History of the Württemberg legation in Munich: From time to time since 1742, Württemberg has maintained an envoy at the Bavarian court in Munich. The legation did not become a permanent institution until 1804, shortly after Württemberg was elevated to electorate. In contrast to most other Württemberg legations, the legation in Munich continued uninterrupted until 1933. Since 1893, the Württemberg envoy in Munich had also been accredited for Karlsruhe and Darmstadt.The Württemberg representatives in Bavaria were in detail:Ferdinand Reinhard von Wallbrunn1742Christoph Konrad Abel1780 - 1790Albrecht Jakob von Bühler1792Ulrich Leberecht von Mandelslohe1792Karl Heinrich Ernst Freiherr von Bothmer1804 - 1807Friedrich August Freiherr Gremp von Freudenstein1807, interimistChristian Friedrich Kölle1807 - 1808Heinrich Karl Friedrich Levin Count of Wintzingerode1808 - 1810Christoph Ermann Baron von Steube zu Schadnitz1810 - 1815Friedrich August Baron Gremp von Freudenstein1815 - 1816Peter Count of Gallatin1816 - 1817Friedrich August Freiherr Gremp von Freudenstein1817 - 1821Moritz Joseph Philipp Freiherr von Schmitz-Grollenburg1821 - 1844Gottfried Jonathan von Hartmann1825, InterimFerdinand Christoph Graf von Degenfeld-Schomburg1844 - 1868Oskar Freiherr von Soden1868 - 1906Friedrich Rudolf Karl Moser von Filseck1906 - 1909Karl Moser von Filseck1906 - 1918The documents of the Württemberg envoys in Munich from the time before 1806 are kept in the holdings A 74 h. The counter tradition of the Württemberg Ministry of Foreign Affairs concerning the Württemberg legation in Munich is in inventory E 50/05. Destruction of files 1867: In March 1867, the Württemberg envoy in Munich, von Degenfeld, was permitted at his request to sell certain files of the legation, for which there was not enough space in the registry, for the purpose of stamping them. He then, on the advice of the Chief Mint Master of Haidt, had them burned in his smelting furnace in the presence of a reliable employee of the legation. a special list of the banished files was not drawn up, as Degenfeld described them in the meticulously kept list of files of the legation. Among the documents destroyed were: Political Reports1844 - 1853 Federal Affairs1821 - 1856, 1854 - 1866 Railway, Post and Telegraph1836 - 1856 Customs Union1831 - 1861 Coinage and Paper Money1837 - 1853 Gesandtschaftliches Personal1804 - 1856 Württembergische und bayerische königliche Höfe1850 - 1863 Switzerland1834 - 1853 (political reports1844 - 1853 Federal Affairs1821 - 1856, 1854 - 1866 Railway, Post and Telegraph1836 - 1856 customs union1831 - 1861 coins and paper money1837 - 1853 Gesandtschaftliches Personal1804 - 1856Württembergische und bayerische königliche Höfe1850 - 1863 Switzerland1834 - 1853 (political reports1844 - 1853).), 1833 - 1851 (Handel)Privatangelegenheiten1832 - 1860 Further history of the collection, report by the editor: Since about 1870, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has repeatedly submitted documents that were no longer needed to the Württemberg House and State Archives. After the end of the Monarchiv and the dissolution of this ministry in 1920, the remaining legations and consulates of Württemberg were subordinated to the State Ministry. In the summer of 1950, Dr. Max Straub separated the ministerial and legation files for the Munich legation and rearranged the provenance holdings of the legation. The collection was packaged in 1966, and Max Straub's comparatively legible handwritten repertory is still in use. However, in connection with the development project on the holdings of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the intended complete creation of online finding aids of this series, the present holdings were retro-converted, which was carried out by Silvia Ebinger in 2005. A slight revision of the title recordings was made by Dr. Albrecht Ernst.Stuttgart, in April 2007Johannes Renz

Biography: Willy Hugo Hellpach (pseudonym Ernst Gystrow) was born on 26 February 1877 in Oels (Silesia) as son of the district court calculator Hugo Hellpach. After studying medicine, psychology and philosophy at the Universities of Greifswald and Leipzig, he received his doctorate (Dr. phil.) from Wilhelm Wundt at the University of Leipzig with his dissertation "Colour perception in indirect vision" and at the University of Heidelberg with his doctorate (Dr. med.) from Franz Nissel on the subject of "Analytical investigations on the psychology of hysteria". He received his psychiatric and neurological training at the Universities of Heidelberg and Berlin. Since 1911 he was professor for "Psychology on medical-scientific basis" at the Technical University Karlsruhe, after the end of World War I professor for "General and applied social and people psychology" in Heidelberg. His political career began in 1922 when he was appointed Minister of Culture and Education in Baden. From 1923 to 1925 he was President of the State of Baden, a member of the German Reich Council, and from 1928 to 1930 Member of the Reichstag of the German Democratic Party. In 1942 Hellpach was appointed Director of the Psychological Institute at the University of Heidelberg. Hellpach died on July 6, 1955 in Heidelberg. Holdings: The estate contains personal papers as well as documents from his professional and scientific activities. He was partly ordered by Willy Hellpach himself, partly by his pupils Wilhelm Witte and Monika Oels. In 1972 Wilhelm Witte sold the estate to the General State Archives, in 1975 Hellpach's cousin Hilda Otto supplemented the material mainly with correspondence from the publishing house, photos, medals and the like. Marie Salaba undertook the indexing in 1974, and when she indexed the later accesses in 1995, she maintained the first part'siederung.The following online finding aid was generated in 2006 as a shortened version from the aforementioned finding aids for the Kalliope portal, the central index of autographs in libraries, archives and museums. Categories that are not archive-specific, such as "life document", "letter" or "collection", are predefined by the portal.

Contains among other things: Brigade and group orders; special orders; accommodations; reports; tactical instructions and findings; knowledge of the enemy; war divisions Darin: sketches; war divisions of the British army; overview of the English and colonial battalions (excluding India); knowledge of the deployment of snipers in the British army

Formation history: After the army had undergone an enormous enlargement as a result of the constitution of the German Reich, an army inspection was formed for three to four army corps together. In 1877 the V. Army Inspection was set up in Karlsruhe. Grand Duke Frederick I of Baden was appointed General Inspector in his capacity as Colonel General of the Cavalry and was responsible for the XIV, XV and XVI Army Corps. By 1913, the number of inspections had increased from four to eight. The general inspectors were intended to lead the armies to be deployed in the event of war. In peacetime, they only had the right to inspect the army corps subordinated to them. Since they lacked the command over the assigned commanding generals of the army corps, they also had no military staffs. When the war broke out in 1914, the V Army Inspectorate in Karlsruhe was headed by Grand Duke Friedrich II of Baden as Colonel General with the rank of Field Marshal General. The V Army Inspectorate was assigned the VIII, XIV and XV Army Corps at the outbreak of war. Inventory history: After the end of the war, the files remained in the area of the XIV Army Corps. From January 1920, the establishment of an archive of the XIV Army Corps was begun, in which the archives of the settlement agencies were brought together. In autumn 1920 the corps archive moved to the infantry barracks in Heilbronn. From January 1921, the Corps Archives entered the portfolio of the Reich Ministry of the Interior under the name Aktenverwaltung XIV, before being incorporated into the Reichsarchiv in Potsdam as the Heilbronn archive branch on April 1, 1921. As a result of the merger of the Heilbronn and Stuttgart branches of the Reich Archives, the holdings were transferred to Stuttgart in 1924. The Württembergische Archivdirektion, which took over the administration of the holdings of the Army Archives Stuttgart after the end of the Second World War, handed over the XIV Army Corps to the General State Archive Karlsruhe in the years 1947 to 1949. A very detailed history of the holdings is contained in the foreword of the Deputy General Command of the XIV Army Corps (holdings 456 F 8). 22 fascicles with a circumference of 0.30 linear metres are included in the holdings.

