Administrative history: Two years after the foundation of the Hamburg University in 1921, the university authority was established. She supervised the University, Adult Education Centre, Technical Lectures, General Lectures and Scientific Institutions. In 1933, the Higher Education Authority was merged with the State Education Authority to form the State Education Authority, which consisted of two departments: General Administration and Education, and Higher Education. The supervision of the Kunsthalle, the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe, the Hansische Hochschule für bildende Künste and the Volkshochschule was transferred to the Authority for Church and Art Affairs in 1934. Both authorities were subject to the newly formed Cultural Affairs Administration. In 1936 the State Education Authority and the Authority for Church and Art Affairs were merged to form the Culture and School Authority, which thus took over the tasks of the Administration for Cultural Affairs. In 1938, the higher education system and parts of the school system were formed into the school and higher education department of the state administration and the other tasks were transferred to the municipal administration. In 1945 the school administration was established, in 1947 the school authority with the following structure was founded: General Department, University Department, School Department. In 1971, the University Office was created in the Authority for Science and the Arts, which since 1978 has been called the Authority for Science and Research. Archival history: The registry of the 1st section of the secondary school authority forms the order 361-5 I. First it consisted of the two main groups General and Special Files concerning the scientific institutions, later special registries for lectures, for exhibition and congress matters and for general administration were created. These were completed in 1914/15; a new central registry was created, the files of which are in order 361-5 II. This is divided into general administration, finances, buildings, personal data, teaching and scientific tasks. In 1952, a registry cut was made, introducing decimal classification. These files form the still growing Best. 361-5 III. The retroconversion of the data took place in 2008-2011.

Administrative history: In connection with the separation of state and church, a state school system with general compulsory schooling was created in Hamburg relatively late. The basis was the "Law on Education" of 11. 11. 1870. In 1863 the Interim High School Authority was established, which replaced the Scholarchate and from 1871 was called the High School Authority. It was divided into four sections: 1. section for scientific institutions, 2. section for higher education and from 1874 also for private education, 3. section for elementary education including teacher seminars, 4. section for rural education (until 1874 for private education), which was dissolved around 1920; only individual files were continued until 1938. From 1865 to 1914 the Oberschulbehörde was also responsible for the trade school system, which was taken over in 1914 by the Behörde für das Gewerbe und Fortbildungsschulwesen and in 1922 by the Berufsschulbehörde. In 1921, the 1st Section was spun off and integrated into the newly founded higher education authority. In 1927, in the course of an administrative reform, the main registry was merged with the administrative registries. In 1931, the Oberschulbehörde and the Berufsschulbehörde were united to form the Landesschulbehörde, which from 01.06.1933, together with the Hochschulbehörde, formed the Landesunterrichtsbehörde, which consisted of the two departments General Administration and Education and Higher Education. On 24.09.1936, the State Teaching Authority and the Authority for Church and Art Affairs were merged to form the Culture and School Authority, which thus took over the tasks of the Administration for Cultural Affairs. On 01.04.1938, the higher education system and parts of the school system were formed into the 4th (school and university) department of the state administration and the other tasks were transferred to the municipal administration. In 1945 the school administration was established, in 1947 the school authority was founded with the three departments 1. general department, 2. university department, 3. school department. From 01.01.1971 to 29.02.1980 the school administration belonged to the authority for school, youth and vocational training, from 01.03.1980 to 28.02.1989 to the authority for school and vocational training and since 01.03.1989 to the authority for school, youth and vocational training.
