History of the Inventory Designer: Based on a secret memorandum by Adolf Hitler from the summer of 1936 (handed down in R 3/1501), the new four-year plan was officially announced at the Reich Party Congress in September 1936. The Prussian Prime Minister Hermann Göring (RGBl. I 1936, p. 887) was appointed as the commissioner for the four-year plan on 18 October 1936; the Prussian State Ministry under Hermann Göring (office of the State Secretary Körner) acted as the central office. He was given the authority to centrally control all economic measures, in particular war economic measures, including the power to issue instructions to the Reich ministries and all levels of the party. The task of the (second) four-year plan was to focus the German economy on armament and war production and to reduce dependence on foreign imports (self-sufficiency efforts), above all in the raw materials and food sectors, in order to achieve the goals set by Hitler ("1. The German army must be operational in four years. 2. the German economy must be war-capable in four years"). The most important measures were, on the one hand, the quota system for important raw materials and their partly synthetic production in the Reich, and, on the other hand, the planning and control of labour input as well as the stabilization of wages and prices in order to channel investment into the capital goods industry and restrict private consumption. To carry out the tasks, numerous special representatives were appointed and various special authorities created, including for the economic exploitation of the occupied and annexed territories. In 1940, the four-year plan was extended by a further four years with the proviso that it was adapted to the needs of the war (RGBl. I 1940, p. 1395). From 1942, however, more and more powers were transferred to the Reich Minister for Armament and Ammunition (later for Armament and War Production). Inventory description: The four-year plan announced by Hitler in 1936 aimed to enable Germany to wage war economically and militarily within four years. The Prussian Prime Minister Hermann Göring, who was entrusted with this task, was given far-reaching powers in the economic and defence sectors, especially in the supply of raw materials. Inventory history: The registry of both the headquarters of the Commissioner for the Four-Year Plan and of the numerous subordinate institutions must be regarded as almost completely lost as a result of the war events. Only a few fragments of the tradition have survived. The greater part of it is in the special archive in Moscow (fund no. 700, 337 file units), while the smaller part is in the two central German archives in East and West. The Koblenz Federal Archives kept 55 files, which today bear the signatures no. 1-52 and originate from various acquisitions; among other things, some documents were transferred to the archive in 1964 by Salzgitter AG (today's signatures no. 29-39), others were copied from the Imperial War Museum in London in 1974 (today's signatures no. 40-41, 44). The Central State Archives of the GDR in Potsdam kept another 71 files of the Commissioner for the Four-Year Plan under the inventory signature 34.01, which begin today with the signature 101; this part contained almost 40 volumes of the Press Office in the Prussian State Ministry, which was also responsible for the Four-Year Plan, as well as seven files of the Research Centre for Defense Economics. The signature no. 177, which also contains documents of the press office, also originates from the dissolution of the so-called NS archive of the HA IX/11 of the Ministry for State Security of the GDR. Archival processing: After the unification of the two German states in 1990, the two parts of the tradition were brought together in the Federal Archives in Berlin under the inventory designation R 26 I, but without initially being subjected to a common system. In 2014, the indexing information from the 1960s was transferred to the database of the Federal Archives, the indexing was revised and a task-related structure was drawn up for the entire holdings. Characterisation of the contents: The few records of the headquarters of the Commissioner for the Four-Year Plan handed down in the Federal Archives contain only a few volumes of the Central Secretariat of Göring (mainly correspondence A-Z) and the office of the State Secretary Körner as well as various preliminary files on the tasks of the Four-Year Plan (files of the Commissioner of the Führer and Reich Chancellor for Economic Affairs Wilhelm Keppler). There are also some files on the supply of raw materials and on general (including foreign) economic issues, as well as the somewhat more extensive press office documents on the press and public relations work of the four-year plan authority.

