Inventory description: Dept. 180/1 Heylsche Lederwerke Liebenau Scope: 260 archive boxes and 7 linear metres of books/standing (= 1104 units of registration = 40 linear metres) Duration: 1879 - 1975 Acquisition, history of the inventory Dept. 180/1 comprises the most complete company archive within the archive holdings of the Worms municipal archive. It represents the development of the Worms leather industry, especially in the period from about 1922 to the end of production after its discontinuation at the factory in Worms-Neuhausen in 1974. There are no losses during the war, cassations of the material, of which nothing is known in detail, were obviously limited. After the end of production in the Liebenau plant (Neuhausen, area Kurfürstenstraße, today the workshops and administration of Lebenshilfe Worms are located there), the inventory, initially operating as Abt. 169 (until its renaming in 1996), was taken over by the Worms municipal archives in 1974 in consultation with Mr Ludwig Frhr. v. Heyl, born in 1920. Until 2008, it was stored in a standing position (mainly file folders, cf. fig.) in the Adenauerring office building, Oberer Keller, with a circumference of 49 linear metres. When the files were selected for submission to the archives, a considerable part of the documents relating to the work (which in turn were mixed with Heyl's family archives) was separated from the parts handed over to the archives; this part was transferred to the municipal archives in 1997 as Dept. 185. The latter, a very rich and extensive collection, has been listed since 2007 and contains both company and private documents of the von Heyl family. It is essential to use the inventory to supplement the source material available here (cf. in future the preface to the finding aid book). The archive holdings of Dept. 180/1 did not have a clear internal structure at the time of its transfer and were first opened up or provisionally in 1993/94 by the student Mr Burkhard Herd in preparation for his diploma thesis on the leather industry, written at the University of Mannheim in 1994, from 1933 to 1945 (using Heyl-Liebenau as an example). Herd numbered the folders and staplers (approx. 650 units) and entered them (without running times and closer registration according to the usually available back titles) into an alphabetical list of topics, which was able to convey a very compressed first impression of the material with twelve pages. Herd's subsequent work (masch. 144 p.) includes a partial evaluation of questions of Nazi economic history using the example of the leather industry. In this form the stock was always to be used only very limitedly. In 1993, Volker Brecher last evaluated the documents for his study on working conditions in the leather industry during the Second World War as well as for the question of the use of forced labourers. In 2007, Christoph Hartmann presented an analysis of selected aspects of company development in the 1920s. Apart from that, the value of the rich source material for the economic history of Worms and the entire development of the leather industry has remained unused to this day, even nationwide, due to the fact that it has not been developed. From December 2007 to the end of February 2009, the entire holdings were completely listed by the signatory and entered into 'Augias'. In the process, a classification was developed which attempts to take into account the essential overdelivery characteristics and structures of the material. The material was successively brought to the Raschi House and is mainly stored here. The classification reaches its limits where (how often) the documents mix family-private affairs with company matters, where foreign business and domestic activities are intertwined (this applies to the entire field of correspondence) and the like. There have been relatively clear distinctions in the area of personnel and the activities of the company director in committees, chambers and associations since 1942 and 1949, respectively. Main focus and significance About half of the documents are divided between the time before and after 1945; there were probably no war losses. The value of the stock for economic historical research is to be estimated very highly. The main focus in terms of time was between 1922/23 (independence of the company) and 1962 (death of Ludwig C. v. Heyl sen.) or the end of production in 1974. At the end of the 60s the factory still employed about 400 people. Heyl'schen Lederwerke Liebenau in Neuhausen was taken over in 1901 by Cornelius Wilhelm v. Heyl through the acquisition of the shares and integrated into Heyl'sche Gesamtunternehmen. The goatskin factory, which has existed since the end of the 19th century (formerly Schlösser

