Contains among other things: France allegedly intends to make available four colonial divisions

History of the Inventory Designer: Mirbach's Telegrafisches Büro (MTB) was founded at the beginning of the 20th century in the Rhineland as a small news agency by the editor Mirbach. Together with Professor Arthur Jung, he owned the "International Telegraph Agency (ITA)" in Cologne until November 1920. After separating from his cooperation partner Jung, Mirbach initially resumed work in his former correspondence office. The situation in the German Reich at that time played an important role in the further development of the MTB. After the defeat of the Imperial German Empire in World War I, the newly created Saar region, consisting of the southern part of the Rhine Province as well as the Saarpfalz and the western part of the Bavarian Palatinate, was separated from the German Empire by the territorial provisions of the Treaty of Versailles. In 1920 it was placed under French administration with a mandate from the League of Nations. The occupation of the Saar region by French troops was accompanied by the spread of French propaganda (1). This was mainly due to the purchase of some German newspapers, such as the "Südwestdeutsche Abendzeitung" by the French military administration (2). Renamed "Neuer Saar Kurier", the newspaper now appeared bilingual and was supplied with information by French news services. The German Reich government and the Foreign Office felt compelled to counteract France's efforts to separate the Palatinate. Similar efforts of the occupying powers could also be observed in the other ceded territories of Alsace-Lorraine, Rhineland, Eupen-Malmedy, Posen, North Schleswig, in parts of Upper Silesia and in the border regions. In order to counteract the propaganda of the occupying powers, the Reich government agreed to the proposal of the publishing director Kristian Kraus to create an intelligence service that would supply the ceded and occupied as well as the border regions with news from the German Reich. Kraus had been organizing the intelligence service for the Saar region and occupied areas of the Rhineland on behalf of the Reich government since 1919. This intelligence service should be further developed. Mirbach's telegraphic office was considered at that time to be the "management of the Rheinische Korrespondenz"(3). Kraus was interested in taking over the MTB, as he explains in a letter to the press department of the Reich government. After the negotiations between Kraus, Mirbach and the government the MTB was integrated into the "Reichsstelle zur Versorgung der besetzten und abgetretenen deutschen Gebiete mit deutschen Nachrichten". From 1920 to 1929, Kraus was the managing director and literary director of this Reich office, also known as the "Allgemeines Politisches Informationsbüro G.m.b.H." (General Political Information Office G.b.H.), based in Berlin (4). At the same time, the news agency Polwona was founded, also managed by Kraus, which opened several branches in the occupied and ceded German territories (5). These news agencies were outwardly issued as private-sector enterprises, but were financially dependent on the Reich. Daily messages were transmitted by telephone from Berlin to the Polwona branches. These were established in Frankfurt am Main (Frankfurter Depeschenbüro), Mannheim (Oberrheinisches Nachrichtenbüro), Saarbrücken (Saarkorrespondenz), Cologne (Mirbachs Telegraphisches Büro), Königsberg (Norel - Ost Korrespondenz) and Flensburg (Korrespondenzbüro Nordschleswig) (6). From there, the news was forwarded to the provincial press in the area. Thus the citizens in the occupied or ceded territories remained informed about politics, economy and current issues in the German Reich and were also strengthened in their sense of belonging to the German Reich. In return, the branches had the task of sending news from the occupied territories to Berlin, in particular interviews with important representatives of the occupying powers.

The inventory signature there was 61 Mi 1. With the transfer to the Federal Archives, the inventory signature was changed to R 8028. Archive processing In the course of the processing of the inventory, a finding index was created in the Central State Archives of the GDR, on the basis of which the present finding aid book with the database BASYS-S was compiled. The existing classification has been adopted. In the course of processing, series and tape sequences were created. After the inspection of the files some editorial and contentwise revisions at the data records already existing in BASYS -S were made. There were no cassations or additions.

Foreword: Responsible for the entire area of military justice was the "Oberauditor" for Württemberg according to the Military Judicial Code of 1692. In order to take into account the circumstances, which had completely changed in terms of their magnitude alone, King Friedrich appointed in 1807 the General Auditoriat for "civil cases" of the military, with the involvement of a war council with the designation "Oberkriegsgericht". As a result, the military court ap-pellation authority and at the same time the supreme authority for military justice care in Württemberg were created. These functions were transferred on 30 March 1874 to a special department in the War Ministry, the "Justice Department". She was responsible for advising and taking a stand on all legal issues specific to the military. At the same time, it fulfilled the function of the Higher War Court for the Württemberg Army Corps, was the supreme military justice authority in criminal cases, and the supreme supervisory authority for the auditors. It consisted of 4 alternating higher officers, including 1 general as chairman, the general auditor and 2 councillors of the judicial department of the Kriegsministe-rium. 1900, however, in the course of the implementation of the German Military Criminal Court Ordinance of 1898, Württemberg lost its remaining independence in the field of military court organization. De facto, it had already become necessary before, through a whole series of voting procedures with the Reich Military Administration, as well as with Bavaria and Saxony, to achieve adjustments, which were later incorporated into the new Military Criminal Court Code (2). As a result of the reorganization from 1900 onwards, the Justice Department of the (Royal Württemberg) War Ministry was dissolved as a Higher War Court or Court of Appeal. It was also decreed within the framework of the reorganization that all military court investigation files were to be handed over to the (newly appointed) High War Court of the XIIIth (Royal Württemberg) Army Corps, which was assigned to the General Command (3). From 1900 onwards, military jurisdiction was exercised exclusively by the court rulers and the recognizing courts (courts of state, war courts, upper war court and - in the appeal instance - Reich Military Court (4)). The supervision of the exercise of this military jurisdiction remained (apart from the Reich Military Court) with the Ministry of War as the supreme military justice administrative authority. According to the Ministry's organizational plan, between 1900 and 1906 this function was entrusted to "Section J" within the "Department for General Army Affairs". Section J" also had to continue to provide legal advice. In 1906, these divisions were integrated into the newly created Supply and Justice Department ( C ). From 1906 to March 1915 the Department ( C ) was thus responsible for pension, pension and support matters and for the judiciary. The expansion of the business volume caused by the war in turn resulted in the outsourcing of the judiciary. Department C remained the utility department. The tasks of the new "Department J" (legal advisor) consisted mainly in personnel administration, supervision and maintenance of the operation of the various military tribunals, pardons, extradition matters, penal system, construction and operation of military prisons, legal opinions including consideration of foreign rights, occupation law and non-military areas of law. This division also remained within the framework of the liquidation of the Ministry of War, whereby Department J was renamed Legal Department ( R ) in November 1918. Like all the settlement authorities of the Württemberg Ministry of War, it was dissolved at the end of 1920. The records of the military justice sector, which were so severely affected by reorganization, were only incomplete and in an unexpectedly badly organized state and had to be rearranged as they had been for the military tribunals (inventory M 631). The existing file numbers of the file plan were no longer a suitable basis because of the different changes over long distances, so that a complete reorganization was inevitable. The inventory was recorded in the years 2001 and 2002 by the archive employee Gerd Mantel under guidance of the signatory, who also provided the editorial revision and reorganization. The Repertorium M 1/7 contains 808 title records and 28 shelf meters of files.