History of the Inventor: The Department of the War Ministry, which grew out of the General Adjutant's Office in the 18th century, gained its own significance after 1850 and was elevated to the status of an immediate authority in 1883. It had to deal with all army matters subject to the king's authority of command as well as the appointment, promotion and dismissal of officers and their disciplinary, honorary and religious matters. The Chief of the Military Cabinet was also the lecturer General Adjutant and advised the monarch on all matters concerning the army. Inventory description: The military cabinet, which grew out of the General Adjutant's Office in the 18th century, initially formed a department of the War Ministry after the reorganization of 1808/09, but after 1850 it gained independent significance and was elevated to an immediate authority in 1883. It had to deal with all army matters subject to the king's authority of command as well as the appointment, promotion and dismissal of officers and their disciplinary, honorary and religious matters. The Chief of the Military Cabinet was also the lecturer General Adjutant and advised the monarch on all matters concerning the army. With the end of the monarchy in 1918, the military cabinet became a department of the Ministry of War as a "personnel office". Characterisation of the contents: Several volumes have been handed down on mobilization during the wars of 1866, 1870/71 and 1914/18, lists of names of recipients of orders and decorations, personal affairs of the emperor and some cabinet orders.

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.

Administrative history: The holdings of "Senate war files" consist mainly of the files that were created separately in the course of the war 1914-1918 next to the Senate registry (cf. 111-1 Senate) and most probably initially filed according to numerus currens. This is indicated by the old signatures, which consisted of the abbreviation K or Krg and a continuous Arabic numerical sequence. With the introduction of this new registry principle, which was intended to make the complex allocations to the complicatedly encrypted subjects of the old Senate registry superfluous, those responsible could not overlook the fact that the war would not end quickly. The choice of the numerus currens for the structure of the collection, although it represented the simplest method of filing, soon had to prove to be disastrous for the recourse to subject matters. This is probably also the reason why different files were created on the same subjects and why topics that were factually close to each other were filed far apart. It is no longer possible today to reconstruct how the registry was restructured in individual cases as a result of the war - and this meant above all that it was determined by the loss of the majority of the previous registrar's employees - due to the lack of tradition. After the end of the war and the expiry of the war-related measures, some of which lasted until the end of the 1920s, the Senate's war registry was enriched with individual registries of commissioners and commissioners. Because some of them had their own registries growing. Thus, for example, the files of the "Senate Commissioner for the Trust Commission for the Provision of Funds for the Tasks Arising from the War" as well as those of the "Central Commission for War Support" or the "Reich Commissioner at the Higher Committee for the Determination of War Damages" reached the old registry. All these registries or parts of registries were probably still united and structured in the Senate registry. The new structure was presumably based on models that can no longer be reconstructed at present. It placed upper groups with capital letters (A to Z - whereby one did not get along with the 25 characters and had to designate the last three groups as Z I, Z II and Z III) over groups with Roman numbers (I, II and III), if this appeared necessary or directly over subgroups with lower case letters (a to z - whereby one did not get along with the 25 alphabet characters also here and then extended with z1, z2, z3 and so on). A deeper structuring could then be done again with lower case letters, the next structuring step again with Arabic numerals, so that in the outermost case signatures of considerable length resulted ( e.g. B II b 121 z 4). Archival history: In this order the registry was handed over to the State Archives at the beginning of the 1930s in a volume of approx. 60 running metres and was kept here until August 1986 without re-drawing and cassation interventions. At this time, H.