The history of the Franck company ranges from the foundation of the chicory factory in Vaihingen in 1828 to the transition to Nestlé Deutschland AG, Frankfurt in 1987. A description of the company history was omitted in favour of a chronicle in tabular form. The files recorded in this finding aid book originate from a file delivery from 1978, which took place on the occasion of the firmation with Nestlé Gruppe Deutschland GmbH, Frankfurt (since 1987 Nestlé Gruppe Deutschland AG) and the transfer of the management of Unifranck Lebensmittelwerke GmbH to Munich. The printed company chronicles were taken from the previously unrecorded library records in the Ludwigsburg State Archives, which were also handed over in 1978, to complete the unprinted company chronicles of inventory PL 5. The structure of the records was based on the organisational plan of the Heinrich Franck Sons Central Administration of 1919 (PL 5 Bü. 145) and the existing old signatures. The registry order to be derived from the organizational plan and the old signatures, which was arranged according to the type of products manufactured, the central connection to Ludwigsburg or Berlin and the location of the branch, was reduced to the location and departmental responsibility according to the organizational plan of 1919 due to the incomplete nature of the archive records (some registry signatures were missing completely) and easier access. The products manufactured were not taken into account as distinguishing features. Little can be said about the history of the company archive. The central offices in Ludwigsburg and Berlin had the main significance. In 1935 the trademarks were transferred "for security reasons" from the registries in Ludwigsburg and Linz to Berlin (StAL PL 5 Bü. 145). From 1943 to 1947, a large-scale transfer of files and advertising material to Ludwigsburg took place (StAL PL 5 Bü. 1). To what extent and according to which criteria cassations were carried out until the files were delivered to the Ludwigsburg State Archives in 1978/1981 must remain open. The fact that they took place can be concluded from the incomplete registry signatures. Dr. Ruth Kappel was responsible for organising and indexing the finds as part of her practical training as a business archivist from October to December 1991. Dr. Günter Cordes took over the indexing and completion of the finding aid in 1992. The inventory was packaged by Bruno Wagner. The data acquisition was done by Hildegard Aufderklamm.Ludwigsburg, January 1992Ruth Kappel Company chronicle: 1827First attempts at chicory coffee production by Johann Franck, owner of a confectionery and speciality shop in Vaihingen/Enz1828Establishment of the chicory factory in Vaihingen/Enz by Johann Heinrich FranckEstablishment of chain stores for the production of intermediate products:- 1832 Darre in Steinbach (today Wernau, district of Esslingen)- 1844 Darre in Großgartach (today Leingarten, district of Heilbronn)- 1851 Darre with roasting plant and mill in the Rieter valley near Enzweihingen (today Vaihingen, district of Ludwigsburg)- 1855 Darre in Meimsheim (today Brackenheim, district of Heilbronn)Later foundations with freight railway connection:- 1855 Darre in Bretten (Baden)- 1880 Darre in Eppingen (Baden)- 1880 Darre in Marbach/Neckar1867 Death of company founder Johann Heinrich Franck1868 Relocation from Vaihingen to Ludwigsburg (direct railway connection)1871 Firmation to Heinrich Franck Söhne OHG, LudwigsburgFoundation of branches:- 1879 Linz/Donau- 1883 Komotau (today CR)- 1883 Milan 1883 Basel- 1887 Bucharest H.