Introduction Welfare care is defined as planned care for the benefit of the general public and not as a profit-making activity for those in need or at risk. It can extend preventively or remedially to the health, moral or economic well-being. Welfare must be distinguished from welfare care (care is "provided", welfare care is "exercised"), since welfare deals with individual welfare measures. The cornerstones of welfare care are (a) health care, (b) occupational welfare with severely disabled care and (c) youth welfare as well as - if not covered by health care - infant care, maternal and young child protection, school child care, care for weak and sick children and vulnerable care. It also includes (d) housing care and (e) popular education, as well as public, general and special care to control and respond to the needs of individuals when other forms of welfare are not effective. The term "welfare police", which refers to the preventive activity of the police, proves the long-standing link between welfare work and public administration. The decisive change towards modern state welfare care took place through the economic, social and political changes brought about by industrialisation, which made new social security systems necessary for the developing class of free wage workers and their families. Since it began work, the Ministry of the Interior, as its field of work, understood the entire internal state administration in the broadest sense of the term "the changed constitution of the supreme state authorities" of 16 December 1808. Apart from finance, military and justice, these included the general police, the industrial police, the section for cult and public education, general legislation, medical matters and matters relating to mining, coins, salt production and porcelain manufacture, from which the departments A - general police, B - trade and industry, C - cultus and public education and D - postal service (since 3 June 1814 as general post office subordinate to the State Chancellor) emerged. Depending on their specificity, welfare work was subordinated to the various departments. When the Ministry of Culture, Education and Medicine was established with the Cabinet Order of 3 November 1817 and the Ministry of Trade, Commerce and Public Works was created on 17 April 1848 by the Most High Decree, individual welfare measures also changed in their departments. For example, the "Ministry of Commerce" was supervised over occupational and housing care and the "Ministry of Culture" over health care and primary education. The Ministry of the Interior thus retained the youth welfare with the areas that were not subject to health care, as well as public (special) welfare. Youth Welfare includes all measures to strengthen young people (from birth to majority) physically, psychologically and socially. This includes health care as well as guardianship and protection of the foster children. The occupation with healthy young people is understood as youth care. The activities towards the endangered and neglected youth are carried out by the youth welfare, which is also the main object of the tradition recorded here. Until the I. After the Second World War, only guardianship and welfare education were regulated by law. The Reich Law for Youth Welfare of 9 July 1922 created a uniform basis for public youth welfare institutions. In addition, the newly created youth welfare offices were given the function of both the overall supervision of private activities in this field and a link between private organisations and public welfare. Prior to this, the Ministry of People's Welfare was established on 1 November 1919, reassembling the responsibilities that were divided up among the individual ministries in the course of the 19th century. This in turn changed with the dissolution of this authority on December 1, 1932, whose tasks were taken over by the Prussian Ministry of Economics and Labour. However, prior to the establishment of the Ministry of People's Welfare, matters already within the Ministry of the Interior's area of responsibility fell back to the Ministry. Nevertheless, the tradition discovered here was part of the holdings of the I. HA Rep. 191 Ministry of Public Welfare, which comes from donations to the Prussian Secret State Archives of the years 1931 to 1938, which during the Second World War, along with other archival material, was outsourced and, after its recovery, was transferred to the Central State Archives of the German Democratic Republic - Merseburg branch. In the course of a revision in 1977/78, it was decided to dissolve the holdings there. Apart from the tradition of the Prussian State Commissioner for the Regulation of Welfare, the file material was again transferred to the written tradition of those ministerial authorities which had already been entrusted with these tasks before the Ministry of People's Welfare was founded or after its dissolution. A decade after the 1993/94 holdings were returned to the GStA PK, the still unprocessed materials of the Ministry of People's Welfare, which fell under the responsibility of the Ministry of the Interior, were now sorted and recorded. However, in contrast to the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Trade and Commerce and the Ministry of Finance, the documents were not integrated directly into individual groups of files. Rather, the partial stock was left as such. In addition to its focus on youth welfare with the provisions of the Reichsjugendwohlfahrtsgesetz, the Fürsorgeerziehung mit Fürsorgepersonal or the Erziehungsanstalten und -vereinen, it also contains documents on welfare offices, which were not only responsible for youth welfare offices, but also, for example, subsidies for small pensioners. The Ministry experienced an extension of its competence with regard to the newly defined borders of the Prussian state through the Versailles Treaty, in which the affected areas of the individual parts of the country were now also supported. The collection contains archival documents from the period 1806 to 1936 and has an extent of approx. 31 running metres.

Authority history: Almost every administrative branch has its own specific police force. King Frederick, when structuring the state administration according to departments, subordinated to the Ministry of the Interior the police which did not belong to such a certain department, but with two exceptions:1. he transferred the state police to a special police ministry;2. the censorship business was transferred from 1808-1811 to a censorship college which was first under the control of the cabinet ministry, then the police ministry, and on 30 November 1811 with the abolition of censorship ceased its activities for the time being. As a result of the Karlovy Vary decisions, a separate censorship commission existed from 1819, which was only dissolved with the decree of March 1, 1848. there are uncertainties regarding the exact origin of the business part III of the Ministry of the Interior. 1922 the business part III with the departments A (police department) and B (police command office) developed from the initially existing two ministerial departments police administration (treatment of legal questions) and order police (later police command office, as command authority of the state executive police). The business divider of 14 October 1922 states the following responsibilities:A Police department1.General information on the entire police sector2.Measures against anti-state activities3.Damage caused by civil unrest4.Freedom of movement, passports, registration5.Prisons6.Ownership and use of weapons7.Security police, customs police8.Associations9.Press police, press censorship10.Aviation police11.Ranger Corps12.State Local Police and Protection Police13.State Criminal Investigation14.Local Police15.Technical Emergency Assistance16.State and Reich Budget and Accounting ResultsB Police Command CentreI.Preparation of Technical Cooperation of the Whole Police in the Event of Unrest II.Protection Police (if Not in A)1.Affairs of Members of the Protection Police2.Medical and veterinary services3.accommodation and management of equipment, weapons, firearms, horses, vehicles and other equipment4.accommodation of closed organisations and management of the buildings, rooms and places used for this purpose5.implementation of the State budget in so far as it relates to matters B II 1-46.Participation in the state police intelligence service, insofar as the interests of the protective police are affected7. security measures before the intervention of the protective police,technical measures during their interventionWith the second amendment of the above-mentioned division of business in August 1927, division III was given the designation Police (police department), which was no longer divided into A and B. In October 1927, business part III was placed under the jurisdiction of the First Ministerial Director of the Ministry of the Interior, and in connection with the abolition of business part VII, responsibility for Wehrmacht affairs and foreign legion was transferred to the police department. The political police took over the previous tasks of the political police of the Stuttgart Police Headquarters at the same time as the State Criminal Police Office and at the same time released the police president in Stuttgart from his office. It became the general central intelligence collection point for Württemberg, the head of the political police was the general rapporteur in the Ministry of the Interior for measures against anti-state activities, the imposition, implementation and abolition of the state of emergency, defence against espionage, associations and assemblies, press police, freedom of movement, alien police, registration and passports, border traffic and expulsions for security reasons. Also in 1933, the position of commander of the Württemberg protective police was created in the Ministry of the Interior in accordance with the decree of the Police Commissioner for the State of Württemberg. He was directly subordinate to the First Ministerial Director, who was in charge of the personnel officers of the police officers and on-call officers, for training and operations, for air and gas protection, for intelligence, for weapons, ammunition and equipment, including motor vehicles, and for the two police training departments. The commander of the Schutzpolizei was an inspector of the entire uniformed State Police (cf. diagram). On 7 October 1933, the minister approved a new business division of the police department: Business Part III A: Police without business circle of the Württembergische Schutzpolizei and without political policeBusiness Part III B: Commander of the Württembergische SchutzpolizeiBusiness Part III C: Political policeIn the course of the further separation of the Landespolizei from the Schutzpolizei, it became necessary to change Business Parts III A and III B. The change of the business parts III A and III B was necessary in the course of the further separation of the Landespolizei from the Schutzpolizei. Business Part III B now received the designation Reichszwischenbefehlsstelle für die Polizei Stuttgart (RZB. Stuttgart). With the transfer of the Provincial Police to the administration of the Reich on April 1, 1935, Business Section III B was completely eliminated: Business Part III A :Police DepartmentBusiness Part III B :Staff Officer of the Police Department asDecentrant for Police DepartmentBusiness Part III C :Political PoliceBusiness Part III D :Commander of the Gendarmerie as Department for Gendarmerie DepartmentBusiness Part III E :Imperial Defence and Wehrmacht AffairsBy order of the 5th General Assembly of the German Armed Forces, the Federal Armed Forces and the German Armed Forces, the Federal Armed Forces and the German Armed Forces, the Federal Armed Forces and the German Armed Forces, the Federal Armed Forces and the Federal Armed Forces. In June 1941, the Higher SS and Police Leader was assigned to manage and handle police affairs at the Reichsstatthaltern in Württemberg and Baden in Wehrkreis V and at the head of the civil administration in Alsace, SS-Gruppenführer and Lieutenant General of the Kaul Police. His field of activity comprised the business units III A, III B, III C, III D as well as the deployment of the fire police and the fire brigades as well as the participation in affairs of the Reich defence, as far as the police was affected. The previous business unit III E remained as an independent business unit. Adapted to the business distribution plan drawn up by the Reichsführer SS, in 1943 business division VII of the Ministry of the Interior went from business division III A to business division III B to fire-fighting, fire-fighting director of the Land, fire-fighting fund of the Land to regulation and supervision of road traffic business division III C to traffic with explosives. Documents on organisation can be found in fonds E 151/01 (Ministry of the Interior, Chancellery Directorate) Büschel 284, 285 and 288. Reference is also made to the fonds of the Ministry of the Interior in the Main State Archives E 141, E 143, E 146, E 150 and E 151/... for the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, which, due to the changing specialist responsibilities within the departments of the Ministry of the Interior, partly contain processes on the same topics and should therefore be examined in parallel. For the tradition since 1945, the resistance group EA 2 (Ministry of the Interior, Provincial Police Headquarters) is to be consulted.In addition to the holdings E 151/03, the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart was able in 1995 to acquire on microfilm from the Bremen State Archives the Political Situation Reports of the Württemberg State Police Office, the Ministry of the Interior's News Collection Centre from 1922-1934 and the Situation Reports of the Baden State Police Office in Karlsruhe from 1924-1933, stored there as recipient records, which can be found under the inventory signature J 383 No. 716 a-f. Inventory history: Present repertory unites documents from the inventories:E 151 c I: Secret files from the registry IIIb concerning air-raid protection:1954 transferred from the Federal Archives Koblenz to the Main State Archives. the files had been confiscated in April 1945 in the alternative office Garmisch-Partenkirchen of the Reich Ministry of the Interior by American troops. In 1950, the American Document Center Rear in Darmstadt returned the files to the Federal Ministry of the Interior in Bonn, from where they were transferred to the Federal Archives in March 1953. The entire inventory was now transferred to E 151/03.E 151 c II: Ministry of the Interior V, Department III:1958, together with the transfer register via the Ludwigsburg State Archives to the Main State Archives.For the (new) bundle numbers E 151/03 Bü. 44-46 (Ausweisungen) and E 151/03 Bü. 707-709 as well as EA 2/301 Bü. 294-300 (Vereine) there are two special directories from 1966.inventory now complete in E 151/03 (files until 1945) Nachakte (ab 1945) in EA 2/301.E 151 c III: Akten des Geschäftsteils Rv (Reichsverteidigung):1963 vom Bundesarchiv Koblenz übergeben.It concerns a part of those files of the Württemberg Ministry of the Interior which had been transferred to the USA at the end of the war and later reached the Federal Archives as part of an extensive mixed stock from the American file depot in Alexandria.

