        Part of City Archive Worms (Archivtektonik)

        Description of the holdings: Abt. 189 Heylsches Landgut Pfauenmoos Size: 77 AK and one running metre oversized formats (incl. 189_F = 307 VE) = 7.5 running metres Duration: 1857 - 2007 1st prehistory and takeover of the documents in May 2012 After the death of Ludwig C. v. Heyl zu Herrnsheim (1920-2010), who had handed over extensive private and company documents to the archive since 1997, which were intensively recorded in the city archives (Abt. 185), his two sons Dr. Ludwig v. Heyl (Landgut Nonnenhof, Bobenheim-Roxheim south of Worms) and Dr. Johannes v. Heyl (Freidorf/Kanton Thurgau, CH) approached the City Archives with the question of whether a takeover of further supplementary family documents that were already stored and indexed (cf. Dept. 186) in the archives would be possible. These were located on the castle or country estate Pfauenmoos (canton St. Gallen, municipality Berg SG, Switzerland) acquired by the family in 1848/49, since 1923 a foundation according to Swiss law. Mainly due to the close personal ties of Ludwig C. v. Heyl ('Lu') to Pfauenmoos, in which he had lived regularly and for a longer period of time almost to the end of his life together with his wife Gisela (1923-2011, née Greiser, married since 1945), there were numerous private and family papers there which would await inspection and development. The project was also agreed with Ludwig v. Heyl's younger brother Gebhard v. Heyl (born 1930, resident in Munich). A takeover of family papers was also envisaged in view of the incipient planning for renovation work on the property. In view of the expected significance of the family documents for the history of the city and its closely connected von Heyl family, and against the background of the close and trusting cooperation with their relatives over many years, the archive gladly took up this suggestion and agreed in advance with the art historian and publisher Dr. Ferdinand Werner, who in 2010 as co-editor of the extensive anthology on the family and its buildings had already dealt with Pfauenmoos as an outstanding cultural monument. After the necessary organisational clarifications in 2011/12, the archive manager Dr. Gerold Bönnen, the archive employee Margit Rinker-Olbrisch (Dipl.-Arch. FH) and the aforementioned Dr. Ferdinand Werner travelled to Switzerland from 23-25 May 2012. On-site support was provided by Dr. Johannes v. Heyl, with whom all questions that arose were discussed before and after the event. The archives were mostly located in a climatically suitable room on the 2nd floor, the condition and important working steps were documented photographically. Close cooperation with the Cantonal Archives in St. Gallen was important to the City Archives, as the archives relating to the Foundation and the site itself were of course to remain on site. Through this collegial cooperation (discussion on site with Mrs. Regula Zürcher, who is responsible for private records) and due to the willingness of the family and the family foundation, it was possible to clarify that the parts of the archive that directly concern the property and the house or the family foundation should be deposited in the cantonal archives and recorded there, an exchange of the finding aids was agreed. The portion earmarked for the cantonal archives (approx. 13 running metres) comprises correspondence from the administration of the foundation, the Pfauenmoos Castle Association, estate management (from approx. 1890) and forestry, official books (cash books, accounting, bank documents, etc.), files, contracts relating to acquisition, leasing and construction matters, inventories (also at the time of the transfer of ownership in 1848/49) as well as a measuring certificate (1849). There are also some documents from Lederhandels-AG (Switzerland). The share taken over from the municipal archives of Worms and transferred to Worms on 25.5.2012 had approximately the same extent (approx. 12-13 running metres). For some of the documents, it was agreed that they would be digitised and the originals returned to the family (Chronicle of Pfauenmoos, collection of plans, photographs). Dr. Werner's stay on site was also used by Dr. Werner for a comprehensive photographic documentation of the highly interesting art-historical property with many references to Worms. A monograph on the history of the listed building is currently being planned. Following the trip, Dr. Werner and Claus Reisinger (Wernersche Verlagsgesellschaft) voluntarily documented approx. 30 family photographs from Pfauenmoos, which were hung there and have since been returned, in high quality for the photo department of the city archive (80 illustrations = 1.93 GB). 