotiations, President Christoph von Piderit and Government Councillor Blume, were confronted with accusations which led to a trial of the Lippe tax against the former president. Due to these later legal disputes, the materials of the internal administration of the Vianen dominion were preserved in order to document their legal and financial condition. Therefore these matters can be traced in detail, especially the payments of the rent masters Peter Inghenhouse (1679 still until at least 1698), Elisa Gordon (parallel to it since approx. 1694 to 1721, before already secretary, later mayor), Wolfert Louis van der Waal (interim 1721), Arnold Henrik Feith (1721-1724), Henrik van Dortmond (1725) as well as the special envoy Simon Henrich Blume (1725/26 respectively 1727/30). In addition, the Drost (Drossart) appeared, first for years Jacques de l¿Homme de la Fare, then from 1710 to 1725 Jean Henry Huguetan (married van Odijk, later Count Güldensteen) and other councillors, who together formed the government council of Vianen established in 1681. All those involved in administration cumulated several posts and, after their departure, often still dealt with their previous affairs, making it difficult to delimit them. This kind of administration seems to have been taken over from the time of von Brederode and during the intermezzo under Carl Emil to Dohna quite uninterruptedly under the Lippe rule, as well as personal continuities and connections (Elisa Gordon was related for instance to the family van Dortmond, this again with Jobst B.). Barckhausen). Nathan van Dortmond, who came from Vianen, even managed to climb the rank of Landgographer in Lippe, while councils from Germany were only active in Vianen in the early and late Lippe period, such as Justus Dietrich Neuhaus, Theodor Fuchs and Simon Henrich Blume. 2. inventory history The first six subgroups of the inventory L 51 were arranged by Johann Ludwig Knoch according to factual aspects, arranged and listed with quite detailed information in his find book. This kind of distortion depended very much on his preferences, which is why invoices and the like or sources about the subjects were kept, but hardly noticed. At the beginning of the files formed by Knoch there are often copies of late medieval documents, which mostly became legally relevant for later events, which only emerge in the further course of the often chronologically sorted compilations. Not only is the overall title of Auswärtiger Besitz somewhat imprecise due to the inclusion of the appointment of an abbess in Freckenhorst, which was decided to Lippe's disadvantage. Also the subdivisions were carried out schematically in such a way that connected processes were formally correctly separated into individual proceedings, but which belong to each other objectively (for instance the case Hilmar von Quernheim against Erich Dux, at least Drosten von Hausberge, as well as against his rule, bishop and cathedral chapter of the monastery Minden). In addition, bundles of remains appear, the distribution of which Knoch had still planned but not realized on different subject groups (L 51 No. 46, 160, similar to Vianen No. 265/66, and on mixed matters, No. 267), or also scattered individual pieces, which belong to a common process (affairs of the Colonel Alexander Günther von Wrede, L 51 No. 43, 55, 62). Some of these have no connection whatsoever with Lippe's external possessions, such as extracts from the minutes of the Reichskammergericht (L 51 No. 160) belonging to various trials. The invoices of the Beyenburg office (L 51 No. 14) also contained a bundle with letters on otherwise unrelated extra-lippic property titles (in Sommersell, Kariensiek and Entrup in the Oldenburg velvet office), which Knoch had still provided with his typical marginal notes at the upper margin and sorted chronologically, but without recording them. The situation is very similar with the invoices for a building that Count Simon VI had erected on Prague Castle Hill from 1608 (No. 120). There are apparently two further subgroups of the foreign property in the state of origin, which were not taken into account in Bnoch's find book and in the classification of the holdings. Furthermore, Knoch had laid out some files about the subjects of the Ulenburg, but had provided them with the remark nullius momenti (without meaning) in his find book and had not listed them more closely. In it, however, there are quite interesting matters from the end of the 17th century (L 51 No. 100 and. 101), such as letters of release, estate inventories of simple people, complaints about beer adultery or registers of persons together with their land and cattle. The seventh subgroup with the files on Vianas was apparently added to inventory L 51 only later. A part of the material came to Detmold only in 1726, to which were added the relevant entrances already present in the residence and the material of the later processes. Although Knoch has still inscribed individual files at the beginning and end of the partial stock (L 51 No. 265-267), its indexing is missing, at least in the preserved find book L 51. When the files on the proceedings of the family at Dohna were sought out again after 1772 because of the intervention of the Prussian King Frederick II, Knoch also became active, as a family tree and some remarks by his hand prove (L 51 No. 191). In the seventh subgroup, Vianen, there are on the one hand the entrances relating to the reign. In addition, there are materials which were brought to Detmold in 1726 when the archive at Batestein Castle in Vianen was divided. These files were apparently reassembled for later investigations and processes, but the L 3 stock, which did not contain only documents, was separated. Later orders of the Vianen substock were only carried out at a shallow depth. In principle, the present order seems on the one hand to go back to the structure of the matter for the Wetzlar Imperial Chamber Court process, which was conducted with the Lippe co-heirs, as also shown by corresponding notes (so to L 51 No. 218, No. 223), but on the other hand it concerns the annexes to the report of the later investigative commissions on the role of the Lippe councillors in the sale of the dominion. All in all, it