The two earlier holdings E 151 b II and E 151 b III are now part of E 151/02. From this the files about Wehrmacht affairs were assigned to the present holdings E 151/03. EA 2/301 (now EA 2/301): Ministry of the Interior, State Police Headquarters: Incorporated in the Main State Archives in 1979. Files up to 1945 were assigned to E 151/03, conversely documents from 1945 onwards were taken from E 151/03 and classified according to EA 2/301.EA 2/303: Ministry of the Interior, Landespolizeipräsidium:1990 arrived at the Hauptstaatsarchiv.Previous files up to 1945 were moved to E 151/03.EL 21/3: Regierungspräsidium Nordwürttemberg, Abteilung:1998 from the Staatsarchiv Ludwigsburg to the Hauptstaatsarchiv. Processor's report: Since no file plan is available, the structure of the stock is oriented to the file number, consisting of III, often also P.A. (for the business part of the police department) and an Arabic number (for the file subject), which is not assigned continuously, but mostly. Only occasionally is the responsible department indicated in Latin capital letters (A, B, C, D, E). After the organizational changes of 1933, the abbreviation P.P. for the Political Police is sometimes found. The files of the areas Reichsverteidigung and Wehrmachtangelegenheiten are provided with their own file numbers (Rv or VII and Arabic number due to earlier affiliation to business part VII); they are listed at the end of the inventory. Since the file numbers of these documents could only be used conditionally for a classification and several file layers were available at the same time, a temporal cut around the year 1933 was set here afterwards. The information on the size of the file tufts includes the number of quadrangles, provided that these were assigned throughout. From 1987 to 1989, Alexander Brunotte, Anita Hefele, Kurt Hochstuhl and Petra Schön made the title recordings. Wolfgang Schmierer made the first corrections in 1989. Martin Luchterhandt carried out the determination and removal or division of tufts with pre and post files, an initial classification scheme and the computer-assisted recording of title recordings in 1993. The editorial processing according to the guidelines for manuscript preparation for publications of the Landesarchivdirektion Baden-Württemberg was carried out by Signatories. The indication of the preliminary signatures, which do not appear in the present printed volume at the request of the editor, can be found in the more detailed reproduced archive repertory to the holdings E 151/03.The period of validity of the files extends from 1812 to 1945 with isolated files up to 1955.The holdings E 151/03 now comprise 1196 numbers (the tuft numbers 323, 1125 and 1139 as well as the serial number 800 are not documented) with 47.5 m length.Stuttgart, in September 1998Sabine Schnell

History of tradition: The Ministry of the Interior was founded in 1808. He was in charge of the General Study Commission, the Medical Commission and the State Institution Commission. After the reorganizations of the years 1809 and 1812, the 1st department was responsible for the areas of sovereignty, police and economy, while the 2nd department was responsible for Protestant and Catholic Church affairs, which were dealt with in the respective church sections. After only a brief contact with the Ministry of Justice in 1854-1859, economic powers were transferred to the Ministry of Trade, established in 1860, which was dissolved again in 1881. In order to compensate for the business area thus regained, responsibility for culture, education, science and the arts has now been transferred to the Ministry of Justice. The separation of the Ministry of Labour in 1919 lasted only until 1924, when the war destruction of the Ministry of the Interior in 1945, during which the registry was also destroyed, meant an irreplaceable loss for the tradition from the first half of the 20th century. Processing: The previous card index was digitised as part of a DFG project in 2012. The title recordings were checked, supplemented if necessary and rearranged. The previous tape repertory on the airplane damage of the Second World War (1984) and the thematic inventory of the Central Office of the Agricultural Association (1990) were incorporated into the finding aid.

The supervision of the police in the residences of Stuttgart and Ludwigsburg had been the responsibility of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the Cabinet Ministry since 7 May 1803. By decree of 12 February 1812, a separate police ministry was formed, responsible for police matters in the cities of Stuttgart, Ludwigsburg, Ulm and Cannstatt, as well as for the security police, in particular the action against beggars and vagantes, and the fire and aliens police. In 1816, the Ministry of the Interior was given responsibility for police matters; the Cabinet Ministry remained responsible for the Residence Police as the Ministry of Police. From 1 March 1817 to 23 August 1821 a separate ministry of the Residenzpolizei existed once again. In addition to files on police matters from the police ministry registry, this collection also contains files from the Interior Ministry and the Cabinet Ministry. Content and Evaluation Received are documents relating to personnel matters, the organisation of the Ludwigsburg and Stuttgart police headquarters and the Cannstatt and Ulm police commissions, general police orders and matters relating to the poor police, censorship, forced and workhouses, the field, fire and building police (with building applications in Stuttgart and Ludwigsburg), the admission of trades, the market, medical, military, passport and foreigner police and the security police.

History of tradition: The Department of Justice, created in 1807, was upgraded to the Ministry of Justice in 1808/09, but was abolished in 1819. Its tasks were initially performed by the Ministry of the Interior and the Court of Appeal, but then mainly by the Justice Section set up within the Ministry of State. But as early as 1825 the Ministry of Justice was newly established. In the years 1871-1876 it was also responsible for foreign affairs, 1871-1881 for the Grand Ducal House and 1881-1911 for cult and education, science and art. In 1911 - as in 1871 - the departments of the Grand Duke's House, Justice and Foreign Affairs were merged, but in 1919 the new Baden constitution was to reduce the Ministry of Justice to its actual core areas again. In 1933, the two ministries of justice and cult and education were reunited. In 1934, within the framework of the National Socialist Gleichschaltung, his powers were transferred to the Reich Ministry of Justice. Processing: The previous card index was digitised with the support of the DFG in 2012. The title recordings were checked, supplemented if necessary and rearranged. The old tape repertory for the personnel and examination files (1999) was incorporated into the finding aid. Content: In addition to the files of the Ministry of Justice itself, the collection also contains documents of the Justice Examination Office, the two Protestant and Catholic church sections (from 1843 Oberkirchenräte) located at the Ministry of the Interior as well as the Compensation Commission for the distribution of church property in the Rhine-Palatinate.

