Scope and content

Preliminary remark: The holdings 465 d contain documents of the Baden-Alsatian NSDAP and its divisions, which had been confiscated by American troops in 1945, transported to America and registered and filmed there at the Alexandria/Virginia collection point. Little by little, these files came back. The Federal Archives in Koblenz took over the distribution role (as with the other federal states) for this purpose and since 1963 had delivered the Baden provenances in larger or smaller consignments to the General State Archives. Since 1971, this route has also been used to bring isolated material from the American Document Center in Berlin to Karlsruhe; these were mainly SA files, which, unlike the Alexandria holdings, had neither been filmed nor registered. A small part of the archival records received could be integrated into the existing holdings of the General State Archives (such as the Ministry of the Interior, the Oberfinanzpräsidium, etc.). The files of the "Außenhandelsstelle für Baden und Westmark" (Mannheim) (Foreign Trade Office for Baden and Westmark) today form the holdings 501 as a deposit of the Federal Archives. From the very beginning, regional provenances of southern Baden had been delivered to the branch of the General State Archives in Freiburb, today's State Archives of Freiburg. At first, it was impossible to produce a clear repertory of the core holdings of the archival records (465 d), as new deliveries from the Federal Archives were constantly coming in; so a continuous index had to be made do with (produced in 1970 and supplemented ever since). The provisional conclusion of this process in 1974 enabled a complete re-drawing and systematic order. Although preserved to very different extents, this order is based on the provenances of the individual party offices. Their order is based on the "Rang- und Organisationsliste der NSDAP" (Stuttgart, 2nd edition, 1947) and the "Organisationsbuch der NSDAP", edited by the Reichsorganisationsletter der NSDAP (Munich, 2nd edition, 1937). The latter is also taken from the latter the division of departments within a party office, as far as a more precise subdivision at all appeared sinnvolì. Apart from the three Gauämtern (training, NSV, local politics), these provenances were only marginally preserved anyway; therefore the higher and lower instances - i.e. the Reich or district level - which only occur fragmentarily, were not taken into account in the structure and were objectively assigned to the corresponding Gauämtern. The separate associations, which were either affiliated to a Gauamt or disciplinary directly subordinated to the Gauleiter (like the "Deutsche Arbeitsfront" and "Kraft durch Freude", Winterhilfswerk, Reichsbund Deutscher Schwestern etc.), were classified between the Gauämter. 3 working students under the guidance of Messrs. K. Krimm and Dr. H. Schadek redrawed the files in summer 1974; the files were numbered and repackaged according to the new system. Since then, the holdings have been supplemented by further small deliveries from the Federal Archives. NSDAP conveniences of the Gauebene and lower levels are also to be found in the 465 c population group. The allocation of the preserved NSDAP files to the former GLA holdings is partly due to coincidences in the history of tradition. For example, the files of the Main Personnel Office are divided into the stocks 465 c and 465 d.Karlsruhe 1974/1988/2016 K. Krimm, B. Vogler, M. Stingl Conversion: The indexing data of the 1980s were converted to the available finding aid by Alexander Hoffmann in 2015 and processed into an online finding aid. Subsequently, the data found were edited with the aim of making the personnel files of the political directors of the Main Personnel Office, which had previously only been recorded in summary form, and the requests for information, which had formed into collective files, searchable at the individual level. The entire editorial office was with the undersigned.Karlsruhe, February 2016Dr. Martin Stingl Literature reference: Wilhelm Rohr: Mikroverfilmung und Verzeichnung deutscher Akten in Alexandria, USA, in: Der Archivar 19, 1966, Sp. 251-259.