-P. Plaß, the student councillor temporarily seconded to the State Archives, was commissioned to redraw the holdings. He was told not to change the signatures in the inventory, since the war records had already been used and evaluated scientifically on various occasions. From him was registered up to signature B II b 633 a. In April 1989, the undersigned took care of the larger rest and completed the registration and cassation work by February 1990. In contrast to his predecessor, the undersigned has decided to collect a considerable part of the acts of war according to the following criteria. - files which exclusively dealt with the execution of decisions of the Bundesrat or other orders of the Zentralgewalt and at most documented the instructions for publication in the Gesetz- und Verordnungsblatt or Amtsblatt as an independent administrative act; - files which had no connection whatsoever with Hamburg or which did not include any formative political or administrative contribution from Hamburg; - files which arose for the Senate from all sorts of mailings, but which did not lead to any political or administrative activities; - individual case files, if they were only petitions and rejections due to lack of competence. Thus, attempts were made to document the specific Hamburg conditions, activities and special features. Since the auxiliary registrars at the Senate 1914-1918 could not know which subject matters would lead to actual document growth, they created numerous files, which in the end were occupied only with very few, in very many cases Hamburg not touching documents. On the other hand, other fact files simply expanded so much due to the amount of written material that even the creation of subfiles could not be dispensed with when new files were created, in order to subsequently achieve the necessary differentiation. The cassation from signature B II b 634 onwards concerned approx. 2/3 of the previous holdings. The total circumference was thus reduced from approx. 60 running metres to 36 running metres. The signatures were retained. Only at one point, in the files from the former registry of the Central Commission for War Support, there was a deviation from this. All files of the Central Commission were systematically included in Group C II d 11; they had their own two to four-unit registration numbers from capital letters A to M, Arabic numerals and possibly lower case letters and again Arabic numerals - e.g. B 1 g 2. This would have resulted in signatures of considerable length. Therefore a short signature C II d 11 - 1 ff. was used. A concordance at the end of the directory allows the old numbers to be found. The title formation in the war registry obviously took place quite predominantly after the first document to be filed. Only very few changes were made to titles, even if the focus of the content of the respective file changed as a result of the addition of documents. Only rarely did this necessitate the creation of a new file title; however, both H.-P. Plaß and the undersigned have ample knowledge of the possibility of adapting file titles to the content of the file by means of changes (at about 80
ller files). Since the files on the same or similar subjects reached very different locations not only in the original numerus currens procedure, but also in the newly created classification system, it was necessary from the outset to work with numerous references. These were noted on the files with the numerus currens signatures and were not adapted during the reworking into the new structure. References could therefore only be identified and verified via the provisional repertory, which contained both the original and the new numbers. H.-P. Plaß tried to take all references as references to the individual file titles. Since this led to a whole series of complicated reference signatures for almost every file title, the undersigned has reversed this procedure by replacing individual references with subject, name and place indices. This is probably the easiest way to find relatives. As a rule, the index terms were taken from the titles of the files, only in a few cases was an approximation carried out. (For example, the term "food" is always recorded as "food".) Signed July 1992. Lorenzen-Schmidt Description of the inventory: The inventory consists mainly of the files that were created separately from the Senate registry during the war of 1914-1918 and which reflect the civil needs of warfare in particular. After the end of the war and the expiry of the war-related measures, some of which extended until the end of the 1920s, the Senate's war registry was enriched with individual registries of commissioners and commissioners. Thus, for example, the files of the "Senate Commissioner for the Trust Commission for the Provision of Funds for the Tasks Arising from the War" as well as those of the "Central Commission for War Support" or the "Reich Commissioner at the Higher Committee for the Determination of War Damages" reached the old registry. All these registries or parts of registries were probably still united and structured in the Senate registry. In terms of content, the following main groups are to be named: A. The military readiness for war, B. The bourgeois readiness for war (therein dominating: b. Economic measures), C. The war welfare care, F. Measures for the implementation of the people's nutrition, X. The political conditions after the revolution and its reorganization, Z.I. The demobilization. In addition, material from almost all areas of Hamburg's supreme administrative activity during the war years is included. (LS)