I. On the history of the Württ. Ministry of Justice and its registry relations: The manifesto of organisation of 18 March 1806 determined the business circle of the Minister of Justice and defined the structure of the Department of Justice (Regierungsblatt 1806 p. 6 f., bes. §§ 2, 5, 34-53; cf. F. Wintterlin "Geschichte der Behördenorganisation in Württemberg" 1, 5. 280 f., II p. 140 f.; A. Dehlinger "Württembergs Staatswesen in seiner historlichen Entwicklung bis heute" 1, p. 124 f., 388 f.). The Ministry of Justice experienced a reorganization of its business area, which remained almost unchanged for several decades, through the Royal Decree of 8 November 1816 (Government Gazette 1816 p. 347, especially §§ 5 and 9) and the 5th Organizational Edict of 18 November 1817 (Reyscher III, p. 470). On the day after Mauclers was appointed Minister of Justice, 9 March 1818, a Royal Decree was issued on the "state of affairs at the Chancellery of the Minister of Justice" (E 31 Bü. 204). The head of the chancellery remained the head of the Schwab Tribunal. On 29 February 1818, the Secret Registrar of the Second Section of the Privy Council Amandus Heinrich Günzler was charged with the revision and organisation of the Justice Ministerial Registration Office (Regierungsblatt 1816 S. 396; E 7 Bü. 60: II. Dept. 1818; E 31 Bü. 167; cf. E 1-13 Diarium 1818 Diary No. 2673). The fact that Günzler was occupied with this task at least until March 1819 can be inferred from a letter of thanks of 29 March 1818 addressed by him to the king concerning a gratuity for his activity in the Ministry of Justice (E 5 3d. 61). Hit of the order of the ministerial registration carried out by him one seems to have been generally satisfied. Thus the Minister of Justice expressed himself very appreciatively in the 1820 annual report of the Department of Justice for the year 1818: "For more than ten years this ministry lacked its own registrar; and in spite of all the efforts of the few workers, the number of occupations of the offices of this ministry, which had been identified as highly inadequate for a long time, in the earlier period, neither significant business backlogs nor, in particular, order in the registry system could be prevented. Now this order is perfectly established from the very beginning (1806)" (Annual Report 1818 in 3 33 Ed. 126 and E 302 Ed. 969). File plans, repertories or diaries of the Ministry of Justice have not been preserved, with the exception of a diary kept from 1840 (December) to 1364, which refers exclusively to high treason concerns such as the action against the "Bund der Geächteten" and the "Junge Deutschland" (E 301 Bü. 55 Nr. LV). Nevertheless, the registration scheme introduced in 1813 can be reconstructed on the basis of the subjects and signatures as well as the references to the file covers. The registry was divided into two sections: The first section consisted of the Generalia, later also called General Acts. These have been sorted alphabetically by subject. The individual subjects received up to the letter R including Roman identification numbers, subsequently inserted subjects, but also the subjects from letter 3 remained without such numbers. In the Generalia, the main type of documents is those relating to legislation and individual offences. The second department initially had no name. In order to distinguish it from the Generalia, which used blue file covers, the registry material was deposited in red file covers. Around 1850 this department was given the name "A. o. G." "("General organic articles"). In particular, it was assigned the files on personnel matters of the Department of Justice, the supervision of the judicial authorities as well as the treasury and auditing systems. Over time, the two departments have overlapped (e.g. Gen. Budgeting - A. o. G. Budget; Gen. Holiday Bü. 14 Holiday chamber A. o. G. Holiday chamber). Since November 1921, the A. o. G. files were no longer maintained. Classified items that had been removed were marked "closed" on the file covers, all others were transferred to categories of the general files (e.g. A. o. G. Minister ~: "From Nov. 1921 cf. G. Staatsministerium or A. o. G. Gerichtsvollzieher 3: "1922 all items in the files were transferred to G. Gerichtsvollzieher 9 and continued there"). Work on the reorganisation continued until 1923. Since the duration of the files of both departments almost exclusively ends in 1922/23 (exceptions): E 302 Bü. 1: 1922-1936, Bü. 912: 1904-1924, Bü. 1216-1218: 1919-1924, Bü. 1319: 1894-1925), they may have been retired on the occasion of this reorganisation of the registry. In addition to the documents of the two departments just described, the Registry of the Ministry of Justice also kept the files of some abolished authorities and commissions. Although these holdings were preserved as closed registry bodies, they were brought into organic connection with the written records of the Ministry of Justice itself: with the exception of the College of Penitentiaries, which only dissolved in 1921, they were incorporated as special sections of the Generalia Department. In contrast to the Ministry of Justice, most of the diaries and repertories are preserved for these stocks. Altogether, there are six authorities or commissions whose documents were wholly or partially incorporated into the registry of the Ministry of Justice: the Ministerial Commission for the Investigation of the Revolutionary Activities of 1833 in Württemberg, the Mortgage Commission, the Organizational Execution Commission, the Supreme Judicial Review Board, the Commission for the State and Government Gazette, and the College of Prison Officers. The Ministerial Commission established by the Most High Decree of 29 May 1833, to which the President of the Privy Council as well as the Heads of the Departments of Foreign Affairs, Warfare and Justice belonged, was to ensure "coherence, unity and acceleration" of the investigations already initiated into the revolutionary activities discovered in Württemberg in 1833. The Commission existed until 1839. about the files resulting from its activity informs the directory located in inventory E 301 Bü. 18 Unterfaszikel 1 /_ 33. The Mortgage Commission, which had been formed by Royal Resolution of 30 May 1825 ~ 8. 383), was responsible for advising on and implementing the deposit laws and for clearing up the deposits in the municipalities. The board of the commission headed by the Minister of Justice was the director of Schwab. Members were appointed to the Supreme Tribunal Council of Bolley, the Supreme Pupil Council of Steudel and the Reutlingen Chief Official Judge Schickardt. The Commission was empowered to issue instructions to the Higher and Local Courts. It was dissolved by decree of 12 January 1832 (Government Gazette 8.20). The new "Mortgage Commission", which had been set down at the same time, had to deal with the issue of the deposit system for specimens. A first organizing and executive commission entrusted with the implementation of the organizing edicts of 1817 existed from 18 November 1817 to 15 January 1818 (Government Gazette 1817 p. 542 and Government Gazette 1818 p. 21), a second from 27 August 1821 Government Gazette 1821 p. 671) to 15 August 1828 (Government Gazette p. 675). The members of the second commission were the Minister of Justice as head (conductor), the Minister of Finance, the 'head' of the Department of the Interior, as well as the senior tribunal councils of Schwab and von Bolley and the senior government council Waldbauer. A diarium and repertory (E 301 Bü. 140) have been preserved for the period from 27 August 1821 to 10 September 1828. The Commission's registry had classified the documents it had received into two series. In the registry of the Ministry, the files included in the Generalia Department received new signatures, partially disrupting the old order. The Supreme Judicial Review Office, created on 2 November 1807 (Government Gazette 8.537), was headed by the Ministry of Justice and was in charge of reviewing criminal cases. With his dissolution ordered by Royal Decree of 23 September 1817, his portfolio was transferred to the Criminal Senate of the Upper Tribunal (Reyscher Vol. VII 8. 542). Only the minutes for the years 1807 to 1817 of the documents produced during the Oberjustizrevisorium were transferred to the registry of the Ministry of Justice. The Commission for the State and Government Gazette was established with the publication of a State and Government Gazette ordered by King Frederick on 22 January 1807 (Government Gazette p. 1). In addition to the Privy Council Freiherr von Spittler, which acted as President, seven councils of Stuttgart's central authorities were members of it. Hofrat Werthes was employed as editor of the government journal and secretary of the commission; he died on 5 December 1817. After the death of King Frederick, the commission was dissolved, the supreme supervision and leadership of the government journal "united with the attributions of the Department of Justice" (Reyscher Vol. III 5. 478). The relevant files, which had grown up at both the Commission and the Ministry of Justice, received the signature CLXXIV in the Generalia Department of the Ministerial Registry. They were handed over to the State Archives Ludwigsburg as a separate delivery (Delivery II) in 1939 and recorded by Dr. Max Miller from inventory E 303a in 1948. The Prison Commission formed on 21 December 1824 (Regierungsblatt 1825 3. 1) was given the name Prison College in 1832 (Regierungsblatt 1832 5. 243). This college was responsible for the economic and police administration of all higher prisons as well as the establishment and maintenance of the district court prisons in Württemberg. After it had been repealed with effect from December 1, 1921 (Government Gazette 5. 521), his. functions to the Ministry of Justice. The files of the College of Prisons have been incorporated into the Registry of the Ministry of Justice as an annex to the two departments of Generalia and General Organic Objects. TWO. The documentation of the Württ. Ministry of Justice in the Main State Archive Stuttgart: The documents of the Ministry of Justice, initially kept in the State Archive Ludwigsburg and since 1969 in the Main State Archive Stuttgart, cover a period of about 115 years, i.e. it documents the business activity of the Ministry from its foundation in 1806 until the time after the end of the First World War. The files that grew up after that until the administration of justice was "handed over" at the beginning of 1935 did not reach the State Archives, they perished in the Second World War. Apart from this painful documentation gap, however, for more than a century the written material of the Ministry of Justice, which is to be rated very highly as source material for the modern history of Württemberg, has essentially been preserved and is accessible to scientific research. In accordance with the three stages in which the State Archives Administration has taken over the registry of the Ministry, these documents are divided into three archival holdings: E 301 Ministry of Justice 1 (= 1st delivery 1910), E 303a State and Government Gazette (= 2nd delivery 1939) and E 302 Ministry of Justice II (= 3rd delivery 1962). As a result of this gradual transfer of the documents to the archives administration, which was carried out from the point of view of the files dispensable for the Ministry's operations, the original registry order was torn apart. However, as already mentioned, it could be reconstructed on the basis of the notes on the file covers. This reconstruction of the old registry order and the interlocking of the three deliveries is shown in the following table. III. the order and scientific development of the stock E 302 Ministry of Justice II: While the first two deliveries by the Ministry of Justice in 1910 and 1939 were carried out by way of file separation and the recording of these orderly transferred archival records in the State Archives Ludwigsburg caused no difficulties, the situation was fundamentally different with the so-called third delivery. This stock, which had long been considered lost, was found in 1962 during clearing work at the storage facility of the Stuttgart Higher Regional Court (Urbanstr. 18). How he had got there could no longer be determined. With the permission of the Ministry of Justice of Baden-Württemberg, the files were transferred to the Ludwigsburg State Archives on 4 October 1962, from where they were transferred to the Stuttgart State Archives in the spring of 1969 as part of the redistribution of the holdings held in the Stuttgart State Archives and the Ludwigsburg State Archives. In the years 1969 to 1972, under the direction of Dr. Sauer, the ladies and gentlemen Dr. Eitel, Beutter, Fruhtrunk, Pfeifle, Rupp, Dr. Schöntag and Steimle recorded a total of 36 ongoing holdings. Since the tufts of files were completely confused and also a part of the tufts was torn open, whereby the contents were confused, the original order of filing had to be reconstructed on the basis of the notes on the file covers, the subjects and the quadrangles. This succeeded surprisingly completely. In the few cases where no signatures could be established, the tufts concerned were classified according to their category. At the end of the inventory, the files of the Prison College and the personnel files of Prussian members of the judiciary who had been transferred from Hohenzollern and the province of Alsace-Lorraine to the Württemberg Judicial Service after 1918 were placed. It would have been obvious to combine the E 302 holdings with the E 301 and E 303a holdings in accordance with the old 'Registraturordnung' to form a complete Württ. Ministry of Justice collection. Since, however, the stocks E 301 and E 303a have already been quoted very frequently in the scientific literature, a "general revision" was omitted and only carried out on paper (cf. the tabular overview in Section II. of the introduction). However, files which, like the "Repertorium über die Akten der vormaligen Criminal-Revisionsbehörde von 1819" or the Büschel "Gerichtliche Verfolgung von an den revolutionären Bewegungen 1849 Beteiligten durch die Untersuchungskommission Hohenasperg", clearly belonged to inventory E 301 were classified there. Archival records and printed matter that were not provenance of the Ministry of Justice or could not be organically included in the holdings E 301 or E 302 were removed and assigned to other archive holdings or to the library (usually the department of official printed matter) according to their provenance: A larger collection of general rescripts from the years 1770-1822 was included in the relevant rescript collections of the HStA. Files from the Stuttgart Regional Court, the Waiblingen Local Court, the district courts, the Ulm prison and the Schwäbisch Hall prison were handed over to the Ludwigsburg State Archives. Issues 3 and 6 of the Atlas zu den Berichte der Cholera-Kommission für das Deutsche Reich (1877 and 1879) as well as the Kriminalpolizeiblatt (Kriminalpolizeiblatt), volume 1938, were added to the library of the HStA. Stuttgart, February 12, 1973 (Dr. Paul Sauer) Supplement (2006): The find book of the present holdings, which had previously only been typewritten, was entered by Silvia Ebinger in Midosa95 in spring 2005 and converted by the undersigned into the new ScopeArchive indexing software. In the course of the revision of inventory E 301 in the same year, the commissions located at the Ministry of Justice were dissolved and the new inventories E 305/1 - E 305/6 were created. In this context, the mixed inventory E 303a (Ministry of Justice: Staats- und Regierungsblatt), which had been catalogued by Max Miller in 1948 and contained files of the Commission for the Staats- und Regierungsblatt (now: E 305/5) as well as of the Ministry of Justice itself, was also dissolved. The latter documents now form the new category "Staats- und Regierungsblatt" (State and Government Gazette) in the existing holdings of the General Files and were given the signatures E 302 Bü 1373a - 1401. In return, the documents of the Prison Commission previously held in holdings E 302 now form holdings E 305/6. The removed files continue to be listed in the finding aid book; the signatures concerned are marked with curly braces.

