History of the authorities: As a result of the territorial upheavals in the Napoleonic period, a total of 66 sovereign and 53 rank sovereign offices were created in Baden on the basis of the organisational edict of 26 October 1809. The number of district offices (since 1939: administrative districts) and upper offices was reduced in the course of the time by merging and abolition, so that 1945 in the today's administrative district Freiburg only 16 administrative districts (Donaueschingen, Emmendingen, Freiburg, Kehl, Konstanz, Lahr, Lörrach, Müllheim, Neustadt, Offenburg, Säckingen, Stockach, Überlingen, Villingen, Waldshut, Wolfach) and - since 1939 - two city districts (Freiburg, Konstanz) existed. Apart from the offices of the rank and rank abolished in 1849 at the latest, the district offices were purely state authorities. Only by the administrative district order of 24.6.1939 they received - de facto however only on paper - also tasks of a self-administration body. They were primarily responsible for general state administration, but were also responsible for the police and - until the establishment of their own court organisation (1857) - the judiciary, in particular the civil courts. As administrative authorities they were assigned to the Ministry of the Interior and subordinated to changing central authorities (district directorates, from 1832 district governments, from 1863 state commissioners); with regard to the judiciary, the court courts and the district directorates or district governments were superior to them. In the same year, the two land offices of Freiburg were united to form a single Land Office. The district offices of Endingen and St. Peter were dissolved and their places were assigned to the Landamt Freiburg and the Amt Breisach - in 1924 the Amt Breisach was abolished. In 1936 the district office of Staufen was dissolved, and its northern part was closed to Freiburg. Freiburg also received the Glottertalgemeinden, Heuweiler, Bischoffingen, Bötzingen, Eichstetten and Holzhausen, but in return lost Breitnau and St. Märgen to the district of Neustadt. Inventory history: Before the beginning of the registration work, the files of the Freiburg District Office were distributed among the following holdings:a) B 702/1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 and B 703/1, 2 B 774/1 as well as B 18/36b) E 22/1 and 2c) G 10/1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11 d) W 499.First, the stocks mentioned under a) and b) were combined to form stock B 702/1 (new). In a second step, all files of the provenance Bezirksamt/Landratsamt Freiburg with a term up to and including 1952 were taken from the holdings mentioned under c) and transferred to the existing holdings. The stocks G 10/4, 5, 6, 8 and 11 did not contain any such files, whereas the G 10/9 stock was completely absorbed into B 702/1. In justified exceptional cases, such as when the proportion of written material created after 1952 in a file was limited to a few documents, even files with a term beyond 1952 were included in B 702/1.Thirdly, all files of the provenance "Landratsamt Freiburg" from the provisional stock W 499, which contains documents from the stocks 129 to 228 of the General State Archives Karlsruhe, which reached the State Archives Freiburg within the scope of the mutual equalisation of stocks, were also incorporated. Under the pre-signature 1 you will find the last signature used in the State Archives Freiburg before the new indexing and under the pre-signature 2 the penultimate signature used in the State Archives Freiburg and the signature formerly used in the General State Archives Karlsruhe, respectively. The undersigned was responsible for supervising the work. The collection B 702/1 now includes the fascicles 1 - 5406 and measures 45 lfd.m.Freiburg, April 2008 Dr. Christof Strauss