1. about sermons on corpses: There have been sermons on corpses as eulogies or sermons in the church since the Middle Ages. There are already approaches to this in pre-Christian antiquity. The custom of writing them down and later printing them, however, did not emerge in Lutheran Protestantism until shortly after the Reformation. The Catholic Church opposed - above all the lavish - funeral orations to prohibitions. After all, there is also evidence of sermons on corpses for Zwinglians, Calvinists and Catholics, albeit to a lesser extent. Because of the financial expenditure corpse sermons were printed above all for wealthy aristocrats and citizens. The heyday of printed funeral sermons was the decades before the 30 year war and the turn from the 17th to the 18th century. Around the middle of the 18th century, the custom of printing sermons on corpses declined sharply. There are also sermons on corpses from the 20th century, but these are much simpler than specimens from the heyday. Depending on the time of origin, but also on the social status of the deceased, the sermons can be more or less lavish. They range from the simple printed sheet with a maximum of four pages to the large folio-format volume with 200 or more pages, decorated with several copper engravings, notes and many different mourning texts. Some funeral sermons are also divided into several volumes, e.g. the Epicedia or only certain Epicedia separately bound. Such sumptuous writings are, of course, only conceivable in the heyday of sermons on corpses and only for people from high social status. Sermons on corpses contain different components. The actual sermon on the dead, i.e. the sermon at the funeral, forms the core of Scripture. Often it is based on a specific biblical passage as a leitmotif which the deceased could determine for himself or which has a relation to the activity of the deceased. A scripture may contain several such sermons which may have been delivered at the funeral, funeral service or other funeral service. In comparison, sermons on corpses often contain a curriculum vitae of the deceased (referred to as "Personalia" or "curriculum vitae"), which was read out during the celebrations and cannot describe the person of the deceased too negatively for reasons of piety. The third component is Epicedia, the mourning poems of relatives, friends or - in the case of aristocrats - high-ranking servants. Elaborate copper engravings - quite a majority - can decorate a funeral sermon. Often the deceased is depicted with a portrait, sometimes also in an allegorical representation. With several copper engravings the funeral procession (= corpse procession) can be represented or the coffin in different views. Music is relatively rare. The lyrics of sung mourning songs can be found more often, notes of such songs or even other musical performances at mourning ceremonies are already a precious rarity (cf. the separate list in the appendix). The present collection comprises a total of 2098 funeral sermons. Without consideration of the duplicates there are 797 different pieces. They can be divided into three groups, into sermons on corpses of members of the House of Hohenlohe (188 without duplicates), into sermons on corpses of other aristocrats who were frequently either related, in-laws or neighbours (332), and into sermons on corpses of commoners (277). Among the latter group, servants and other employees of the various high-wage houses predominate. Also included are - albeit with a rather small proportion - other personal writings, such as poems on the occasion of a birthday, a wedding or an anniversary, "Leichenge poems" (identical with Epicedia) and also writings on the occasion of celebrations in Hohenlohe on the occasion of the death of the emperor, etc. The collection of sermons represents a selection of material from several Highlohic archives. The origin of the individual funeral sermons can usually no longer be determined. Naturally, the funeral sermons must be seen as a relevant source of sepulchral culture. They are also indispensable for genealogical and other research, not least because of the often included curriculum vitae. The contained genealogical information is absolutely reliable, even if the evaluations in a funeral sermon cannot be too negative. General expressions about piety, lifestyle and virtues of the deceased, on the other hand, are not to be taken too literally. Sermons on corpses are also valuable sources for the history of art, literature and music as well as for theology, and social and economic history is increasingly devoting itself to them. Because of the biographies of counts and princes of the House of Hohenlohe, their wives and children and because of the copper engraved portraits they are valuable sources on the history of the House of Hohenlohe. Servants and other servants of Highloh courts are also documented by them, as are friends, relatives and neighboring nobles. The materials about funeral ceremonies at Highloh courts, which contain some of the collected funeral sermons, touch on Highloh cultural history. The funeral sermons show the social circle that was involved in the funeral ceremonies in an exposed way.