When public limited companies and later private limited companies were established, approval of the statutes by the Ministry of Justice was required. This archive contains files on this granting of approval, largely concerning individual public limited companies, established before 1945 and dissolved before 1983. The content of the files can vary from a single advice to a pack of documents, consisting of articles of association, leftovers, advice, royal decrees and correspondence,

History of the Ministry: The Württemberg Ministry of Foreign Affairs, initially also known as the Cabinet Ministry and headed by two ministers, had existed since January 1, 1806. According to the Organization Manifesto of January 18, 1806, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had been the "Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Württemberg" since then. March 1806 it had "all negotiations with foreigners, the maintenance and strict observance of existing treatises, correspondence with foreign ministers, the execution of the King's public correspondence with other regents and governors, the affairs of the royal house, the ceremonial with foreigners, the ceremonial inside, the management of the postal service, matters of the order, raising of rank, the use for the royal subjects abroad, issuing of passports and certification of documents intended for the same". It also supervised the police in the residences of Stuttgart and Ludwigsburg. By decree of 12 February 1812, this area was separated from the Ministry and an independent Ministry of Police with extended powers was set up. 8 November 1816, the Minister of Foreign Affairs was responsible for the organisation of the Privy Council, which was essentially the tasks described in the organisational manifesto. Only the post office was subordinated to the Ministry of the Interior, as far as it did not fall within the area of the House of Thurn und Taxis. The Chancellor of the Order, usually the Minister of Foreign Affairs, was now responsible for the affairs of the Order, while the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and of the Interior shared responsibility for the administration of the affairs of the nobility. A Royal Rescript of 19 July 1819 approved the division of the Ministry's internal service into two sections, a general political section and a legal section. The latter was responsible for political and diplomatic relations, the latter for consular and international legal assistance. The Transport Department, established in 1864 alongside the Political Department, supervised the general directorates of the Württemberg Posts and Telegraphs and the State Railways. The Ministry also included the envoys, consuls and other diplomatic agents, the Haus- und Staatsarchiv, the Lehenrat and the Zensurkommission until its abolition in 1848. After the foundation of the Reich in 1871, the Ministry continued to exist with limited responsibilities. After the President's decree had merged the Chancellery of the Political Department with that of the State Ministry with effect from 1 January 1920, the Foreign Ministry was finally abolished by the Act of 29 April 1920; the remaining tasks fell to the State Ministry. The overall registry: The records of the political department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were arranged according to a classification scheme. Within the individual categories, the files were usually arranged chronologically according to main fascicles, which in turn were arranged and numbered according to subfascicles. The headings could change over time (e.g. "uses"). If the order in the registry of the ministry had already been disturbed, it became completely unclear due to the numerous deliveries between 1872 and 1938 to the Haus- und Staatsarchiv; because these ministerial files, sometimes mixed with documents of subordinate authorities, were distributed among the holdings between E 36 and E 65, depending on the date of delivery. The order begun in the 1960s has the aim of forming "classified inventories" according to the categories used in the Foreign Ministry. The categories that belong together are grouped together in one inventory, whereas the categories "Varia" and "Uses" are dissolved and classified under the corresponding categories. Found condition and formation of the inventory E 40/72: The inventory E40/72 consists of the following categories:1. "War material" from the inventories E 36 Verz. 18, E 46 and E 52, extent approx. 3.3 running m2. "German Affairs 1866-1871" from the inventory E 41 I. Appendix, volume approx. 2.5 m3. "War" (concerning I. World War) from the inventory E 49 Verz. 12, circumference approx. 7.5 m4. "Uses" and "Varia" (concerning military matters) as well as documents without recognizable registry designations from the holdings E 36 Verz. 14 and 58, E 41 Verz. 63 and E 49 Delivery 1938, volume approx. 0.7 linear metres. m Accordingly, the larger part of the holdings consists of documents from the First World War. Obviously the formation of the registry at the ministry could not keep up with the general temporal development, because under the file number "War 1 General" serial files were formed, which comprised 41 bundles (altogether 5.5 m) with 16339 quadrangles when the ministry was abolished. The situation was similar with the file number "Krieg 4 Kriegsziele und Friedensschluss" (war 4 war aims and peace agreement) (a total of 1.5 m), although a distinction was made between general files and the classification by states. It was only gradually, especially towards the end of the war, that the creation of files was begun; documents were also taken from the general files, and it was therefore necessary to dissolve these two large blocks in favour of the principle of files. Moisture and mold damages were determined in places, whereby after consultation higher place with larger damages, above all with threatening further writing loss the documents were copied. Gaps in the general files are also striking; indications suggest that some documents were subsequently added to the legation files and to the "federal files" (B. A. ); individual secret files kept in the "iron cabinet" seem to have been lost. The extensive collection of newspaper clippings, which is now to be found in the fact files and represents a unique documentation, is also worth mentioning. Since the total stock E 40/72 is composed of chronologically arranged rubrics, the classification according to the principle of the fact files appeared necessary here as well; however, overlaps could not be completely avoided. Files from the Conference and Army Ministries were added to the holdings E 272 and E 273, documents from the provenance of the War Ministry were handed over to the Military Archives, and only duplicates and blank sheets were collected. Pagination applied to various clusters of the total stock has become obsolete. Stuttgart, July 1997Wilfried Braunn Preliminary remark for the new edition of the Findbuch 2011: During the incorporation of the oldest delivery of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (former signature E 36) into the new inventory structure in 2007, it turned out that in particular in Verz. 60, which was arranged exclusively according to country categories, there were numerous other files concerning war and military matters. Since the content of these documents did not differ significantly from that of the documents already contained in E 40/72, a general classification in the holdings on general foreign policy (E 40/14 or E 40/18) did not appear to be in the spirit of the new resistance structure drawn up in the 1990s. In order to ensure that the structure of the inventory can also be traced from the user's point of view, these supplements were therefore incorporated into the existing inventory and the finding aid book was reissued due to its extensive growth. Minor content overlaps arise with holdings E 40/54 (police) in relation to rural policing and gendarmerie matters and E 40/59 (deduction, emigration and immigration, travel, citizenship) in relation to Württembergers in foreign military services (e.g. Foreign Legion) and the obligation of Württembergers to conscribe abroad. 1074 tufts or 16.0 linear metres of shelving are now held in the holdings.Stuttgart, March 2011Johannes Renz

Preliminary remark: The stock E 40/33 consists of individual files from the previous stocks E 36 and E 41, the lists 2 and 22 of the previous stock E 49 as well as the majority of the previous stock E 56, which is based on three deliveries of the Ministry of State from the year 1926. The latter was completely dissolved in the course of the indexing work for the new holdings E 40/33, whereby a small part of the documents were classified into the old Württemberg holdings or the Lehenrat (E 60) for reasons of provenance and/or a period prior to 1806. A detailed history of the authorities of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can be found in the preliminary note to fonds E 40/10, to which reference is made at this point. The main focus of the fonds is on requests for information from abroad or other German federal states about noble families wealthy in Württemberg, the transfer of fief files to other (federal) states, relations between individual aristocratic estates and states, but above all noble family, inheritance, property and debt matters.Further important documents on the history of the mediatized nobility in the Kingdom of Württemberg are kept in the following holdings:E 60 LehenratE 63/5 Community Commission for the Negotiations on the Constitutional Relations of the Professional and Knightly LordsE 156 Ministry of the Interior: AdelssachenE 157 Ministry of the Interior, Commission for the Nobility MatriclesThe indexing work on the present holdings was carried out in the years 1996 - 2000 within the framework of the gradual dissolution of the holdings E 36, E 41, E 46 and E 49 by Dr. Kurt Hochstuhl. From January to April 2006, the undersigned incorporated the documents of the existing E 56 collection in connection with a new indexing. In the course of further indexing work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the stock continued to grow. Ursula Reibnitz and Regina Eberhardt took care of the packaging following the distortion. The stock now comprises 881 tufts at 7.2 linear metres of shelving.Stuttgart, March 2011Johannes Renz

