Preliminary remark on the retroconversion of the finding aids: At the time of the retroconversion two typewritten repertories were available:1) The files handed down by the administrative department of the Württemberg War Ministry were recorded in 1944 under the direction of Army Archives Director Dr. Hermann Pantlen. The title recordings of the finding aid book preserved from the Heeresarchiv Stuttgart have been transferred unchanged into EDP during the retroconversion. 2) The business diaries in inventory M 1/4 were recorded in 1975 by Dr. Joachim Fischer and Wilhelm Westenfelder. The foreword and foreword of the two find books are reproduced in the following.Stuttgart, July 2008Dr. Wolfgang Mährle 1. The Administrative Department - Files (foreword to the find book 1944): The files of Department B (Administrative Department) were taken over mainly with the remaining files of the Württ War Ministry. Subsequent additions are made:1923by Landesfinanzamt Stuttgart: Files of the former Intendantur XIII. army corps and Württ. war ministry22.11.1936by Heeresarchiv Potsdam: 22 issues Files of the Württ. war ministry (Remonteangelegenheiten)27.04.1937by Landesfinanzamt Stuttgart: 45 bundles of files of the Württ. war ministry (Verwaltungs-/Waffenabteilung and Intendantur XIII.., XIV Army Corps)The archive directory was compiled on 11.12.1931 by today's government inspector Beiermeister and confirmed by the then head of the Reichsarchiv branch, Oberarchivrat von Haldenwang.The repertorisation took place in the years 1942/43 by the then Heeresarchivrat Knoch with the aid of the employee Kohler; in the interest of uniformity, the work Knoch was revised by the undersigned at the end of 1943 and in the first half of 1944, again with the aid of the employee Kohler, and the person and subject index was established with the aid of the employee Landau.In the case of the latter work (establishment of the indices), it was disadvantageous that the files were already stored on a decentralised basis for reasons of air-raid protection, i.e. that the checks resulting from such work could no longer be carried out.The files are not complete. Organizational overviews and business divisions have not been removed, as they have already been compiled into one volume (Württ. War Ministry, Business Divisions) and were no longer present in the files.Heads of Administrative Department B (until 1899 Economics Department) were:Major General von Wundt (later War Minister)09.08.1871 - 23.03.1874Wirkl.

The Administrative Department - Business Diaries (preliminary remark to the 1975 Findbuch): The business diaries of Department A are not recorded in the repertory of the Heeresarchiv Stuttgart for holdings M 1/4 (War Ministry - Department A), which was completed in 1944. The necessary order and distortion of the 287 volumes (11.5 linear metres), to which the journals of the Corps veterinarian XIII Army Corps (cf. volumes 269 and 270) remain assigned, was therefore carried out in 1972 by the contract employee Westenfelder under the supervision of the Oberstaatsarchivrat Dr. Fischer.Stuttgart, in February 1975Fischer