2. indexing and special features The indexing of the holdings (new archive department 189) was carried out between June 2012 and January 2013 by the archive manager with the help of a student trainee. A donation contract with the city was already concluded with Dr. Johannes v. Heyl in August 2012. A cassation took place only in very small extent; only 18 files from the very extensive correspondence series of Ludwig v. Heyl in the years 1977 to 2000 (approx. 2 running meters): Congratulations 1986-90, Christmas cards and greetings 1975-1981, 1991, 1994, 1998; General Corresp. 1975-77; 60th Birthday 1980; General Correspondence Switzerland and International 1990-99) were not accepted due to the redundancy of the documents. Special arrangements were made for the Pfauenmoos Chronicle (Hauschronik, No. 001), which was digitised in the City Archives and returned to Switzerland, the plans returning after its partial digitisation (Nov. 2012, Digitisation Centre City Archives Mannheim) and some of the older photographs. For reasons of conservation, the oldest framed photos dating back to 1845 (Daguerro type!) remain in the collection, while the archive takes care of the professional treatment and guarantees, among other things, optimal air conditioning. As mentioned, the vast majority of framed hanging older family photos have been digitized and have already returned to Pfauenmoos in their original form. To supplement the collection, Dr. Werner has made available to the archive digitally drafts of the architect Bluntschli's plans for the conversion of Pfauenmoos from the period around 1880/90, which he had obtained from the ETH Zurich archives. 3. content emphases The holdings represent such a pleasing extension of the other Heyl estates because there are many cross-references to other parts of the family records. Ludwig v. Heyl jun. (1920-2010) in particular had stored a large amount of personal papers (e.g. correspondence from the 1930s until his death, also older family photos including daguerrotypes back to 1845) at his place of residence in Switzerland, which can now be used together with the documents already recorded (Dept. 185, 186, 1801/1). The links with other family archive holdings are close. The classification tries to take into account the different components. The focus is on the correspondence between the two owners Ludwig v. Heyl (senior, 1886-1962) and above all his son Ludwig v. Heyl (jun., 'Lu') from the period between the 1920s and shortly after 2000. The content of the collection reflects numerous family and company aspects of the von Heyl family, as Pfauenmoo contained documents of great thematic diversity, an illustration of which is the classification developed. According to Ludwig v. Heyls (sen., 1886-1962), correspondence between the 1920s and his death, including correspondence with Swiss personalities such as the temporary Federal President and Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Dr. Thomas Holenstein, is particularly noteworthy. In addition, there are documents on the charitable-ecclesiastical Swiss aid activated for Worms after 1946 (e.g. corr. with Rev. Buff) as well as internal family and company-related correspondence. The extensive correspondence of his son Ludwig v. Heyl (jun, 1920-2010), including the correspondence from the war years, family correspondence, plant-related letters (Heyl-Liebenau company until its liquidation in 1974) and materials, documents on his strong ties with the Bayreuth Festival after 1951 and his social activities in associations such as Rotary Clubs, lobbies of the leather industry, traditional associations (Militaria), etc. In all these fields, there is close interaction with the documents already existing in Dept. 185, which is why both holdings should be used in parallel when dealing with these topics. In addition there are older documents about Pfauenmoos from the time since ca. 1880, a collection of plans, photos and mixed material as well as personal documents of Gisela von Heyl, above all family correspondence from the time between ca. 1970 and 2000 (closed for use, see below). The photographs were recorded in a separate sub-collection 189_F comprising 36 units of description. Among these, in addition to the family pictures dating back to 1845, slide series from the 1970s on the demolition of the Majorshof and the Liebenau work should also be highlighted. 4. use and legal questions Notwithstanding the fact that the documents became the property of the City of Worms after the conclusion of the donation contract, blocking periods for use were set for a good 20 units of registration, as private and personal interests of Ludwig v. Heyls and his wife Gisela are particularly affected there. Apart from this, there are no restrictions on use. 5 Literature (on the building) - Ferdinand Werner, Von Wohnhäusern, Landsitzen und Villen, in: The Worms Industrial Family from Heyl.