Preliminary remark: This collection comprises all documents of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs concerning the Württemberg judicial system as well as legal matters within Württemberg, between Württemberg and other German federal states and between Württemberg and foreign states. In contrast, matters under imperial law were drawn into inventory E 40/16, which is composed of the following parts:International legal matters from E 36 Verz. 60 (Individual states)Rubrik Judicialia (Jud.., Iudic.) from E 41 Verz. 63, E 46 and E 49 Verz. 9Legal matters of the category "Uses" from E 49 Supplement 1938Legal matters of the category "Notarisations" from E 46Legal matters of the category "Police" from E 41 Verz. 63 and E 46 Overlapses with the holdings E 40/16 (federal affairs), E 40/51 (internal politics, constitution and administration) and E 40/54 (police) could not be completely avoided, in the area of military jurisdiction also with holdings E 40/72 (war matters and military affairs). In addition to the classic legal matters, the collection also includes civil status and guardianship matters. In individual cases, police matters (jurisdiction with the Ministry of the Interior!) were also filed in the ministerial registry under the heading "Judicialia", as were judicial matters under the heading "Police". Most of the title recordings were made by Dr. Kurt Hochstuhl at the end of the 1990s. Since the allocation of categories in the old lists was very inconsistent, so that further growth was always to be expected, the inventory was left as a temporary solution for a longer period of time and waited with the completion of the finding aid book until all title entries and their final allocation had been completed. 1443 tufts (15.35 m).Stuttgart, March 2011Johannes Renz

1st History of the Ministry: For the general history of the Württemberg Ministry of Foreign Affairs as well as the structure of the complete registry, please refer to Wilfried Braunn's preface to fonds E 40/72. 2nd Found condition and formation of the inventory E 40/59: The inventory E 40/59 consists of the following categories:1. "Deduction" from inventory E 462. "Deduction negotiations with external courts" from inventory E 41 Verz. 633. "Emigration" from inventories E 41 Verz. 63 and E 464. "Notarizations" from E 49 Verz. 25. "Internal" from E 41 Verz. 63 and E 49 Verz. 8, if thematically belonging to the inventory6. "Police" / "police matters" from E 36 Verz 19 and E 41 Verz. 63, if thematically part of the inventory7. "8 "Travels Sr. Majesty of the King and the Royal Family" from inventory E 41 Verz. 63In addition there are individual documents taken from inventory E 130 b for reasons of provenance as well as some pieces from E 36 Verz. 60.The inventory thus documents not only the particularly pronounced emigration in the 19th century, but also the efforts to abolish deduction fees and after-tax for the transfer of assets between the individual German federal states. Further focal points are the travels of the Württemberg kings and members of the royal family, especially from the time of King Wilhelm I of Württemberg, travels of Württemberg citizens as well as matters of passwords (also exhibition of hiking books for journeymen), local conditions and citizenship. Some delimitation problems arose to continuance E 40/54 (Ministry of the foreign affairs concerning policing). The documents concerning the deportation of criminals and vagantes, the right of residence in the residence city of Stuttgart and investigations into missing persons, if police authorities were specifically involved, were taken there. The problem arose in particular from the fact that numerous homeland law and citizenship matters were originally filed under the heading "police" / "police matters", which from the point of view of today's users would be difficult to comprehend, which is why the present stock is ultimately much larger than initially assumed. Documents on the travels of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and other Württemberg ministers were taken to inventory E 40/31, travels of aristocrats are partly also found in inventory E 40/33. The indexing work was begun at the end of the 1990s by Dr. Kurt Hochstuhl and completed in 2010 by the undersigned. The stock comprises 1026 tufts or 7.5 m. Stuttgart, in March 2011Johannes Renz

Content: With the "Verordnung über die Anmeldung des jüdischen Vermögens" (Ordinance on the Registration of Jewish Property) of 26 April 1938 (Reichsgesetzblatt 1938 I 414 f.), legal transactions with which Jews made dispositions over certain parts of their property became subject to approval. The main licensing authority in Baden was the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Economics. The ¿Ordinance on the Use of Jewish Property¿ of 3 December 1938 (Reichsgesetzblatt 1938 I, pp. 1709-1712) tightened this regulation in such a way that the licensing authority could expressly force the lawful owners to sell certain assets. In addition to ownership of commercial enterprises, real estate and securities, such conditions were also imposed on works of art with a value of over 1000 Reichsmark. The present inventory contains files on those individual cases in which the Baden Ministry of Finance and Economic Affairs approved or instructed the so-called "aryanisation" of assets (predominantly commercial enterprises and real estate). There are also applications from individual citizens for the acquisition of companies or properties whose "Aryanization" was planned. There is also evidence of files on companies that had been victims of boycott measures against Jewish companies in 1933 as well as lists of controlled assets from the period after 1945.Karlsruhe, in February 2016Lutz Bannert Inventory history: The documents of the present inventory came to the General State Archive (access 1967-19) as a delivery from the Karlsruhe Regional Council and initially formed the inventory 505 "Aryanization files". Because these files were mainly created at the Baden Ministry of Finance and Economics, they were re-signed at the end of the 1990s to 237 entries 1967-19. Files with a term beginning after 1945 were created at successor authorities of the Ministry of Finance, i.e. at the President of the State District of Baden, Economics Department, or at the Economics Department of the North Baden Regional Council. They contain negative responses to requests from restitution authorities, courts and Jewish successor organizations for "Aryanization" files. Due to the connection in content with the files of the Ministry of Finance, they were left in their present form. Access to the files was provided by a file that was converted at the end of 2015 and then processed into an online finding aid. Karlsruhe, February 2016Dr. Martin Stingl

Preliminary remark: Karl Ludwig Eugen Schall (born on 25 November 1885), died on 30 January 1980) joined the Grenadier Regiment of Queen Olga (1st Württembergische) No. 119 in 1904 as a junior flag officer, reached the rank of lieutenant general there until World War I, after the outbreak of the war took part as company officer in the battles of the regiment on the West and East Front and was wounded twice. From 1915 Schall worked as a captain and general staff officer, often occupying changing general staff positions at General Command XIII Army Corps, at the 26th Infantry Division, the 14th Infantry Division, General Command V, and at the General Command of the German Armed Forces. Army Corps, 18th Reserve Division, General Command IV Reserve Corps and 10th Reserve Corps. He participated in the fights in Flanders, in the Somme, in the Champagne, in the Ardennes and Argonne, in the Meuse and near Verdun until his demobilisation in 1918. He was mainly concerned with strength and loss reports, interrogation of prisoners, evaluation of aerial photographs, mapping, position building and pioneer questions. From 1933 he again held several changing positions in the General Staff of the V. Army Corps as a Major, in 1939 was Commander of the Stuttgart II Military District as Lieutenant Colonel, from 1940 as Lieutenant Colonel, later as Colonel General Staff Officer in the 554th Army Corps. Infantry Division, with the Army Group A, with the Commander-in-Chief in Serbia, then Chief of the Field Commandantur 747 in Nîmes and was last transferred in 1944 against his own wishes as a war history teacher to the Kriegsakademie. As a pensioner Schall still studied archaeology in Tübingen until his doctorate. Further information on Karl Schall's life can be found in a handwritten curriculum vitae in Bü. 182, in the diaries in Bü. 181 and in the personal file in stock M 430/2, Bü. 1804 with information on his military career until 1919.Parts of the estate of Karl Schall, above all written material from his military service and extensive collections, were offered to the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart by his son Brigadegeneral a.D. Wolfgang Schall in March 1980 and, after an initial inspection at the estate's premises in April 1980, were handed over to the library of the Hauptstaatsarchiv and the archival records in Department IV (Military Archives) have since formed the M 660 estate of Karl Schall. Since the estate of Karl Schall got into complete disarray and no pre-archival classification scheme was recognizable, it was necessary to develop a classification scheme after the indexing, which should do justice to the multi-layered structures and most different documentation forms, particularly since in the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart no uniform classification scheme for estates finds application. The documents from the officers' activities, correspondence and personal papers, which besides their general historical significance have a close personal connection to the deceased, were clearly separated from the multi-layered collections. The structure of the documents from the officer's activity reflects the military career of Schall. These are mostly personal copies of official documents in the form of hectographies, prints and other copies, as well as drafts and private documents. A document, which had been taken from the business transactions of the office, was reintegrated into the relevant holdings of the military unit in the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart. There is a reference in this repertory. The private correspondence was sorted according to correspondent groups and correspondents. Posters and wall attacks, military maps and non-military maps were incorporated into the corresponding collections of the Main State Archives J 151, M 640 and M 650 mainly for conservation reasons. Nevertheless, these pieces have also been incorporated into the present repertory in the form of references, whereby the ordering scheme of the map holdings M 640 for military maps and M 65 0 for non-military maps has been adopted. Maps which have a recognisable connection to documents in Part A have been left there or reunited and have also been incorporated into the collections of the estate as references. For the collection of newspaper clippings, individual newspapers, printed publications and manuscripts from the fields of history, contemporary history, politics, religion, language, literature, science and technology, it seemed necessary to develop as finely structured a classification scheme as possible, since this collection, with approx. 500 numbers, represents the largest part of the collection and was previously only divided into the categories1. Military, 2nd Politics and Contemporary History, 3rd Science and within these categories only chronologically ordered, which made the chronological classification of the frequently undated newspaper clippings possible. It seemed appropriate to make the very multi-layered estate accessible by means of as comprehensive a list of subjects, places and persons as possible. Only a few small map sections from maps that are already available, sketches and notes that seemed to be no longer comprehensible individually and were not in any recognizable connection to other documents, file folders and packaging material were collected. The estate of Karl Schall contains above all informative material about the type of warfare in the First World War. Of particular importance is also the material on non-Württemberg units, most of whose records were destroyed in a bombing raid on Potsdam in April 1945. The drawings on the maps from World War I provide extensive information on the course of the front, combat directions, troop movements, position building and destruction in the front areas and thus complement the M 640 map holdings well. Also noteworthy is the extensive written material on the trials before the military tribunal in Nuremberg against the generals Curt Ritter von Geitner, Hubert Lanz, Karl von Roques and Eugen Wössner, which contains excerpts from the indictments and defence material. In the collections the history of the 20th century up to the 70s is reflected in an astonishingly comprehensive and descriptive way. The collection is not subject to any restrictions of use. In January and February 1984, the M 660 estate of Karl Schall was listed and arranged by Markus Baudisch, a candidate archive inspector, as a rehearsal work in the context of the state examination for the upper archive service and comprises 697 books in 1.55 metres.