History of the Inventory Designer: 1.2.1939 Appointment of the "General Aircraft Master", subordinate to the Secretary of State for Aviation and Inspector General of the Air Force, who was in charge of the Technical Office for the Development, Testing and Procurement of Air Force Equipment established on 17.7.1933, as well as the Supply Office in existence since 1.8.1936. At the same time, the "Amtsgruppe Industrie-Plan und Wirtschaft" was established, which from June 1939 was called the "Amtsgruppe Technische Wirtschaft und Haushalt" and from 1941 the "Industriewirtschaftsamt". In 1940/41 a planning office was created at the Generalflugmeister and on 1.3.1944 a fighter staff to increase the production of fighter planes. The Jägestab was under both the State Secretary for Aviation and the Reich Minister for Armaments and War Production, who assumed full responsibility for air force production in 1944. The office of the General Flight Attendant was dissolved on 29.7.1944. The responsibility for testing, developing and taking over the device remained with the Luftwaffe and was assumed by the Chief of Technical Air Defence (ChefTLR). In addition, the Industrial Office, now the "Economic Office", remained in existence. On 15 April 1943, the tasks of the Supply Office had already been transferred to the Chief of the Supply Department, who was subordinate to the General Aircraft Master, who described the inventory: On 17 July 1933, the Flight Technology Department of the General Aircraft Office was made independent as the Technical Office. He was responsible for the development, testing and procurement of the air force equipment. On 1 February 1939 it was subordinated to the newly appointed General Airworthiness Inspector (GL), who was subordinate to the State Secretary of Aviation and General Inspector of the Air Force, and also to the Supply Office, which had existed since 1 August 1936 and whose duties were transferred on 15 April 1943 to the Chief of Supply to the General Quartermaster. At the same time, in 1939, the Industry and Economy Section was set up under GL to carry out development and procurement contracts, to monitor prices, to set delivery conditions and to broker loans. From June 1939 it was called Amtsgruppe Technische Wirtschaft und Haushalt, from 1941 Industriewirtschaftsamt. In 1940/41 a planning office was created at GL and a fighter baton was set up on 1 March 1944 to increase the production of fighter planes. The latter was subordinate both to the Secretary of State for Aviation and to the Reich Minister for Armament and War Production, who finally assumed full responsibility for the production of the Luftwaffe, so that the office of the General Aircraft Master was dissolved on 29 July 1944, while the Inspector General of the Luftwaffe continued to exist as an independent office. Responsibility for testing, developing and taking over the device was transferred to the Chief of Technical Air Defence (ChefTLR). Characterisation of the contents: Only a few documents have survived from the staff of the General Aircraft Master and the Chief Technical Air Defence (ChefTLR). The war diary of the Chief of Technical Air Armament from 18 December 1944 to the end of the war has been preserved. In addition, there is an extensive collection of circulars and minutes of conferences by Göring, Milch, the General Aircraft Master and the Reich Minister for Armaments and War Production as well as the Hunter's Staff. Much of the overdelivery is due to technical documentation and correspondence with companies. Particularly noteworthy here are raw materials, construction and procurement programmes and tables on flight inventory. Pre-archival order: The archive material, which has only been handed down in fragments, originates from the return of files from the USA and Great Britain to the Document Centre of the Military History Research Office, from where it was handed over to the military archive in 1968.

Preliminary remark: The present collection of material on biographies was received by the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart in December 1975 as a gift from Freiherr Meinrad von Ow, Munich. It formed part of the written estate of General Franz Freiherr von Soden (1856 - 1945) and was collected by him in the years 1919 - 1945. The original reason for this may have been Sodens' plan to "compile a book of honour for the higher leaders". In 1921 or 1924, he succeeded in enriching his collection with material that had grown up in the years 1916/17 to about 20 officers killed in World War II under Lieutenant Colonel Osterberg (cf. No. 379 of the holdings), then Chief of the War Archive, von Soden's collection united documents on the biographies of military personnel, in particular of Württemberg officers, but also of men and women of general importance, as well as of persons who for various reasons found Soden interesting. This writing is of very different nature and quality. It mainly includes obituaries and newspaper articles, often written by Soden, concepts and manuscripts of Sodens on congratulations, eulogies and obituaries, as well as correspondences of Sodens with individual persons represented in the collection and the like. The note "very important" on one of the folders in which the collection was previously kept shows that it was of high value to von Soden. Today it is a welcome addition to the official files, which have not been fully preserved, especially for personnel matters. The collection, which comprised 6 folders when it was transferred to the archive, was created by superimposing the individual documents, newspaper clippings and the like from Soden and giving them a number. The documents received at different times for one and the same person were therefore usually not available. Since the collection lacked an internal order and since von Soden did not create an index either, it was neither usable in practice