Inventory description: With the decree of the Reich President of 21 March 1919, the Admiralty, which was subordinate to the Reich Minister of Defence, was established as the top authority of the Navy. Since 1 October 1919, the Chief of the Admiralty stood on an equal footing with the Chief of the Army Command. It was renamed Marineleitung (ML) on 15 September 1920 and Oberkommando der Kriegsmarine (OKM) on 1 June 1935. At his head was the commander-in-chief of the Kriegsmarine (ObdM). Characterisation of the contents: From the hand files of the commander-in-chief of the Kriegsmarine, only those of the Grand Admiral Erich Raeder on leadership, personnel and shipbuilding issues have been fragmentarily archived in the Federal Archives. In addition, organisational documents, orders, operational files, documents on mobilization and attaché matters as well as on the Spanish Civil War have been handed down. A copy of the war diary from August 1939 to August 1944 has been preserved from the General of the Luftwaffe at the ObdM. Especially for the period immediately after the First World War, there are also documents on the handling of the Reichsmarineamt, documents on the armistice, files on claims for damages from other countries, prisoner of war and internment matters, and military political reports on internal unrest (November Revolution, Kapp Putsch).