Description of the stock: The military commander, France, exercised supreme authority in the parts of France occupied since 1940, with the exception of the departments of Alsace and Lorraine, which were placed under the command of the civil administrations, and the departments of Nord and Pas de Calais, for which the military commander was responsible in Belgium and northern France (see also the annexes listed below). The focus of the military commander's tasks was not so much on military matters (e.g. defence against enemy landing attempts, coastal protection) as on administrative and economic matters. After the German occupation of southern France in 1942, the German General was in charge of military affairs for the Commander-in-Chief West in Vichy. Annexes: 1st structure of the military administration in France (as at 29 July 1940) 2nd structure plan of the administrative staff (as at the end of November 1941) 3rd structure plan of the administrative staff (as at 1 November 1942) 4th structure plan of the military administration in France (as at 1 March 1944) 5th structure plan of the military administration in France (as at 1 March 1944) Use of field commandant offices in occupied territory of France (as of 15 March 1941) 6. Use of high field commandant offices, field commandant offices, German main and connecting staffs, branch offices and square commandant offices (as of 1 August 1944) Content characterization: The extent of the documents lost due to the effects of war is not known exactly. More than half of the documents that have been archived in the Federal Archives come from the Military Commander's administrative staff (activity reports, control of French legislation, administration of justice, police matters, management of the French economy, mining, labour operations, recording of documents of German interest in French libraries and archives). From the documents of the command staff the general activity reports deserve special mention. In addition, there are orders, orders and reports from the military administrative districts and a few fragments of documents of the intelligence staff about the intelligence facilities of the Maginot Line.

History of the Inventor: On 1.6.1940, the military commander Belgium-Northern France was established for Belgium and for the French departments Nord and Pas de Calais. He was under the direct authority of the commander-in-chief of the army and exercised executive authority in the territories under his authority. In July 1944, the staff of the military commander was transformed into that of a Wehrmacht commander. At the same time, a Reich Commissioner for the occupied territories of Belgium and northern France was appointed for the civilian sector. Description: On 1 June 1940, for Belgium and the French departments of Nord and Pas-de-Calais, the military commander Belgium-Northern France was appointed (with the exception of the territories of Eupen, Malmedy and Moresnet, which had been assigned to the Empire by the decree of the Führer). The head of the civil administration of Luxembourg was subordinate to the military commander only from 21 July to August 1940. The military administration covered an area of 30 506 square kilometres with 8.3 million inhabitants in Belgium and 12 355 square kilometres with 3.2 million inhabitants in northern France. In July 1944, the staff of the military commander was transformed into that of a Wehrmacht commander, while at the same time a Reich Commissioner was appointed for the civilian sector for the occupied territories of Belgium and northern France. The main tasks of the military administration were 1. the collection and use of the economic potential of the occupied territory, 2. the procurement of the necessary needs of the military, and 3. the establishment of organs for the maintenance of the public safety and order of the country, in particular in the interest of the Wehrmacht and its connection to the units in Germany, as well as the defense against enemy landing attempts and coastal protection. In order to carry out these tasks with the least possible means, it made sense to set up a pure supervisory administration in the occupied territory, i.e. not to administer the territory itself while maintaining the local administrative organs as far as possible, but only to exercise supervisory control by means of military administration, which, however, was only practicable for as long as Germany did not attempt to intervene in internal Belgian and - as far as the administration was responsible - French conditions in a changing manner. In order to maintain economic life in the interest of its use for the German war economy and to maintain public safety and order in the sense of relieving the German military forces as far as possible, the German military administration therefore had to make concessions to the existing conditions. Characterisation of content: In the existing written material, the reports of the subordinate supreme field commandantures document processes of daily life in occupied Belgium. The detailed weekly, monthly and annual reports, which are preserved in the extensive files of the military administration, provide a comprehensive picture of the economic situation from June 1940 to August 1944, as well as documents on the treatment of King Leopold III, the repatriation of Belgian art treasures from southern France, the fight against the resistance movement, and the establishment, organisation and operation of the Walloon and Flemish security services.

Description: The Prussian military members were grouped together in military congregations, the pastoral care was carried out by a military clergy independent of the respective civil church. The military church order of 1832 established a Protestant field provost, to whom the military priests were subordinate in the army corps. The division, garrison and institution priests were in turn subordinate to them. Until 1839 the Prussian military community was looked after interdenominationally by Protestant military chaplains. Then by cabinet order the employment of Catholic military clergymen was ordered and in 1849 finally an army bishop was entrusted with the management of the Catholic military church system. 1868 followed the establishment of the office of a Catholic field provost. Characterisation of content: In addition to the written records of the Catholic military pastoral care, the present collection contains several copies of files in the Rottenburg Episcopal Ordinariat on the appointment and deployment of field chaplains as well as a volume of copies from the archives of the Protestant Church in Germany on Protestant military pastoral care of German and foreign prisoners of war. State of development: Findbuch Vorarchivische Ordnung: Almost exclusively the records of the Catholic military pastoral care are handed down, which were taken over in 1974 on the occasion of the handover of the former Catholic Garrison Church Berlin to the Greek Orthodox community from the Secret State Archives of Prussian Cultural Heritage in Berlin and handed over to the Federal Archives in 1978.

