Abbreviation: 1.03.0 Stock profile: Stock description: Rectorate 1900 - 1945 Content: Head of the University, Statutes, Council Duration: 1900 - 1945 Scope: over 800 files, 20 linear metres Cataloguing: database, find book, FINDBUCH.Net Citation method: Universitätsarchiv Rostock, 1.03.0, Signatur Vorwort: The rector is the elected academic head of the University of Rostock. As an advisory and decisive central body, the Council and the Senate support him in the management of the university. The archives of the Rectorate thus contain the most important management decisions and processes at the University of Rostock and the central sources for the documentation of the history of this university. The written records of the university management from the period 1900-1945 document the drastic historical events as well as the social and political changes, which are reflected in the first half of the century also in the Rostock university history. For example, the beginning of women's studies in 1909, the First World War and the university jubilee in 1919, as well as the disputes over a new statute were reflected in the rector's files. The collection also documents conservative traditions and critical tendencies such as the introduction of the Führer Principle, the exclusion of Jewish academics, the university's collaboration with Ernst Heinkel, and the National Socialists' standardization of education. Finally, the sources reflect the devastating effects of the Second World War. The rectorate holdings 1900-1945 are connected to the old rectorate holdings 1419-1900. Presumably after the completion of the order and the drawing up of the older files, an attempt was made here to archive the newer files from 1900 onwards according to a file plan. The signatures consist of a combination of numbers and letters. However, not all items of the newly introduced file plan had been the subject of written records, and for some subjects numerous volumes had been produced under a single signature. As a result, gaps in the course of the signatures had to be accepted in the new order and distortion of the inventory in the 1990s. Wherever possible, the traditional numbering was retained or restored, but in some cases also extended. For the use of the rectorate holdings 1419-1900 and 1900-1945, it must be noted that no systematic inventory delimitation was carried out here. Numerous older files have been included in the newer rectorate holdings and numerous newer files in the older ones. In the case of gaps in the period from about 1830 onwards, it is advisable to research the newer holdings as well, since complete processes on some topics were taken from the old holdings and merged with the newer files. All files on relations with other German universities are, for example, completely preserved in the Rectorate holdings 1900-1945. While the archives of the First World War and the university anniversary can be found in the rectorate's holdings before 1900. Since 2007, it has been possible to use the search function on the Internet.
Period: 1381 - 1945 Scope: 3 Substocks: 110 linear metres = 6,943 units of description Cataloguing: ordered and listed, finding aids (1981, 2008) Citation method: AHR, 1.1.12. or AHR, Gewett Content: The delivery of the Gewett is divided into three parts: 1.1.12.1. Ports and Shipping, 1.1.12.2. Local Administration Warnemünde and 1.1.12.3. Trade and Industry. This division follows the different tasks of the authority, whereby the general files were arranged with the archivischen treatment into the first partial existence. The descriptions of the contents and further literature references can be found in the sub-collections. Overview: The term Gewett is derived from the Middle Low German word "Wedde", which means, among other things, fine and police court. Since the Middle Ages, life in the city was carried out according to the norms set by the Council. Violation of these standards was punishable by the payment of a fine. The protection of the norms and the collection of the fines was the task of the Weddeherren, who belonged to the council and were first mentioned in the sources in 1366. They were responsible for supervising the entire commercial and industrial life in the city as well as the craftsmen and the craft offices. In addition, the Weddeherrens were responsible for the preservation of the port and the fairways, supervised the beach and the flotsam, administered Warnemünde, took care of the cleaning and maintenance of the roads and ensured that the duty of vigilance was observed. The Gewett was also a police authority and acted as a judicial authority for the aforementioned areas. Like other municipal authorities, the Gewett has developed from a medieval council office to an extrajudicial authority since the early modern era. The Gewett essentially retained the competences it had already defined in the Middle Ages as a port, shipping, trade and industry authority. Two council members were responsible as president and assessor. They were assisted by several officials, including the harbour master, the pilot commander and the Vogt from Warnemünde. The bailiff in Warnemünde had to exercise the powers and duties of a police and judicial authority for this district. In the 19th century, with the emergence of monocratic authorities, certain shifts in competence occurred. In 1817, the Police Office was founded, which followed on from the City Guard, which had been under the gun until then. Other functions, such as the medical police, the supervision of pharmacies or the building and trade police, were transferred to the police office in the middle of the century. In the field of shipping, Gewett was responsible for issuing Biel letters in 1831, and in 1838 it actually took over the duties of a seaman's office. After the adoption of the Court Constitution Act by the Reichstag in 1879, the power of the dissolved municipal higher court took over the management of the ship register, and since 1888 it has acted as a ship surveying authority. Even after the introduction of freedom of trade in the course of the unification of the empire, the Gewett remained the first instance for all craft and trade matters. Only the November Revolution of 1918 and the subsequent state upheaval led to serious changes. The bet was settled in 1920. The administration of Warnemünde was transferred to its own local administration. The successor in the field of ports and shipping was the port administration. The police department took over the supervision of trade and commerce.