        Family archive of Schiber
        Fonds · 1518-1981
        Part of State Archives Munich (Archivtektonik)

        The archive of the von Schiber family from Munich: "It was a dear time, the good old time before anno 14. In Bavaria even cooked. The beer was still dark, the people warned typically; the lads dashing, the dirndls decent and the dignitaries a bit distinguished and a bit casual. There was still a lot in order back then". This is how Georg Lohmeier characterizes his Success series "Königlich bayerisches Amtsgericht" the Prinzregentenzeit, historically, the time of the bourgeoisie. Today the beer is no longer dark and many other things have changed a lot. Thus the last relics of this time gradually disappear, the time of the Bildungsbürgertum with its pronounced status consciousness from the traditional Munich, which in retrospect turned out to be an extraordinary stroke of luck, when in the summer of 2013 Wolfgang von Schiber was in the State Archives Munich asked about the possibility of archiving his family archive, that he wanted his father's life's work to be in good and professional hands. Already the first very rough sighting of the wooden crates made especially for the archiving of the documents let assume, that this is a very extraordinary, with much love and expertise invested family archive of an educated citizen from the 19th century. and the beginning of the 20th century. To anticipate: the first impression was surpassed by far after a more intensive inspection and development. After the archive had been transferred to the State Archives in Munich, it was possible to begin the indexing of the holdings in the premises there. In the case of such cataloguing activities, an attempt is first made to reconstruct a pre-archival order, which promises a first clue for a meaningful thematic structure of the documents. In the case of the Schiber´schen archive, this was quite simple, since a numbering was attached to the wooden boxes. The very first files brought to light almost unbelievable things: Files on the tectonics of the archive, on the classification according to family history topics, on the storage of the archive in wooden boxes and finally the number books. In these books were all over 25 books handed down in the family archive.000 documents with consecutive numbers were entered and the note was also added, under which case reference the letters had been filed. The file numbers themselves also had their own structure, mainly according to genealogical aspects. In addition, there is also an archive usage order and an order scheme graded according to colour characteristics. The creator of this comprehensive order was Wilhelm von Schiber (1889-1963), the father of the donor. Wilhelm, a native of Munich, graduated from the Theresiengymnasium in Munich and then studied in Heidelberg, Munich, Kiel and Erlangen, and was subsequently an active combatant from 1914-1918. From this time approx. 1000 field letters from and to him; in addition he kept a war diary, which the passionate draughtsman occasionally enriched with sketches. But that's not all: to the war diary there are still four plant volumes in which Wilhelm von Schiber collected everything that seemed important to him: Postcards to the places of action, photographs of the troops, orders for action, tickets, emergency money, etc. After his demobilization he found a job as a government councillor at the Bavarian Insurance Chamber. After his marriage to Margarete Fischer in 1934 and the outbreak of war in 1939, he was drafted again and came as local commander of the local commander's office I/635 to the north of France. After the end of the war and an internment of almost one year he took after some time and After a long period of quarrelling with the military government, he resumed his work at the Bavarian Insurance Chamber. Throughout his life Wilhelm von Schiber was anxious to achieve this, to organize his family archive and supplement it with documents, that were transferred to him by relatives or that he actively "took over". He maintained an extensive correspondence with all his relatives, and other family members, especially on genealogical and genealogical questions. First and foremost, however, he endeavoured to create the most extensive genealogical tables and genealogical series for his ancestors, spending a lot of money commissioned by genealogists, which provided him with corresponding source excerpts and strain series, who drew them from archives of the most diverse provenance. He himself could not always devote himself to this task with the intensity he hoped for, for he came to it, as he ironically writes to the Amberg State Archives, on the always planned visit of two world wars in between. In this way numerous family files with excerpts from church books, marriage records, personal files, photographs, original letters were created, completely worked out stem rows, coat of arms drawings, Seal imprints, but also hair curls, everything arranged according to the scheme worked out by him. In addition to this activity, he also devoted himself to his literary inclinations, so he wrote - mostly under the pseudonym "Wilhelm Burkhardsberg", the place of origin of the first tangible ancestors - numerous genealogical and family history works, partly also of extensive nature, like "Die Ahnen des Wilhelm von Schiber" (1932), the "Münz- und Schaumünzkunde für Familienforscher" (1937), the story "Der von Steinsdorf" (1930), "The Ernst of Hagsdorf, the Ernst from Vohburg and their relatives" (1931), "The descendants of Johann Baptist Simon Ritter von Schiber from the house Burkhardsberg" (1957) and not to forget his "preparatory work for the family chronicle" (1911-1917). In addition, he took part in numerous prize competitions and wrote the poetry cycles "Rote Blätter" (Red Leaves), "Nature and eroticism" and "Revolution cycle" as well as numerous other poems and short stories not summarized in cycles, who usually lie dormant unpublished in his family archive. Wilhelm von Schiber probably had his passion for the family and also his level of education; he