1 History of the authorities 1.1 Military Provinces 1813-1815 On 15 March 1813, for strategic military reasons, the entire Prussian territory between the Elbe and the Russian border was divided into four military provinces in order to wage war against France. At the same time, the Upper Government Commission founded in Berlin on 20 January 1813 (cf.: GStA PK, I. HA, Rep. 102 Oberregierungskommission zu Berlin) and the General Commission for Accommodation, Meals and Marschesen formed on 24 April 1812 (cf.: GStA PK, I. HA, Rep. 85 General Commission for Accommodation, Meals and Marschesen) were dissolved. Initially, four military provinces were formed for the following areas: 1) for the country between the Elbe and Oder rivers in Berlin, 2) for the country between the Oder and Vistula rivers in Stargard, 3) for the country between the Vistula and the Russian border in Königsberg and 4) for Silesia in Breslau. After the further advance of the Prussian and Allied troops, the formation of the military government for the Prussian provinces took place on the left bank of the Elbe. This was soon divided into the two military provinces for the state between the Elbe and Weser in Halberstadt and for the state between Weser and Rhine in Münster. The military governorates were classified according to purely military or geographical criteria, irrespective of the historical administrative divisions that existed to date. The individual military governorates were directly subordinate to the king or the state chancellor. The ministries lost their competence for all matters concerning warfare for the duration of the military governorates. All authorities in the district were subordinate to military or civil governors in military matters. Only in operational matters of the army was the commanding generals in command. For each military government, one military governor and one civil governor were appointed as equal leaders. In the event of disagreement, the King alone had the power of decision. In the event of imminent danger, however, the military governor had the decisive vote. Part of the tasks of the military government, especially with regard to the provision of food for Russian troops, was transferred to the Major General Friedrich Karl Heinrich Graf von Wylich and Lottum as General Director for the provision of food for Russian troops in Germany on 11 March 1813 (cf.: GStA PK, I. HA, Rep. 128 Registratur[by Friedrich Karl Heinrich Graf von Wylich and] Lottum über Armeeverpflegungsangelegenheiten in den Kriegen 1813 - 1815). After the First Peace of Paris, the four Eastern Elbe military provinces were dissolved by the cabinet of 3 June 1814. The two Westelbian military provinces remained in place for the time being. 1.2 Military and civil government for the provinces between the Elbe and Weser The "Military government for the Prussian provinces on the left bank of the Elbe" was formed by the Kabinettsordre of 9 April 1813 and Wilhelm Anton von Klewiz was appointed civil governor. Major General Philipp of Ivernois was appointed military governor, but he died on June 1, 1813. The new military governor was Major General Friedrich Wilhelm Ludwig von Krusemark. Since most of the West Elbian areas were still occupied by French troops, it took some time before the military government was able to take up its activities in full. The seat of the military government was initially still in Berlin and was moved provisionally to Halle/Saale only in October 1813. As a result of the advance of the Prussian and Allied troops, the area to be administered by the military government had assumed too great an extension. For this reason, the Cabinet of 19 November 1813 divided it into two independent military provinces for the provinces between the Elbe and Weser and between the Weser and Rhine. The former civilian governor of Klewiz, who held this office until the dissolution of the civilian government, was appointed civil governor of the military government for the provinces between the Elbe and Weser rivers. The new military governor was Major General Ludwig Wilhelm August von Ebra (1759-1818). The military government now comprised the following former Prussian territories: the Altmark, the Duchy of Magdeburg, the Principality of Halberstadt, the County of Mansfeld, the County of Hohenstein, the Principality of Eichsfeld and the Principality of Erfurt. The seat of the government administration was moved to Halberstadt in December 1813. Although a division of responsibilities between the military governor and the civilian governor would have been legally permissible, all business of the military government was handled jointly and amicably by both governors. In the event of absence, there was mutual representation. The office and the registry were managed jointly. Even after the peace agreement of May 30, 1815, the military government remained in place and was not dissolved until July 12, 1815. The military tasks were transferred to the General Command for the provinces between the Elbe and Weser rivers. The remaining business was provisionally continued by the former civil governor of Klewiz until the appointment of the chief president and the district presidents on 1 April 1816. The main task of the military government was to reorganize the administration and ensure the efficiency of the Prussian army in the provincial district. These included above all the formation of troops, feeding the Prussian and Allied troops and supplying the military hospitals. For this purpose, the military government had to raise the necessary funds through tax collections and carry out requisitions. The higher and security police were also directly exercised by the military government. However, the mining and metallurgy sector was directly subordinated to the Minister of Finance and the postal sector to the General Postmaster. In order to carry out individual tasks of the military government, several subordinate offices and authorities were formed, which were also based at the civil governor's place of work in Halberstadt. This included the Finance Commission, which exercised control over the management of direct and indirect taxes, domains and forests. This commission was dissolved on 24 February 1814. Its tasks were largely transferred to the Provincial Commission, which was also based in Halberstadt. This commission consisted of six councils and served to advise the civil governor, on whose decisions it was also dependent. It was therefore not an independent intermediate instance between the civil governor and the subordinate authorities. On behalf of the Military Government, the Higher Regional Court Council Dalkowski conducted investigations against a number of persons suspected of espionage and spying for the French or Westphalian High Police or army. The basis for these investigations was the Royal Order of 17 March 1813 for punishment of crimes against the security of the armies (cf.: Collection of Laws for the Royal Prussian States, 1813, p.34f.) and the Decree of 15 January 1814 for investigation and punishment of the illicit traffic with the enemy (cf.: Collection of Laws for the Royal Prussian States, 1814, p. 5-7.). However, under Article 16 of the First Paris Peace of 30 May 1814, these investigations had to be stopped. In November 1813, the Provincial War Commission was formed to carry out the requisitions and supply the Prussian and Allied troops. This office, headed by the provincial war commissioner Rhades and, from February 1814, his successor Lehmann, existed until 1816 and a surgical staff was formed for the organization of the provincial hospital system. This staff existed until November 1815 and was responsible, among other things, for the purchase of medicines and hospital utensils, the recruitment and remuneration of medical personnel and the supervision of the individual provincial hospitals. At the end of 1813, the territory of the military government was divided into three departments, each headed by a national director. These national directorates were intermediate instances between the civil governor and the district administrators or the subordinate authorities. The three departments can be regarded as predecessors of the administrative districts that were later formed. The first department roughly corresponded to the former Westphalian Elbe department and consisted of the districts Salzwedel, Stendal and Neuhaldensleben. Due to the occupation by French troops, the city of Magdeburg was no longer under direct administration until May 1814. The second department, which roughly corresponded to the Westphalian Saale Department, consisted of the Saalekreis and the districts of Wansleben, Calbe/Saale, Mansfeld, Eisleben, Halberstadt and Osterwieck. The 3rd department consisted of the Prussian parts of the former Westphalian Harz Department and was divided into the districts of Heiligenstadt, Duderstadt and Hohenstein. In addition, there was the area of Erfurt and Blankenhain, which formed its own circle and was administered by its own vice director (as permanent representative of the country director). The national directorates in the 1st and 2nd departments were dissolved in February 1814 and the competencies were transferred to the civil governor or the responsible councillors. However, due to the long distance until the dissolution of the civil government on 31 March 1816, the Regional Directorate of the 3rd Department remained in place. When the administrative districts of the province of Saxony were later formed, the previous territorial structure of the three departments was largely retained. The administrative district Magdeburg corresponded approximately to the 1st department, the administrative district Merseburg to the 2nd department and the administrative district Erfurt to the 3rd department. 1.3 Senior Officials Military Governors: April 1813 - June 1813: Major General Philipp von Ivernois (1754-1813) (Cf.: Priesdorff, Kurt von: Soldatisches Führertum, Hamburg 1937-1942, Vol. 3 (Part 5), p. 275f.)

The files, which concerned the areas of the later administrative districts of Merseburg and Erfurt, were first transferred to the responsible government archives in Merseburg and Erfurt and were later added to the holdings of the Magdeburg State Main Archives. By order of the Director General of the Prussian State Archives of May 1, 1883, the files of the military government (with the exception of the military government for the land between the Elbe and Oder or Oder and Vistula) were either transferred from the Secret State Archives to the provincial archives concerned or left in their original state. In the state capital archive of Magdeburg the archival material of the military government was divided into the following holdings (cf.: Gringmuth-Dallmer, Hanns: Gesamtübersicht über diebestände des Landeshauptarchivs Magdeburg, Vol. 3,1, Halle/Saale 1961): - Rep. C 1 Preußisches Militärgouvernement für die Provinzen zwischen Elbe und Weser zu Halberstadt - Rep. C 1 a Prussian military government for the provinces between Elbe and Weser to Halberstadt - Rep. C 1 b Prussian military government for the provinces between Elbe and Weser to Halberstadt concerning administrative district Erfurt - Rep. C 1 c Prussian military government for the provinces between Elbe and Weser to Halberstadt - Civil administration - Rep. C 2 Prussian Civil Government for the provinces between Elbe and Weser to Halberstadt - Rep. C 2 a Prussian Civil Government for the provinces between Elbe and Weser to Halberstadt concerning the later administrative district Magdeburg - Rep. C 2 b Prussian Civil Government for the provinces between Elbe and Weser to Halberstadt concerning the later administrative district Erfurt - Rep. C 2 c Prussian Civil Government for the provinces between Elbe and Weser at Halberstadt concerning the later administrative district Merseburg (Saalkreis and Mansfeld) - Rep. C 3 Commission of the Higher Regional Court Council Dalkowski for the investigation of political offences - Rep. C 7 Finance Commission at Halberstadt - Rep. C 8 Government War Commission (War Commissioner Lehmann) - Rep. C 11 Surgical Staff. On 26 and 27 April 1972 the above holdings were transferred by the Landeshauptarchiv Magdeburg to the Deutsches Zentralarchiv, Dienststelle Merseburg (see: GStA PK, I. HA, Rep. 178 E Geheimes Staatsarchiv PK, Dienststelle Merseburg, Nr. 331 Aktenzugänge, Bd. 1). However, not all stocks from the transitional period were transferred. Thus, for example, the holdings of the three state directorates remained in the Magdeburg State Main Archives. On 21 October 1986, 0.1 running metres of files were subsequently taken over and assigned to the holdings (cf.: GStA PK, I. HA, Rep. 178 E Geheimes Staatsarchiv PK, Dienststelle Merseburg, Nr. 1037 Bestandsakte I. HA Rep. 91 C). The holdings taken over from the Magdeburg State Archives were combined into one holdings and initially recorded in a find file by employees of the German Central Archives, Merseburg Office. In the process, the contemporary titles were obviously adopted without any discernible new titles being formed. In addition, the portfolio was rearranged according to thematic criteria. It has not yet been possible to determine the date of the order, the original distortion and a later revision of the file titles. This revision, which was still carried out on the index cards, led to a partial correction and standardisation of the file titles, which however remained incomplete and inconsistent. Following the retroconversion of the find file by typists of the Secret State Archives PK, the holdings were edited in 2008 and 2009 by archive employee Guido Behnke. The classification has been revised. In addition, the existing file titles were checked and, if necessary, standardized or corrected. In some cases, individual files had to be redrawn. The existing place names were adapted as far as possible to the current spelling. 3. note on use The holdings were arranged according to subject matter. However, the files of classification group 02.01.03 are sorted by the names of the individual towns. These are files relating to the accounting, the debts, the public buildings, the leasing of land and the local taxes of the respective municipalities. Also the files of the classification group 03.03.01.03, which concern the church, parish and school affairs, are arranged according to place names. The files relating to staff matters (e.g. employment, remuneration, dismissal, misconduct) of officials should be sought in the various thematic classification groups. For example, the files on civil servants employed directly by the Military Government are in classification group 01.02, municipal civil servants in classification group 02.01.04 and judicial officers in classification group 02.03.01.09. 4. References to other holdings and bibliographical references 4.1 Holdings in the Secret State Archives PK A larger number of files relating to the Military Government between Weser and Elbe are in the holdings: - GStA PK, I.