1. history of authorities: The Technical State Office existed as the technical higher authority for the Land of Württemberg from 1 November 1933 to 31 December 1952. it had been established instead of the dissolved Department for Road and Water Construction at the Ministry of the Interior and the dissolved Department for Field Cleaning at the Central Office for Agriculture (Ordinance of the Ministry of State of 12 October 1933 Regbl. p. 396). The State Technical Office initially united all areas of state civil engineering and was responsible not only for road construction and hydraulic engineering but also for cultural construction, field cleaning and surveying. In the course of its almost 20 years of existence, the range of tasks and responsibilities changed. In particular, the separation of the field cleaning and cultural construction divisions in 1938 and the takeover of the administration of the motorways in 1945 should be mentioned here. The Ludwigsburg palace was the official seat throughout. After 1945, further offices were rented in Stuttgart. The heads of the authorities were the presidents Bauder (1933-1945), Rudolf Grossjohann (1945-1950) and Kellermann (1950-1952).1933-1937The State Technical Office was subordinated to the Ministry of the Interior, but also carried out tasks from the business area of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. It dealt with all matters of road construction and hydraulic engineering in Württemberg, in particular with the administration of the state funds provided for this purpose, and was responsible for Land Roads I and II. This responsibility was extended in October 1935 by the Inspector General for German Roads to include road construction in Hohenzollern.In the field of hydraulic engineering, the State Office was in charge of the construction and maintenance of the river sections to be maintained by the state on the Iller, Danube, Argen and Neckar, and also had advisory functions in river improvements and waterworks facilities, the use of hydropower, water supply and sewage disposal (sewerage systems, sewage treatment) by municipalities and official bodies, as well as advice in the field of water science (water level monitoring and flood service).In addition, it provided technical advice on general matters of road construction, road police and motor vehicle traffic, the approval of trams and motor vehicle lines (bus lines) and technical supervision of private railways. In the Ministry of Economic Affairs' area of responsibility, the State Technical Office dealt with cultural construction and field cleaning and formed its own "Department for Soil Improvement".In the case of field cleaning, it was particularly responsible for supervising the technical preparatory work and its execution, in the case of cultural construction, it promoted all measures for technical soil improvement (irrigation and drainage, road construction), etc. To carry out its tasks, it was directly subordinated to the higher offices, the road and hydraulic engineering offices, the cultural construction offices (renamed in 1939 to water management offices) and the surveying offices for field cleaning (later field and land consolidation offices).1938-1945On 1 January 1938, responsibility for field cleaning ("reallocation") and cultural construction was transferred to the Ministry of Economic Affairs - Department of Agriculture (Decree of the State Ministry of 10 February 1938 Regbl. p. 129). This department for agriculture was thus directly subordinated to the cultural construction offices and field cleaning offices, and the regional office retained its above-mentioned tasks in road construction and hydraulic engineering. While the tasks of road construction remained subordinated to the Ministry of the Interior, the tasks of hydraulic engineering were subordinated to the Ministry of Economy. The new division of Württemberg in 1938 was accompanied by a new division of the administrative districts (Ordinance of the State Ministry of 19.7.1938 Regbl. p. 229). The previous road and hydraulic engineering offices, field cleaning offices and cultural building offices were abolished and a new road and hydraulic engineering office, field cleaning office and cultural building office were established, whose official seat and responsibility was determined as follows: 1. Künzelsau for the districts Künzelsau and Mergentheim 2. Hall for the districts Hall and Crailsheim 3. Heilbronn for the city and district Heilbronn and district Öhringen 4. Besigheim for the districts of Ludwigsburg, Vaihingen and Leonberg 5 Schorndorf for the districts of Backnang, Waiblingen and Gmünd 6 Ellwangen for the districts of Aalen and Heidenheim 7 Herrenberg for the districts of Calw and Böblingen (dissolved in 1945) 8 Kirchheim for the district of Stuttgart and the districts of Esslingen and Nürtingen 9 Geislingen for the district of Ulm and the district of Göppingen10. Freudenstadt for the districts of Freudenstadt and Horb11. Rottenburg for the districts of Reutlingen and Tübingen12. Ehingen for the districts of Ehingen and Münsingen13. Rottweil for the districts of Rottweil, Balingen and Tuttlingen14. Riedlingen for the districts of Biberach and Saulgau15. Ravensburg for the districts of Ravensburg, Friedrichshafen and Wangen.1945-1952After the occupation of the country, the local American military authority in Ludwigsburg ordered the resumption of the activities of the Technical State Office on June 5, 1945. on the instructions of the military government formed in Stuttgart in August 1945 for the American occupied zone of North Württemberg and North Baden, the Technical State Office was to give priority to the restoration of the roads damaged by the war and of the bridges which had been destroyed for the most part.As a new task, he was assigned the administration of the motorways in North Württemberg and North Baden, since the occupying power attached particular importance to the rapid repair of these important long-distance arteries. In the course of this business growth, it set up its own "Motorways Stuttgart Department", which managed the north Württemberg and north Baden motorway sections instead of the highest construction management of the Reichsautobahnen Stuttgart (for North Württemberg) and the highest construction management of the Reichsautobahnen Frankfurt (for North Baden). For the motorways, too, the emphasis was on repair work and the repair of war damage and the reconstruction of bridges. For its tasks, the State Technical Office was responsible: the Motorways Department with its headquarters in Stuttgart and eight road and hydraulic engineering offices with its headquarters in Besigheim, Ellwangen, Geislingen, Hall, Heilbronn, Kirchheim, Künzelsau and Schorndorf. With the establishment of a special office as the National Technical Office for the French Zone in Rottenburg, to which the road and hydraulic engineering offices located in the French Zone were assigned, the National Technical Office initially attempted to maintain a joint administration. In 1946, however, the state offices were separated and the Südwürttembergische Landesamt was integrated into the Ministry of the Interior of the State of Württemberg-Hohenzollern as an independent Department VI (Road and Hydraulic Engineering), with the relocation of its headquarters to Tübingen. The Federation became the owner of the former Reichsautobahnen and Reichsstraßen, now called Bundesstraßen des Fernverkehrs, which were administered by the Länder on behalf of the Federation. In Württemberg-Baden the Technical State Office carried out the order administration for the federal motorways, for the federal roads only in the area of the state district Württemberg. In the area of public water supply and sewage disposal there were few changes (decree of the Ministry of the Interior of 18.5.1949 Official Gazette IM p. 71). Essentially, it was determined that the State Technical Office is entitled to examine all drafts for water supply systems with regard to water management and hygiene and to advise the municipalities and special-purpose associations on water supply and sewage disposal, in special cases to take over draft processing and site management and to process the applications for state contributions. Most of his duties were transferred to the Regierungspräsidium Nordwürttemberg and the newly established Autobahnamt. 2nd inventory history and processing report: The files of the Technical State Office from the years 1811-1964 which are indexed in the present find book originate from different inventories and file deliveries and were formed to a new inventory with the inventory signature E 168. the newly formed inventory consists mainly of the documents of the now dissolved inventories EL 72/1 and EL 72/2 Technical State Office Ludwigsburg, which were received in 1963 and 1972 from the Regional Council North Württemberg - Department of Road Construction and in 1986 from the Ministry of the Interior (files on motorways). In addition, the inventory contains the documents on sewage disposal and water supply from the dissolved inventory E 165 c Bauamt für Wasserversorgung, which were created after 1933. The files from the holdings E 166 Ministerial Department for Road and Hydraulic Engineering, EL 20/4 Regierungspräsidium Stuttgart - Straßenwesen und Verkehr as well as EL 74 Autobahnamt Baden-Württemberg were also classified because of their duration. To a lesser extent, previously unrecorded files of provenance from the Technical State Office as well as a file submission received in 1993 from the General State Archive Karlsruhe (see Chapter 4) have been integrated into the present inventory.in some cases, file units have been separated, assigned by provenance and this has been identified by inserted reference sheets.the documents of the Technical State Office united in this way mainly document its diverse tasks in the fields of road construction, hydraulic engineering and motorways. Only a few files shed light on the tasks in the field of cultural construction (see Chapter 4). the most extensive part of the written material, in addition to the central administrative files, consists of the documents of the road and hydraulic engineering offices of northern and southern Württemberg. The structure of the building is based on the new division of the building authority districts in 1938. The road construction files within the administrative districts are classified according to Reich roads, country roads of the first order, country roads of the second order. The files were drawn up by interns and temporary employees within the framework of AB measures under the guidance of Dr. Gerhard Taddey, Matthias Grotz and Gabriele Benning, who also took over the consolidation of the partial holdings, structuring and final editing. The packaging was provided by Mr. Siegfried Schirm, the computer-supported fair copy by Mrs. Hildegard Aufderklamm. 1214 tufts with a total circumference of 32.5 metres were in stock.

Find aids: Findkartei 1991, Findbuch 2014 (online searchable) Registraturbilddner: In February 1897, the Aktien-Maschinenfabrik Kyffhäuserhütte Artern emerged from the Paul Reuß sheet metal and coppersmith's shop that had existed since 1881. The main products were agricultural equipment and machines for customers at home and abroad. In 1904 the company joined the Wohnungsbauverein Artern eGmbH as a co-partner. In 1910 the Maschinenfabrik merged with Ergon-Kosmos AG in Karlsruhe, in 1912 with Ruhrwerke Motoren- und Dampfkesselfabrik AG in Duisburg and finally took over Eisenwerk Brünner AG (later GmbH) in Artern in 1938. Sales offices were established in Elbing/Westpreußen (today Elblang, Poland), Nuremberg, Duisburg, Prague and Karlsruhe as well as Wroclaw, Gdansk, Berlin, Frankfurt/Oder, Hanover and Vienna. In the 1920s and 1930s the production and sales offer of the company was considerably expanded. In particular, Kaha, planet and zenith milk separators, ice machines, various types of steamers, steam generators, potato and milk can washing machines, shot and fertilizer mills, boilers, hay and straw blowers, boilers and radiators were offered. During the 2nd World War, war materials, anti-aircraft accessories and gunships were also built. Between 1946 and 1949, the company was confiscated, sequestered and liquidated, and converted into the machine factory of Soviet AG Maschinenbau vorm. Kyffhäuserhütte (SAG) in the Transmasch combine. In 1952 the company was transferred into public ownership as VEB Maschinenfabrik Kyffhäuserhütte. Inventory information: In 1988, the company archive of the VEB Kyffhäuserhütte Artern handed over to the State Archive Magdeburg documents of the Aktien-Maschinenfabrik Kyffhäuserhütte Artern and its successor company which had been indexed via a number list and an incomplete card index. The partial revision of the index data was carried out in 1991 by an archival assistant, with minor corrections to archive signatures, durations and file titles. There were no cassations of archive material. In 1994 the Landeshauptarchiv Magdeburg transferred the files to the newly founded Landesarchiv Merseburg. In 2011 the card index was first retroconverted in the archive program scopeArchiv, in 2014 the final archive processing of the files took place. Additional information: Further parts of the company tradition of the Kyffhäuserhütte Aktienmaschinenfabrik Artern or from the time of the VEB Maschinenfabrik Kyffhäuserhütte are kept in the Museum Kyffhäuserhütte (Artern, Oberer Hof) and at the Kyffhäuser Maschinenfabrik Artern GmbH (Artern, Otto-Brünner-Straße 4).

