Scope and content

The core of the so-called New Archive created around 1850 is essentially the tradition of the princely central administration (domain chancellery, cabinet) from the middle of the 19th century onwards, including the older records still in the registry at that time. In addition, the Bronnbach Monastery archive, which had initially remained at its original location, was incorporated into the New Archive. In addition, private correspondence and private documents of individual members of the Princely House have been received on a large scale, as well as a large part of the document tradition of the Princely Archives, which was still unrecorded in the middle of the 19th century. From the princely local administration it seems that at first only selection search material was transferred to the New Archive. Central administrative offices outside the domain office, such as the various cash registers, also seem to have hardly handed over any files to the New Archive. On the other hand, archive records from the Old Archive have been incorporated to a considerable extent into the New Archive, either through direct levies or via the registry of the Domain Chancellery. The holdings of the New Archive therefore overlap considerably with the tradition of the so-called Old Archive, both in terms of time and content.<br /><br />Content and Evaluation<br /><br />The New Archive, unlike the Old Archive, which is structured in small parts, is composed of a few broadly defined mixed holdings which, with the exception of the St. Lit. A special position within the New Archive is occupied by the holdings of Lit. St., which is the only one with a systematic structure and also predominantly contains documents from the period before 1806. The content of the various literatures overlaps to a greater or lesser extent. Ultimately, they do not have a clear thematic profile; to the extent that such a profile existed when the respective portfolio was created, it was usually broken through in the subsequent period. In the period that followed, archive records were also taken from the New Archive; this applies above all to the documents initially included in Lit. A, which were summarised around 1900 in a selection (US). Today, new database-supported finding aids are available for most of the Neues Archiv's holdings, which also prove the provenance of the documents.
