Division history: The 28th Infantry Division was set up on 01.07.1871 in the XIV Army Corps. At the beginning of the war, the division belonged to the General Command of the XIV Army Corps, analogous to the peace organization. It was responsible for the 55th and 56th Infantry Brigades, the 28th Field Artillery Brigade, the Hunter Regiment on Horse No. 5 and the 2nd and 3rd Company of Pioneer Battalion No. 14. From May 1919 the 28th Infantry Division formed the Resolution Staff 53.The infantry divisions were the lowest command authorities, which had a general staff. The commanding generals were: Lieutenant General Kurt von Kehler since the beginning of the war to 10.01.1915 Major General Franz von Trotta called Treyden11.01.1915 to 07.07.1916 Major General Hermann Heidborn08.07.1916 to 19.08.1916 Lieutenant General Felix Langer19.08.1916 to 18.02.1918 Major General Hans von Wolff19.02.1918 (Illness)Major General Kurt Prinz von Buchau20.02.1918 to 29.05.1918 Major General Gustav Böhm 31.05.1918 to 12.06.1918 Major General Emil Hell13.06.1918 to 06.09.1918 Major General Rudolf from the East07.09.1918 until the demobilisation.In the Free State of Baden the new formation of the Baden People's Army began on 13 January 1919 with the acceptance of volunteers. As a reaction to the so-called "Spartacus Uprising" in February 1919, the Reich and Badische Volksregierung had further voluntary associations set up at all units in addition to the existing voluntary formations. Inventory history: After the end of the war, the files remained at the processing office of the Leib-Grenadier-Regiment 109. From January 1920, the establishment of an archive of the XIV Army Corps began, in which the archives of the processing offices were brought together. In autumn 1920 the corps archive moved to the infantry barracks in Heilbronn. From January 1921, the Corps Archives entered the portfolio of the Reich Ministry of the Interior under the name Aktenverwaltung XIV, before being incorporated into the Reichsarchiv in Potsdam as the Heilbronn archive branch on April 1, 1921. As a result of the merger of the Heilbronn and Stuttgart branches of the Reich Archives, the holdings were transferred to Stuttgart in 1924. The Württembergische Archivdirektion, which took over the administration of the holdings of the Army Archives Stuttgart after the end of the Second World War, handed over the XIV Army Corps to the General State Archive Karlsruhe in the years 1947 to 1949. A very detailed history of the holdings is contained in the foreword of the Deputy General Command of the XIV Army Corps (holdings 456 F 8). 381 fascicles with a circumference of 11.50 linear metres are included in the holdings.