Das Museum verfügt über kein Archivgut mehr aus der Kolonialzeit, mit Ausnahme von Originalfotos der Ausstellungsobjekte für die Deutsch-koloniale Jagdausstellung in Karlsruhe 1903 (20.05.-15.06.1903). Motive der Fotos sind vornehmlich Jagdwaffen und Tiere (Primaten etc.). Das gesamte Archivgut (mit ganz wenigen Ausnahmen) befindet sich schon seit Langem beim Landesarchiv. Die Jagdausstellung 1903 fand in der Festhalle (historisch) Karlsruhes statt und wurde von der deutschen Kolonialgesellschaft veranstaltet. Im September 1944 wurde dieses Gebäude bei Luftangriffen zum großen Teil zerstört. Anfang November 1952 wurden die Überreste für den Bau der Schwarzwaldhalle (aktuelles Gebäude) gesprengt. Der „Offizielle Katalog der Deutsch-Kolonialen Jagdausstellung“ befindet sich im Bestand der Bibliothek und ist vor Ort als Digitalisat einsehbar (85 Seiten). Auch die Sammlung der 64 Originalfotografien (22 x 16 cm) inclusive der Bestandskasette sind vor Ort as Digitalisat einsehbar. Darüber hinaus ist das Ölgemälde „Elefanten flüchten vor dem Steppenbrand“ (2 Meter x 3 Meter) des Malers und Großwildjägers Wilhelm Kunert seit Ausstellungende im Eigentum des Museums. Dieses schmückt seit vielen Jahren eine Wand im zentralen Auerbachsaal.

History of the authorities: After the National Socialists seized power, special courts were added to the existing criminal courts on the basis of the decree of the Reich government of 21 March 1933 (RGBl. I p. 136). The legal basis for this was Chapter II of Part Six of the 3rd Ordinance of the Reich President of 6 October 1931 on Securing the Economy and Finance and Combating Political Violence (RGBl. I p. 565). The special courts were formed for the Higher Regional Court districts and were composed of a chairman and two assessors. The special court rulings were not subject to appeal. By decree of 27 March 1933 on the formation of special courts (Bad. Justizministerialblatt Nr. 6 vom 28.3.1933, p. 47), Mannheim was designated as the seat of the special court for the Karlsruhe Higher Regional Court district. The public prosecutor's office at the Mannheim Regional Court was the prosecuting authority. The registry of the Mannheim Regional Court was also the registry of the Special Court. The allocation of business to the Special Court was made by the President of the Long Court. With effect from 1 November 1940, a separate special court was formed at the Freiburg Regional Court for the districts of Freiburg, Constance, Offenburg and Waldshut. The jurisdiction of the special courts was generally governed by the following provisions:1. § 8 of the Law against Betrayal of the German National Economy of 12.6.1933 (RGBl. I p. 360);2nd Ordinance of the Reich President for the Protection of People and State of 28.2.1933 (RGBl. I p. 83);3rd Ordinance of the Reich President for the Defence against Insidious Attacks against the Government of the National Survey of 21.3.1933 (RGBl. I p. 135);4. law against insidious attacks on state and party and for the protection of party uniforms of 20.12.1934 (RGBl. I p. 1269);5. law for the guarantee of the right peace of 13.10.1933 (RGBl. I p. 723);6. law for the protection of the party uniforms of 13.10.1933 (RGBl. I p. 723);6. law for the protection of the party uniforms of 20.12.1934 (RGBl. I p. 1269) 134 b Reichsstrafgesetzbuch according to the ordinance of the Reich government of 24.9.1935 (RGBl. I p. 136);7. § 134 a Reichsstrafgesetzbuch according to the ordinance of the Reich government of 5.2.1936 (RGBl. I p. 97);8. ordinance of 20.11.1938 (RGBl. I p. 1632) for crimes that belonged to the jurisdiction of the jury court or a lower court if immediate conviction appeared necessary;9th Ordinance on Extraordinary Broadcasting Measures of 1.9.1939 (RGBl. I p. 1683);10. § 1 of the War Economy Ordinance of 4.9.1939 (RGBl. I p. 1609);11. § 1 of the Ordinance Against Popular Pests of 5.9.1939 (RGBl. I p. 1679);12. §§ 1, 2 of the Ordinance Against Violent Criminals of 5.12.1939 (RGBl. I p. 2378);13. § 239 a Reichsstrafgesetzbuch;14. Law against road theft by means of car traps of 22.6.1938 (RGBl. I p. 651);15. § 5 of the War Special Criminal Law Ordinance of 17.8.1938 (RGBl. I p. 1455): according to decree of the Reich Ministry of Justice of 27.5.In 1940, after the jurisdiction of the Wehrmacht courts to convict civilians for criminal offences under § 5 of the War Special Criminal Law Ordinance had been transferred to the general courts, the prosecuting authorities were instructed to bring charges before the Special Court in all significant cases.16Furthermore, charges could be brought before the Special Court for violations of the Act Implementing the Four-Year Plan of 29 October 1936 and of the Ordinance on Penalties and Criminal Proceedings for Violations of Price Regulations of 3 June 1939. History: The establishment of the special court in Mannheim as a department of the regional court there was not without difficulties. The frequent change of court referees had an effect on the conduct of official business. This had a negative effect not least on file management. The office was located in Heidelberg during the war. The court partially met in Karlsruhe. As a result of the district events, the special court files were partially destroyed. Many files were sent to other judicial authorities at the end of the war. During the occupation of the court building in Heidelberg in the spring of 1945, the files of the special court registry were thrown into the cellar, all lacings were loosened and so disordered that the context of the individual case-related documents no longer existed. Some of the files were outsourced by the occupying power in various places. In the summer of 1948, the written material was successively returned to the public prosecutor's office at the Mannheim Regional Court and, from 1976 onwards, several partial deliveries were made to the General State Archives. Order and distortion: The present collection is divided into two main parts. The first part lists the procedural and investigative files. From the years 1933 and 1934, only the reference files of the trial files have survived; of the investigation files, with a few exceptions, the years 1933 to 1935 are completely missing. Since, however, the process and investigation registers recorded in the second part of the finding aid have been preserved, at least the activity of the court can be reconstructed. The entries in the register are shown in a selection in this finding aid (cases for which no files are available). 1976 Mr. Wilhelm Steinbach began with the title entries. The completion or revision was carried out by the undersigned.Karlsruhe, in January 1993Manfred Hennhöfer[slightly revised version of the preface from 1993] Conversion: In 2015, the indexing data were converted to fonds 507 and processed into the available online finding aids.