Zur Bearbeitung des Bestandes: As part of a project of the Historical Commission that also included sermons on corpses of other archives and libraries, Dr. Elisabeth Zimmermann recorded the Neuenstein sermons for the first time between summer 1948 and summer 1949. The drawing was done according to the model of Stollberg's catalogue and was comparatively detailed. The result was a card index, which was incomplete at the beginning of the 70s (when the Hohenlohe Central Archive was taken over by the state). The stock had become considerably disordered. In the meantime, further Hohenlohische archives had been relocated to Neuenstein, whose sermons on corpses were also to be integrated into the collection. As a result, the size of the collection had increased considerably. In 1987 the employee Fritz Kempt began a new indexing under the guidance of Oberarchivrat Dr. Moegle-Hofacker, which took into account the entire material at hand. The title recordings were largely completed by Kempt until his retirement in December 1988. The final work including the editing of the find book was done by the undersigned in winter 1994/95. In the present find book the sermons of the corpses are described according to the following scheme. In the upper right corner, the relevant lift-out number for storage in the magazine is indicated. If this is marked with an asterisk (), several copies are available which are listed as duplicates at the end of the description. Alternatively, a duplicate can also be used. The excavation number can be divided into 6, 6 a and 6 b or 6.1 and 6.2. In such a number assignment there should normally be two funeral sermons bound together to form a volume. Bold highlighted, the excavation number is followed by the order number relevant for the arrangement in the finding aid book and then the name of the deceased person as the most important information, as this is used to classify the funeral sermon. As far as known, the "personal data" are added in a separate block: Birth name, Date and place of birth, date and place of death, funeral dates, marriage date, spouse, place of marriage and details of status, occupation, offices and memberships. The second block contains the data for the funeral sermon. This includes the presignature, all sermons for the corpse in the narrower sense (i.e. sermons for the funeral service, burial and other funeral ceremonies) with details of the author and, if applicable, the Bible quotation used. It also contains information on other components of the funeral sermon such as personalia (curriculum vitae), epicedia with information on the authors, copper engravings with picture descriptions, painters and engravers, notes, coats of arms and information on the print and scope of the script. At the end of this block there may be references to literature (autobiographies, lists of writings, etc.). The duplicates may be listed in a third block. The characterization of the persons involved in the creation of the funeral sermons, i.e. the authors of sermons or Epicedia or the artists, is usually taken from the funeral sermon and refers to the time at which it was written. The designations of their functions have sometimes been modernised, especially in Part I. In the second part, which comprises various regions of the former empire, the functional designations are often reproduced as in the sermon on the corpse (abbreviated), since the dissolution and modernization would have required too much special knowledge. The order of the sermons was according to the three groups: Hohenlohe, other aristocrats and commoners. Within these groups, the name alphabet is authoritative. The classification is determined by the name that the person used when he or she died. Married daughters from the Hohenlohe family are therefore no longer to be found under Hohenlohe. However, such references are taken into account in the index by means of references. For emperors and kings the first name is decisive for the classification, for other aristocrats the sex name. The order of the index cannot agree with the storage order for several reasons. Some funeral sermons are bound together with others to form thick volumes, the format of the funeral sermons changes too often. The collection shall also be kept open for further access. Therefore the storage in the magazine takes place according to numerus currens. The stock, which received the designation "GA 90 Leichenpredigten", comprises 2098 volumes in 17.5 linear metres. m.The files in the relevant stocks are to be consulted about funeral ceremonies in the house Hohenlohe beside the funeral sermons also, which can contain also funeral sermons or parts of it.Neuenstein, in December 1996Dr. Schiffer

History of the Inventor: The Engineer and Pioneer Corps included the Pioneer Battalions, each made up of four companies. They had to perform certain technical tasks, particularly in the construction of river crossings, blasting operations and field reinforcement. In the 1st World War, the mine launcher, gas combat, heavy current and flame launcher formations were set up within this framework. Inventory description: The Engineering and Pioneer Corps included the Pioneer Battalions, each consisting of four companies. They had to perform certain technical tasks, particularly in the construction of river crossings, blasting operations and field reinforcements. While the pioneers originally formed the mother weapon of the railway, intelligence, motor vehicle, airship and air force troops, in the First World War the mine-throwing, gas-fighting, high-voltage and flame-throwing formations were added to the pioneer troops. Characterisation of content: The present tradition consists primarily of war diaries (often only parts or copies) that have been preserved by chance, individual battle reports, troop orders, location maps or sketches. State of development: Findbuch Vorarchivische Ordnung: The files of the Prussian Corps of Engineers and Pioneers were largely destroyed in the fire at the Potsdam Army Archives in 1945. Only a few fragments of files have been handed down and archived. In 1994, some fragments of files from the military archives of the former GDR were added to the remaining files kept in the Freiburg Military Archives. The preserved files of the former Bavarian, Württemberg, Saxon and Baden troops can be found in the responsible main state archives in Munich, Stuttgart and Dresden as well as in the General State Archives in Karlsruhe.