was fluent in English, French and Latin, in which he even wrote his diaries in his youth, inherited from his father, Franz Xaver von Schiber (1834-1920). "Xavier" or "Boraxl," as his nicknames were, was also a lawyer and could have made a great career in the diplomatic service due to his excellent grades, but remained in the Bavarian administrative service at the express request of his father. From April 1868 he was the youngest Bavarian district official in parish churches, subsequently in Fürth, Wasserburg and Berchtesgaden from 1878-1888 Bezirksamtmann in Lindau. He was reluctant to leave his beloved Lindau for Munich, but his troubled health made a retreat into private life seem advisable. He had to go to the neurology clinic.wittelsbach" in Munich and devoted himself entirely to his self-chosen tasks, primarily the publication of an Italian dictionary. The rejection of the Lexi-kon by the publishers again brought him one of his severe personal disappointments. In addition, the guitar and piano played, so that in his estate there are a number of notes and songs especially for the guitar. In addition, the family archive contains his extensive diary series, numerous letters and photographs as well as a collection of business cards. He was married to his base, Sophie Maillinger (1865-1951), who came from Landau i.d. Pfalz. After the families moved to Munich in 1877, she belonged to the Barlow family's closest circle of friends, later Brown House). Here she also met Franz von Schiber, whom she married in 1888. Via Sophie von Schiber, a large part of the estate concerning the Maillinger family also came to the family archive. For the family archives, the The parents of Franz von Schiber are Gustav Achilles von Schiber and his wife Caroline Baumüller. Gustav Achilles Schiber, called "Gustl" was born in 1812 in Amberg. His father, Johann Baptist Simon Ritter von Schiber, was at that time a legal adviser at the Appellate Court in Amberg, But after his appointment the family moved to Munich in 1819, where Gustl attended the cadet school. In 1831 he became Junker in the Infantry Body Regiment and married Karoline Baumüller in 1833 in Munich's Dom. Since Gustav was an extremely talented draughtsman and gifted hobbyist, he made the traditional sewing kit temple for his bride's wedding. His skills in technical drawing were very much in line with his professional career, he was transferred to the Topographic Bureau in 1842, which at that time was housed exactly where its written and graphic legacy is once again kept today: at the Munich State Archives, the former War Department. After further career jumps to captain and major he left the association in 1863. In the private sphere Gustav, Caroline and "Xavier" were very fond of travelling, spent much time at the Ramsdorf headquarters in Lower Bavaria, which belonged to their friend Ludwig Freiherr von Verger, which is immortalized several times by Gustav in his numerous sketchbooks as well as in the Chiemsee region. In addition, there are several oil paintings from his brush in the family property. Of course, Wilhelm von Schiber had photographic reproductions made for his family archive. Following his sociability, he was a founding member of the Harbni Order (1850), a society against the animal seriousness to which a number of well-known Munich personalities belonged, e.g.B. Max von Pettenkofer. There is also a rich tradition of this in the family archive. He was also the first in the family, who, on the basis of his personal acquaintance with Franz Xaver. Gabelsberger and a penchant for the shorthand this also used, as later above all the archive founder Wilhelm von Schiber did this excessively. After her wedding, his wife Caroline Baumüller confined herself to raising children and doing the housework. She enriched the family archive with her friendship album, which shows not only the beautiful miniatures and aphorisms but also their extensive circle of friends and family. Father of Achilles and progenitor of the present line of Schiber was Johann Baptist Simon von Schiber (1770-1836) from Burkhardsberg in the Oberfalz (Lkr. Schwandorf). After studying jurisprudence and obtaining his doctorate in Ingolstadt, he initially worked as a land commissioner in Munich, from 1804 State Directorate Council to Amberg. Since 1808 he was crown fiscal at the Appellation Court in Amberg and in 1819 he was promoted to the General Fiscal Council in Munich, in 1826 to crown attorney at the K. State Ministry of Finance. Johann Baptist von Schiber died in Munich in 1836. Some of his originals have also been preserved in the family archives, especially an exchange of letters from the end of the 18th century. It deserves to be mentioned here. In addition, numerous archival documents from the State Archives Amberg, Munich State Archives and the Bavarian Main State Archives z.T. literally copied or excerpted and are attached to the personal file of Johann Baptist von Schibers. In addition to the numerous "ego-documents", such as diaries and letters, which have been described as such in current research, the friendship albums and sketchbooks a more than extensive photo library forms a crowning conclusion of the family archive. Photographs of all members of the family and all branches of the family are gathered here in two larger cartotheques. The oldest photographs certainly date back to the middle of the 19th century. So this is not only a highly remarkable source in terms of family history, but also in terms of technical history, which documents the influence of technology on the status and self-confidence of the educated bourgeoisie. That there is also a name, object and place index for the entire archive, who refers back to the number books, was no longer too surprised by the meticulousness of the archive founder. The "Schiber Family Archive" invites cultural historians, genealogists and those interested in cultural history, to trace the great time of the bourgeoisie but also its decline on the basis of its own sources. It is truly an invaluable treasure trove. Munich, August 2016 Dr. Christoph Bachmann