Tradition and order: On 25 October 1848, the Grand Ducal Secret Cabinet commissioned the Ludwig Law Office of the General State Archives to organize the files in the cabinet's registry, whereby "those papers which are suitable for storage in the General State Archives or in the registries of the various ministries were to be handed over there". He found the files, which dated back to the first reign of Margrave Karl Friedrich, "in seven overcrowded boxes". Law Firm Councillor Ludwig divided the files into four main parts: a) files for the older and b) files for the current registry of the cabinet c) files for the Großh. Haus- und Familienarchiv d) files for the Großh. StaatsarchivIn the year 1860, these administrative tasks were completed and the files mentioned under c) and d) had already been submitted to the General State Archives in 1850. In the years 1879, 1881, 1882 and 1885 further deliveries took place. Insofar as these files were not incorporated into the family archives or assigned to the various holdings of the General State Archives, they were kept in a special cabinet. When the holdings of the General State Archives were divided into repositories in 1888, the files submitted by the Privy Cabinet received Repositur II, 2. Nevertheless, the previously practised division procedure was retained for the consignments of 1891, 1907 and 1908. With the abolition of the Privy Cabinet in 1919, almost all of the remaining registry was transferred to the General State Archives. The Badisches Ministerium des Auswärtigen retained only those files which it needed to continue the business of the Order Chancellery; these files are now held by the Staatsministerium 233. Individual inventories can be found partly in GLA 68/778 and partly in GLA 450/403 and 1200. This finding aid was created in 1964 on the basis of older card indexes. In 2009, it was converted into an online find book with funds from the German Research Foundation (DFG) and then edited by Christoph Florian and Alfred Becher. According to the requirements of Scope-Archiv, numerous collective title recordings in particular had to be resolved. However, the individual titles and the differentiation according to individual runtimes and deviations in content led in some cases to the creation of very extensive headings in which the chronological order is no longer clearly discernible. The further subdivision would have been consistent; as a fundamental intervention in order and category sequence, this could not be achieved within the framework of the search instrument conversion. The conversion to online finding aids remained problematic in the treatment of Julius Kastner's meritorious but very detailed indices. For the collection in SCOPE archive the in-depth entries of Kastner were difficult, the result remained unsatisfactory; the indices must be worked on completely again. Since this was not possible within the scope of the finding aid conversion, only a Word version is available for the time being in the printed find book copies of the General State Archives; it was created by Christoph Florian from the typewritten template. Full text search is recommended for online searches. History: A cabinet government in the proper sense, as it existed in Prussia, for example, hardly ever existed in Baden. The system of government of Margrave Karl Wilhelm, which could at best be described as a cabinet government, did not continue under his grandson. Margrave Karl Friedrich founded the Privy Cabinet in 1783, which formed only a committee from the Privy Council and was not comparable with the Prussian institution of the same name. Simultaneously with the abolition of the Privy Council College in 1808 and the division of the central administration into five ministerial departments, the Grand Duke determined: "Around Our Highest Person We Form a Cabinet Council" (Regierungsblatt 1808 p. 187). This Cabinet was one of the Supreme State Authorities and was assigned the following business area: 1. Processing of all letters addressed to the Grand Duke 2. All Systematica, establishing and prescribing the general constitutional and administrative and principles 3. All Family and House Affairs 4. All Court, Order and Civil Uniform Affairs 5. All Court and State Ceremonial 6. The Directorate of the General State Archives 7. Supervision and Management of the State Handbook to be published annually 8. The Affairs of the Art Institutions belonging to the Court (= Reg. Bl. 1808 S.193But already in the following year, as a result of the organizational edict of 26 November 1809, this "Cabinet Ministry" was abolished again as a special department. The "Cabinets Minister" remained "the organ through which the requests of the Ministries to Us and Our Resolution go to them" (= Reg. Bl. 1809 p. 397). On 21 September 1811 the Grand Duke appointed the State Councillors Brauer, Hofer and Wielandt as Secret Cabinet Councils, the Legation Council Ring as Secret Expedition Council and the Expeditor Weiß as Secret Cabinet Secretary (= Reg. Bl. 1811 p. 108). The "Geheimen Cabinets-Referate" (Secret Cabinets) thus created were abolished on 15 June 1817. For the objects to be processed in the Secret Cabinet a State Secretary was appointed, who at the same time became a member of the State Ministry and the State Council (= Reg. Bl. 1817 p.65). Thus the Secret Cabinet lost its central importance, which had been intended in 1808, early on; what remained was the role of a secretariat for the personal government actions of the sovereign. Towards the middle of the 19th century the Secret Cabinet consisted of a board of directors, a registrar and a chancellor's list. After a separate Court Secretariat had been set up on 24 May 1854 to deal with the Court's administrative affairs (= Reg. Bl. 1854 p. 256), the Privy Cabinet processed: 1. all ideas, complaints, petitions and other submissions directly addressed to the Grand Duke, insofar as they did not belong to the business circles of the Court's offices and were not purely matters of support; 2. the Court's administrative office was set up on 24 May 1854 (= Reg. Bl. 1854 p. 256); 3. the Court's administrative office was set up on 24 May 1854; 3. the Court's administrative office was set up on 24 May 1854 (= Reg. Bl. 1854 p. 256); 3. the Court's administrative office was set up on 24 May 1854. Execution of highest orders in matters of state administration; 3. appointment to upper court and court batches; 4. drafting of highest hand letters; 5. affairs of the order secretariat. On 14 April 1919 the ministry of state ordered the abolition of the secret cabinet. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (= Gesetz- und Verordnungsblatt 1919 p. 245) was responsible for handling the business of the Order's Chancellery. Content: Although the holdings cover almost all areas of politics, economics, culture, confessions, court and military, they often contain a richer and more complete tradition that can be found in the respective specialist authorities. Because of the many pencil-written concepts of Grand Duke Friedrich I he nevertheless occupies a central place among the court documents. Since the applications for immediate assistance are mostly requests for support, gifts, addresses, etc., numerous artists, writers and associations are represented here.Julius Kastner 1964 / Hansmartin Schwarzmaier 1991Konrad Krimm 2009

Preliminary remark: The inventory contains documents from all areas of the State Forestry Administration. The administration of the forestry office is well documented, as is the administration of the state forest. The management of the corporate forest has been handed down through documents on the municipal forests of Altlussheim, Heidelberg, Hockenheim, Käfertal (Mannheim-), Ladenburg, Mosbach, Neckarau, Neulussheim, Oftersheim, Otterstadt, Plankstadt, Schwetzingen, Seckenheim and Speyer as well as the hub forest of Altlussheim. Some few documents are available for the management of the Wehrmacht forest Schwetzingen. Some documents are dedicated to the management of the private forest. The stock 392 Schwetzingen was newly created with documents from the stocks 392 access 1988-33, 392 access 1990-30, 392 access 2003-36, 392 access 2004-27, 392 access 2004-40, 392 access 2004-55, 392 access 2004-56, 392 access 2004-59, 392 access 2004-90, 392 access 2005-140, 392 access 2007-59 and 442 access 2004-103.Dr. Jürgen Treffeisen(August 2010)