is a rather colourful mixture of the most varied pieces from the administration of the dominion, which have to do not only with the period under the Counts of Lippe, but also with earlier centuries, above all from the reign of the von Brederode family and from the decades after the sale. The use by the Count of Lippe of the money obtained from the sale of vianas is also documented in detail. In addition, the private documents of Countess Amalie zur Lippe, née Dohna, have also been included in the documents about her inheritance, the dominion of Vianen, even if they had nothing to do with it directly. A part of the correspondence about and from Vianas was unfortunately arranged schematically (obviously not by Knoch) by sender. Thus the original factual connections were partly torn apart, which are now scattered over the directory units L 51 No. 268 to 285. The Vianen sub-collection also contained a collection of remnants, including copies of medieval documents, beginning with the foundation of the Abdinghof monastery [1031], and other documents, some of which are completely unrelated or only in connection with the collection, such as the possession of the Count of Geldern in the vicinity of Vianen or refer to ancestors of the Brederode family (such as Knight Arnold von Herlaer). Their inscription speaks for itself, for instance (L 51 No. 267): Quodlibet of collected individual pieces of file, of which the persecution, to which they belong, can perhaps still be found, or (ibid.) old news, of which perhaps still some use can be made. The collected printed matter (L 51 No. 255) and diaries, including the records of the secretary of Hedwig von Brederode for 1679 and 1680, but also an anonymous description of a sea voyage to America (1776), are more related to Vianas. The first evaluation of the inventory was carried out according to the state of the distortion. Since Count Simon VI. zur Lippe played a particularly important role in many of the parts of L 51, August Falkmann often referred to it in his work about this ruler in a way that owes much to the Bone Regests. Besides Falkmann, Otto Preuß also took a closer look at the materials for Ulenburg for the first time, while this pioneering achievement for Beyenburg was performed by Werhan. Peter van Meurs, who was involved in the drawing of the Vianic inventory L 3 in The Hague until 1909, probably also evaluated parts of L 51 VII for his work on the heritage of the House of Brederode. The inventory consists of 286 units in now 85 cartons; the oldest (transcribed) document in it allegedly originates from 1031, the most recent from 1796. The inventory took place from 17 October to 15 December 2004. On the one hand, the aim was to proceed in a more analytical and summarizing manner in order to better emphasize the characteristics of the nudes; on the other hand, the materials not yet considered by Knoch, the later rearrangements and additions, and the almost completely unexplored subcontent of vianas were to be recorded in an equivalent manner or, for lack of other finding aids, even deeper. It should be noted that in particular the documents on Vianas are written not only in German, but also in French, Dutch, Latin and rarely in English, which could not be listed here individually due to the frequent change of languages (often within documents). A unit listed in a previous record could not be described in detail as it appears to have been missing since 1999 (L 51 No 286). Technical defects forced the repeated processing of the indices. An old signature index was not created, since the bones were sometimes assigned signatures inconsistently or its units were divided again by later rearrangements and insertions. However, the exact concordance can be seen in the Bone Findbuch, in which the new signatures were entered. For conservation reasons, most of the posters were taken from the files, some of which belong to related matters, such as a replica of a sham letter from a trial of Hilmar von Quernheim, proclamations of laws of the dominion of Vianen and the neighbouring Dutch territories, but also those concerning other matters, such as a signed order of soldiers of the imperial commander-in-chief Wallenstein from the Thirty Years' War. Some of these posters were used as file covers. The withdrawal notes could not initially be printed for the distortion units. Since the holdings concern Lippe's foreign possessions and claims, materials on these can also be found in other archives, above all those of the neighbouring Reich estates, such as the Duchy of Jülich (HStA Düsseldorf) for Beyenburg, Enger and Bünde. There are also sources on Ulenburg and Haus Beck in other archives. For the trials of Hilmar von Quernheim and Count zur Lippe by the Imperial Chamber of Justice there is a counter tradition mainly in the State Archives of Münster (RKG Q 113-116, ibid. L 629/630), as well as in the formerly inseparable Wetzlar holdings (now the Federal Archives) and in numerous other archives. The files of Haus Beck are deposited in the Stadtarchiv Löhne, while the corresponding materials have reached the Stadtarchiv Bielefeld at Ulenburg. There is also further tradition of the enfeoffment of the Quernheimers with the Ulenburg. For the reign of Vianen and Ameide the materials in Detmold go back to the Middle Ages, since here the older documents of the Lords of Brederode can be found, mostly in L 3 (some also in L 51 No.214, 229, 265; in addition prints or regests of older documents of the House of Brederode, ibid. No. 210 and 243, respectively), a stock which for the later period possesses parallel files to L 51 and also extends into the period after the sale. Of course there is additional delivery in the Netherlands. For the spread of materials from Sommersell and neighbouring places, L 89 A No. 231-233 should also be used. The extensive material collections and party files on the Reichskammergerichtsprozessen über Vianen and the sporadically appearing RKG files in L 51, which do not belong to the actual subject matters of this collection, could be assigned on the basis of the already existing index. Already in 1785 files sent back from Wetzlar to the Reichskammergerichtsprozeß about the sale of Vianen have reached the inventory L 95 I.