Overview: The sub-collection "Gewett: Hafen und Schifffahrt" contains the most important sources on Rostock's shipping history. The temporal emphasis of the tradition lies in the 19th century and reaches up to the end of the Second World War. The nautical register from 1585-1605, the ship's tonnage records (Bielbriefe), the ship's register files, the ship's registers, the harbour journals or the sample rolls are worth mentioning. In addition, the general administrative files for the business operation of the bet are classified in this portfolio. Of particular interest are, among other things, the weight calculations. The invoices of the two Weddeherren, which have been available since 1381, prove that the preservation of the harbour, the low, the fairway, the bulwark and the light as well as the supervision of the beach and the flotsam have belonged to their tasks since earliest times. In the course of the formation of the authorities, these competences gave rise to important areas of responsibility for the Gewett. The area of responsibility of the Gewett was regulated by a series of Council regulations. 1756 a beach regulation was issued, 1802 a pilot regulation, 1853 a port regulation. Since 1831 Gewett was responsible for the exhibition of Bielbriefe. A council decree of 1838 made it a de facto seaman's office, controlling the acceptance, wages and layoffs of ship crews. After the German Reich's Seemannsordnung came into force, the Gewett officially became the Seemannsamt in 1873. In 1874 a sovereign decree entrusted him with the tasks of a beach office. In 1879 the Gewett took over the management of the ship registers, in 1888 it became the ship surveying authority. Under the supervision of the Gewett, important areas of the shipping and port industry were located in Rostock and Warnemünde. However, some functions had to be transferred to state authorities since the end of the 19th century. Since their establishment in 1877, the Maritime Offices have negotiated declarations and accidents. The keeping of the shipping registers was transferred to the district court in 1912. After the dissolution of the Gewett in 1920, the municipal port administration took its place. In 1934 the port administration was dissolved as an independent department. The finance department took over the processing of the property, e.g. the letting of the storage places at the harbour, on the beach and in Warnemünde. The tasks of the shipping office, the seaman's office and the ship surveying authority were assigned to the police office. The civil engineering office was responsible for port and waterway construction. Publications: Müller, Walther: Rostock's maritime shipping and maritime trade in the course of time.

Overview: The sub-collection "Gewett: Ortsverwaltung Warnemünde" contains the relevant files of the Vogtei, the administration, the Badeverwaltung and the Bürgerältestenkollegium. The town of Rostock had acquired the fishing village at the mouth of the Warnow on 11 March 1323 from Prince Heinrich II of Mecklenburg in order to secure access to the sea. Since that time the village has been administered by a municipal bailiff. This was subordinated to the Weddeherren or later to the Gewett, which exercised the supervision, court and police functions in Warnemünde. From the end of the 19th century, tourism became a decisive factor in the town's economic life. The village grew into a health resort. The Citizens' Elder Council lost its function in 1911 after six Warnemünde citizens were generally granted a seat in the Rostock Citizens' Representation. In 1920, the betting was settled. The bailiff was replaced by his own local administration. The most extensive group of files in the collection results from the function of the Gewett as a lower court, which until the end of the 19th century dealt with legal disputes as well as guardianship and estate matters of the inhabitants of Warnemünde. The alphabetical order of files was already made in the court registry after the initial letters of the names of the persons and a serial number within the letter.