The chamber's reporting is the result of French legal tradition. Annual reports of the Cologne Chamber of Commerce have been published since 1823. For the first time reporting was made legally binding by the statute of the Chamber of Commerce of Elberfeld and Barmen in 1830. The Prussian decree of 11 February 1848 on the establishment of chambers of commerce made the reporting of the chambers obligatory. Section 24 reads as follows: 'Each year in January, the Chambers of Commerce shall submit a main report to the Minister of Finance on the situation and progress of trade and industry, and shall at the same time submit a copy to the President of the Office of Commerce and the Government. They are obliged to inform the traders and tradesmen of their district of their effectiveness and of the situation and course of trade and trade through the public papers by means of continuous notifications of extracts from the consultation minutes and at the end of each year in a special overview". Further laws of 24 February 1870 and 19 August 1897 expressly emphasised this obligation to submit a report. Since 1897 the reports had to be reproduced in print. Until 1914 the reports were steadily expanded and systematized. This corresponded to the interest of the chambers and the Minister for Trade and Industry, who had the reports published in a supplement of the Prussian Trade Archives until 1872. The Prussian Statistical Bureau, which evaluated the annual reports and based them on comparative overviews of trade and traffic from 1861 onwards, pushed for standardization. The law of 1870, which obliged the chambers to reconcile their interests, did not prevent them from using their annual report as a mouthpiece for their views on economic policy. Free trade and customs were discussed in the annual reports. Although a standardization of the annual reports could not be achieved, the separation of the sections "Views, expert opinions and wishes" (Part A) and "Actual" (Part B) recommended by the Director of the Statistical Bureau, Engel, prevailed. As a rule, Part B contains statistical material which, from today's perspective, provides important data on regional economic and social history. After the First World War, only in exceptional cases did the summary descriptions of the wartime period provided for in the decree of the Prussian Minister of Commerce of 27 October 1914 appear. It was not until 1919 that annual reports were required again. After 1920, many chambers began to produce monthly reports together with neighbouring chambers due to overloading of their scientific officials. The procedure was expressly approved by the Ministry of Commerce, which had been compiling the reports in its magazine "Handel und Gewerbe" since January 1921. Some chambers continued to print annual reports, others presented them in duplicate to the plenary meetings. The monthly reporting of the chambers lasted until 1936. From 1934 to 1939, the Chambers of Commerce produced internal reports every two or three months, some of which were incorporated into their periodicals. With the expansion of official statistics at the Reich, Land and local levels, the Chambers' annual reports lost weight and their character as a decision-making aid for state and municipal administrations. In addition, they were often already outdated when they appeared. Since about 1900 the chambers have countered this development by publishing periodicals, so-called newsletters. After the Second World War, the Law Provisionally Regulating the Law of Chambers of Commerce and Industry did not include a provision on annual reporting, but in practice all chambers publish annual reports and monthly newsletters from 1950 at the latest. The information contained therein is indispensable as a source of regional history. The following overview covers exclusively annual reports from the German-speaking area as well as from Austria-Hungary (before 1918) and the German colonial areas (before 1918). The name of the chamber is preceded by the respective signature in inventory S 6. The annual reports of the DIHT from 1951/52 onwards can be found under the signature S 7 No. 562. Reports of chambers of crafts can also be found in the stock S 7. Reports for the years 1860 to 1872 can also be found in the periodical "Jahresberichte der Handelskammern und kaufmännischen Korporationen des Preußischen Staates" (WWA Library P 11). 76 linear metres I Chambers of Industry and Commerce in today's North Rhine-Westphalia 959 Aachen 1854-1859, 1864, 1868-1870, 1874-1914, 1924-1932, 1949-1996 (1914-1918 "The Aachen Chamber of Commerce and the War") 945 Altena 1853-1854, 1856-1857, 1857-1858, 1859-1861, 1862/1863, 1875-1913 946 Arnsberg 1854-1859, 1873-1908, 1910 ,1911, 1913, 1924-1930, 1937, 1938, 1948, 1950-1956, 1965-1973 960 Barmen (seea.

On the postal history of Baden between 1872 and 1934: in 1811, the Grand Duchy of Baden took the postal system out of the hands of Thurn und Taxis and transferred it to state control. A postal directorate was created, which in 1814 was transformed into a regional postal directorate. In 1843, after the introduction of the railway, the "Direktion der Posten und Eisenbahnen" (Directorate of Posts and Railways) was created, which was renamed "Direktion der Großherzoglich Badischen Verkehrsanstalten" in 1854. In connection with his entry into the German Reich, Baden renounced his postal sovereignty. On January 1, 1872, the Baden Postal Correspondents were transferred to the Imperial Imperial Post Office, after the railway system, which had not been handed over, had been separated from the postal administration again (see Resistance Group 421). After 1872, the real estate assets of the Baden Post remained the property of the Baden State, but could be used by the Reichspost, which of course remained free to purchase new land and buildings for its own purposes. The Reichspostverwaltung set up two Oberpostdirektionen (OPD) in Baden as the central authority, based in Karlsruhe and Constance, whose mutual borders ran south of the Kehl-Appenweier-Oppenau railway line. The OPD Karlsruhe was also assigned the Hessian district of Wimpfen, the OPD Konstanz the Prussian part of Hohenzollern; both areas were also looked after by the Reichspost, while the neighbouring kingdom of Württemberg had kept its own post office after 1871. The two Oberpostdirektionen were subordinated to the General Post Office (from 1880 Reichspostamt, from 1919 Reichspostministerium) as the higher authority. Since telegraphy in the North German Confederation had been subject to its own "General Directorate of Telegraphs", in 1872 telegraphy in Baden had also been removed from the jurisdiction of the post office. But already on 1 January 1876 the fusion of post and telegraphy took place in the Reichspost area. From now on the telegraph stations in Baden were subject to the two regional post offices and the Reichspostamt, partly as independent telegraph stations or offices, but mostly united with post offices. In 1934 the OPD Karlsruhe, like the other regional post offices of the Reich, was renamed "Reichspostdirektion" (RPD). On the basis of the Act of 27 February 1934 simplifying and reducing the cost of administration, which was fundamental to the postal and telecommunications sectors, the Constance OPD was dissolved with effect from 1 April 1934 and, after a transitional period, finally ceased to exist on 1 October 1937. Its territory was assigned to the RPD Karlsruhe, which also took over the files of the OPD Konstanz and partially continued them. Explanations on holdings 419: The majority of the files listed in this finding aid were delivered by the RPD Karlsruhe in 1941 (access 1941-17). The smaller part was taken from the deliveries of the OPD Karlsruhe 454 access 1980-30, 419 access 1981-49 and 454 access 1982-18 according to provenance. The OPD Karlsruhe kept an old registration of about 1500 running meters. Files from the foundation of the Reichspostverwaltung in 1872, of which only the aforementioned access had reached the Generallandesarchiv in 1941. After the General State Archives had tried in vain in 1961 to deliver the remaining documents, the OPD had the entire old files destroyed without consulting the archives by house decree of 20 April 1970. This means that the only closed old register of an OPD in Germany, which also contained the documents of the OPD Konstanz, which was dissolved in 1934, has been lost. The duration of the material files of inventory 419 essentially covers the period 1872-1945. Only a few files of the management of the Großherzoglich Badischen Verkehrsanstalten and collections of circular decrees of the General Post Office Berlin to Prussian Oberpostdirketionen, which had apparently been handed over to the OPD Karlsruhe as information necessary for the course of business, continued in the Oberpostdirketionen and date back further. Some files of the access 1941 were classified in the personal files (see below), one file came according to its provenance to stock 418, six files were cashed. Since the numbering of the access was maintained 1941-17, the following numbers are no longer used: 1-7, 10, 11, 13, 65, 121-128, 193, 522, 676, 697, 713, 720, 753, 758, 774, 838, 883, 935-936 and 939-940.The older personnel files of inventory 419 have been added to the General State Archives with the additions 1938-42 (61 personnel files of the OPD Konstanz), 1941-17 (6 personnel files of the OPD Karlsruhe) and 1981-49 (2252 personnel files of the OPDn or RPD Karlsruhe and Konstanz and the OPD Karlsruhe after 1945). The personnel files of the 1941 access were incorporated into the 1981 access and the list of consignments was supplemented accordingly. Song and processing of the inventory: A file plan for the RPD documents is not available and could not be obtained from the OPD Karlsruhe. For example, the classification of the inventory is based on the usual division of the postal and telecommunications sectors into operations and administration, with attempts being made to reconstruct the file plan from the registry signatures on the file covers. The greater part of the documents are special maps, which were led by the OPDn to the individual transport companies of their district. These are post offices, postal agencies, postal branch offices, railway post offices, postal auxiliaries and independent telegraph stations or offices. These files shall regularly contain the following documents: Professional records, audit reports from post offices, inventories, duty schedules, guides for the training of postal and telegraph staff, which are no longer mentioned in the repertory itself. Further details on the legal status, business area and internal operation of the individual transport companies can be found in the description by K. Sautter (see bibliography), pp. 37-41. Under the direction of the undersigned, the State Archives officers Rudolf Benl, Robert Kretzschmar and Sybille Wittenberg carried out the drawing up of the records and the order in the spring of 1982, and Brigitte Weiler, an aspiring inspector, added additions. The fair copy of the repertory was provided by Mrs. Eva-Maria Staron. Karlsruhe, June 30, 1982 Dr. H.

The Presidents of the State District of Baden: With the decree of the American military government of 13 July 1945, the emeritus literary scholar Prof. Dr. Karl Holl was appointed Chief President of the Landeskommissarbezirk Mannheim. His work remained limited in the first few weeks to Mannheim and the surrounding area. Karlsruhe was initially under French occupation. By reorganizing the French and American zones, the Americans extended Holl's sphere of competence to the Baden part of the newly formed state of Württemberg-Baden. On September 3, 1945, Holl was released in the course of an American denazification measure. On September 10 Dr. Heinrich Köhler was appointed. While the individual ministries of the state of Württemberg-Baden in Stuttgart communicated with the Württemberg authorities without intermediate authority, in the American zone of the Baden state territory the state district administration of Baden was interposed, with the exception of the organisation of the administration of justice, which consisted of five departments: President - Internal administration - Labour, social affairs and reconstruction - Cult and education - Finance. The documents of these departments were included in the files of the later Regierungspräsidium Karlsruhe. With the death of Heinrich Köhler on 6 February 1949, the time of a full-time state district president in Baden was over. The position of state district president was only filled on a provisional basis. In this function, Gustav Zimmermann initially held office until his death on August 1, 1949. Until January 11, 1951, Dr. Edmund Kaufmann also served only briefly as provisional state district president. He was succeeded by Ministerial Director Dr. Hans Unser until his death on 27 November 1951. The last president was Dr. Hermann Veit. The formation of the state of Baden-Württemberg in 1952 with the establishment of the four administrative districts unified the administrative division in the new federal state. Tasks and powers of the President: The individual departments of the state district administration were responsible for the specialist tasks. The President, who was able to intervene in the competence of the departments, reserved the right to participate in all fundamental matters as well as in the appointment and promotion of civil servants. In March 1947 the course of business of the presidential office was reorganised. President Köhler reserved the right to sign in draft and in execution all decisions of fundamental and political importance, certain decisions in personnel matters, all matters reserved by the President for signing, all lectures to the State Ministry and letters to the Ministries in Stuttgart. In 1950, the then President Dr. Kaufmann reorganised his competences and tasks within the Baden district administration. He stressed that he should be involved in all administrative matters of fundamental, political and financial importance. In addition, all personnel matters of fundamental or political importance were reserved for the President. The other competences of the President are resolutions of fundamental, political, organisational and financial importance for the district of Baden or which affect the business activities of all the regional district directorates, complaints of official oversight, draft budget for information, notification of budget overruns of a certain amount, representation of the district administration in its entirety, certification of subsidies in excess of DM 200, publication of the official gazette of the district of Baden. Structure and organization of the Presidential Department: In 1947, the Presidential Department was divided into two departments: Department 1: Head of Service, Presidential Affairs, County Council Affairs, State Ministerial Affairs, Representation Affairs, Legal Affairs, Presidential Staff, Motor Affairs, Press Affairs, Official Gazette of the County Administration, Correspondence on more important matters and those of fundamental importance from Department 2. Unit 2: Civil servants' and salaried staff's rights and collective bargaining regulations for civil servants and public sector workers (general), appointment and dismissal of civil servants and recruitment of employees, right to travel and removal expenses (general), State budget matters, factual and personal expenditure of the Bureau, co-administration of representation matters, disposition funds, certifications (legalisation of documents), special mandates of the President, deputisation for Unit 1.A slightly different picture was provided by the business distribution plan of 5 May 1950. The tasks of the Presidential Office were now divided into three units. Unit 1 was called "President", Unit 2 "Legal Unit", Unit 3 "Human Resources and Budget Unit". Traditional history: The written records of the presidential office of the president of the state district of Baden are always singular if they were created within the exclusive competence of the personally small presidential office, i.e. for representation matters, contacts with the press, approval of support, various honours and partly in personnel matters. A typical feature of a large part of the files is the numerous newspaper clippings that they contained, which served to inform the President. This collection forms a unique source for the immediate post-war period. Not only does it document the structure of the German administration in the North Baden area and the beginnings of the new state structure in the German southwest, but it also reflects the misery and the manifold problems faced by the population, administration and politics in view of the catastrophic consequences of the war and the collapse, and the way in which they were coped with. The registry of the president of the Baden district filed the documents in accordance with the Badische Amtsregistraturordnung by H. Fackler (1905). The main headings of this classification were retained in the reorganisation of the stock. Further literature: The President of the State District of Baden (1945-1952). President's Office. Inventory of the holdings 481 in the General State Archive Karlsruhe. Edited by Jürgen Treffeisen, Stuttgart 1997 (Booklets of the State Archive Administration Baden-Württemberg. Published by the Landesarchivdirektion Baden-Württemberg. Series E General State Archive Karlsruhe Issue 1). Conversion of the finding aid: The inventory 481 was ordered and recorded by Dr. Jürgen Treffeisen in the years 1991 to 1993. He provided the finding aid book with a detailed account of the history of the authorities, which is still valid and on which the abridged explanations in this finding aid are based, and a detailed report by the editor. The inventory was printed in 1997. The indexing data for inventory 481 were transferred to the software ScopeArchiv as part of the project "Conversion of old finding aid data" of the General State Archive Karlsruhe, which was carried out by Guido Fögler in the years 2006-2008, in order to be able to produce an online finding aid from it. The project was supervised by Alexander Hoffmann, who - apart from very little remaining work by the undersigned - also took over the final editing of the converted finding aids. Because corrections had to be made and supplements inserted, the converted finding aid replaces the content of the old finding aid book from 1993 and the printed inventory from 1997.Karlsruhe, January 2011Dr. Martin Stingl

Inventory description: Abt. 209 Postcards Size: approx. 9000 pieces in 9 wooden boxes and 4 cartons, including 1. 3730 original postcards Worms/Umland and approx. 80 digital copies = 3521 registered pieces 2. approx. 5700 pieces other postcards without Worms or regional reference as well as duplicates Duration: after 1880 - 2001 How the postcards came into the archive and in which period the postcard collection was built up is not known. It is likely that these are mainly individual donations from users and smaller purchases. The collection also includes digital copies based on original originals in private ownership. In January 2006, the postcards of Mrs. Gerlinde Mauer, a temporary worker at the Jewish Museum, were re-sorted, while the existing group sorting was retained. From March to November 2011 the motifs related to Worms and its immediate surroundings as well as the military postcards were scanned with 300 dpi in original size and described by Mrs. Ingeborg Abigt in Augias until February 2012. For this purpose, a new classification was developed based on the old one. In addition, more postcards have been added ever since. The collection is stored in 10 wooden boxes in the magazine, shelf no. 46. The focus of the postcard collection is on collected views of Worms sights and views of the churches. The collection also contains a large number of military and propaganda cards, as well as postcards relating to the Grand Ducal Family. One part is unmarked, another has been sent by post and is marked with text, addressee and stamp. Since these are already published pictures, the stock is released for use. Reproductions, however, can only be made for private purposes due to the predominantly unclear legal situation. Exceptions are postcards of the publishers Christian Herbst and Füller, which can also be used for commercial projects and publications, as the city of Worms owns the rights, and postcards older than 70 years and therefore in the public domain.

Curriculum vitae of Karl Fritz: Karl Fritz, born on 29 November 1914 in Pfullendorf as the son of a plasterer and a part-time farmer, was made possible by a scholarship to attend the grammar school in Constance. Immediately after graduating from high school, he completed his work service, which was followed by military service with the infantry regiment 114 in Konstanz and with the military district command in Ehingen an der Donau. From November 1, 1938, the day he joined the NSDAP, until October 31, 1941, he was an administrative candidate for the "upper middle administrative service" (including Überlingen, Konstanz, and Stockach), and from November 1, 1942 he was employed as a government inspector in various positions (including Karlsruhe and Sinsheim). From the summer of 1943 until the end of the war, he had joined the Wehrmacht and served in southern France. Based in Freiburg since October 1945, Karl Fritz resumed his administrative duties at the Ministry of the Interior. In 1952, he was transferred to the Transport Department of the South Baden Regional Council, where he retired in 1977 as a senior civil servant. Karl Fritz died on 29 November 1990 in Freiburg. Inventory history: According to family tradition, Karl Fritz, possibly inspired by the example of an uncle, began to "collect" contemporary historical material at an early age. Posters from the authorities in which he was employed were completed, and duplicates of posters and brochures were the main focus of his collection. This is enhanced in terms of content by the collection of banknotes, above all emergency money, which has been collected from all over the German Reich. The "Karl Fritz" collection (stock W 307), which had grown to 40 m, was donated to the Freiburg State Archives in 1993. An initial inspection revealed that not all the documents were worthy of archiving. In addition, the collection contained material that was difficult to include in the documentation profile of the State Archives. Extensive order work followed. First, the newspaper collection and the literature on contemporary history were transferred to the service library of the State Archives and - in the case of documents on military history - to the Federal Archives and Military Archives; then the posters were separated and the W 113 collection of Karl Fritz posters was formed. A number of posters of East Prussian origin were handed over to the Geheime Staatsarchiv Preußischer Kulturbesitz, some pieces of Berlin origin to the Landesarchiv Berlin. The same happened with the picture material, from which the present collection W 145/2 - Bildsammlung Karl Fritz arose, which was catalogued and digitised by Annika Scheumann and Martin Schittny. The collection now comprises 938 numbers in 0.4 lfd.m.Freiburg, in September 2010Kurt Hochstuhl

Formation history: By order of the "Army Group Gaede", control of border traffic between the Grand Duchy of Baden and Switzerland was organised militarily as early as October 1914. The catenary of the border guard was transferred to Colonel von Liebenstein. The staff began its work on 2 November 1914 in Lörrach. Landstorm units were assigned to him to fulfil his tasks. The scope of duties included protection against the import and export of unauthorized information, the prevention of espionage, the surveillance of the movement of goods, the control of persons and the search for deserters and escaped prisoners of war. Inventory history: After the end of the war, the files remained with the clearinghouse of the infantry regiment 114. From January 1920, the establishment of an archive of the XIV Army Corps began, in which the archives of the clearinghouses were brought together. In autumn 1920 the corps archive moved to the infantry barracks in Heilbronn. From January 1921, the Corps Archives entered the portfolio of the Reich Ministry of the Interior under the name Aktenverwaltung XIV, before being incorporated into the Reichsarchiv in Potsdam as the Heilbronn archive branch on April 1, 1921. As a result of the merger of the Heilbronn and Stuttgart branches of the Reich Archives, the holdings were transferred to Stuttgart in 1924. The Württembergische Archivdirektion, which took over the administration of the holdings of the Army Archives Stuttgart after the end of the Second World War, handed over the XIV Army Corps to the General State Archives Karlsruhe in the years 1947 to 1949. A very detailed history of the holdings is contained in the foreword of the Deputy General Command of the XIV Army Corps (holdings 456 F 8). 20 fascicles with a circumference of 0.30 linear metres are included in the holdings.

Formation history: The task of this stage was to supply the army by supplying it with armed forces and other army needs. The resources and supplies of the theatre of war could also be used. To each army belonged a stage inspection; to independent corps and/or army departments a stage command. The stage area was again subdivided into stage command posts, whose remit corresponded to that of a stage inspection. The documents of the following stage commandantures have been handed down in the inventory:Mobile Stage Command Office 43 [Colmar] including the District Directorate Colmar;Mobile Stage Command Office 64 [Laon];Mobile Stage Command Office 84 [Sissonne];Mobile Stage Command Office 104 [Schlettstadt];Mobile Stage Command Office 124 [Villerupt];Mobile Stage Command Office 140 [Busigny];Mobile Stage Command Office 167 [Vervins];Mobile stage command post 172 [Mulhouse in Alsace];Mobile stage command post 173 [Schirmeck];Mobile stage command post 184 [Flobecq];Mobile stage command post 185 [Müllheim];Mobile stage command post 279 [Virton];Mobile stage command post 297 [Arlon];Mobile stage command post 363 [Maniewicze].In addition to the documents of the mobile stage commandant's offices responsible for the stage area, the files of the district director Colmar on the implementation of the surveillance of the civilian population and the recording of the hostages abducted by the French are of particular interest. Inventory history: After the end of the war, the files of the mobile stage commandant's offices remained with the Leib-Grenadier Regiment 109. From January 1920, the establishment of an archive of the XIV Army Corps was begun, in which the archives of the stage commandant's offices were brought together. In autumn 1920 the corps archive moved to the infantry barracks in Heilbronn. From January 1921, the Corps Archives entered the portfolio of the Reich Ministry of the Interior under the name Aktenverwaltung XIV, before being incorporated into the Reichsarchiv in Potsdam as the Heilbronn archive branch on April 1, 1921.