nor needed consideration of its previous state of order in the current reorganization, in which the material available for each person was combined and the inventory was based on an alphabetical classification. As a rule, the information in the title recordings was taken from the holdings themselves. Only the life data, partly also the first names and with officers the contingent affiliation were often supplemented with other aids (above all the archival holdings M 430/1 - M 430/5 general reference books and biographical encyclopaedias). However, it would only have been possible to achieve completeness in these additions, which are marked as such by square brackets only in justified exceptional cases, with a workload that would be out of proportion to the source value of the holdings. Unless otherwise stated, the officers are always members of the Württemberg army. The note "died" means both "died" and "fallen" or "died as a result of injury". The stock comprises 602 numbers (0, 85 linear metres). It was recorded at the beginning of 1977 by the archivist Herrmann under the supervision of Oberstaatsarchivrat Dr. Fischer, who was also responsible for the revision of the title recordings and the elaboration of the repertory. Stuttgart, August 1977(Fischer)

Foreword: The find book was created in 1966 by Mr. Kossack, the head of the archive at that time. The following introductory presentation is limited primarily to administrative-historical aspects, the present collection being specifically the administrative management of the Charité Hospital. After the establishment of the institution in 1710, which was initially to serve as a plague hospital but then, since Berlin was spared the plague, served as a workhouse and garrison hospital, it was subordinated to the Prussian Poor Management. The Cabinet Order of King Friedrich Wilhelm I of 8 November 1726 expanded the facility into a citizen hospital according to the plan of the first inspector Christian Habermass. In 1798, in addition to the Directorate for the Poor, the College Medicum was included in the supervision of the Charité. The measure was intended to improve medical care and clinical education, as the poor management only supervised from the point of view of the administration. From the very beginning the training of military doctors for the Prussian army was in the foreground. As a result of the introduction of Stein's reforms, there was no more room for the two superior authorities. In 1816 it was subordinated to the Berlin government, which was part of the Ministry of the Interior as a central authority. After the dissolution of the Berlin government, supervision was transferred to the police president in Berlin. Various reforms were carried out concerning the internal conditions of the Charité as a teaching and medical institution. By the Regulativ of 7 September 1830 a "Royal Board of Trustees for Hospital Affairs" was created, which was subordinated to the Ministry for Spiritual, Educational and Medical Affairs. This board of trustees, as the central authority, from now on supervised the Charité, both from an administrative and a clinical point of view. The board of trustees consisted of a president and six other members. The President was the Privy Senior Medical Officer Prof. Dr. Johann Nepomuk Rust. Rust, who himself was director of the surgical and ophthalmological clinic of the Charité, carried out an important activity for the Charité. From the beginning, the management of the Charité was carried out by a doctor and, in administrative matters, by a chief inspector. In 1846 the management of the institution was transferred to an officer, the Major Hirsch, while the Chief Inspector Carl Heinrich Esse was responsible for the administrative affairs. This ended the supervision of the Board of Trustees for Hospital Affairs over the Charité. The dissolution of the Board of Trustees took place at the beginning of 1848. The Charité Hospital was now under the direct supervision of the Ministry of Spiritual, Educational and Medical Affairs. An "Instruction for the Directorate of the Royal Charité Hospital of 3 May 1846" regulated the legal status and duties of the director. An "Instruction für die Charité-Direktion zu Berlin" of 30 March 1850, issued by the Ministry for Spiritual, Educational and Medical Affairs, established the legal status and tasks of the Charité-Direktion. After Hirsch's departure in 1849, a directorate consisting of a medical director and an administrative director was set up. This instruction from 1850 remained in force until 1929. After that, the two directors were legally equal and had to fulfil the duties of the previous Board of Trustees. The powers conferred on the Charité directorate corresponded to those of the governments according to the instructions of 23 October 1817 and 31 December 1825. A cabinet order of 6 January 1904 determined that the post of medical director should always be filled by a senior military doctor. With the departure of the last medical director on 1 October 1929, this post was not filled again. This prompted the Ministry of Science, the Arts and National Education to submit a new draft instruction to the Administrative Director. Thereafter, the Charité was described as "an independent foundation under public administration, under public law, with its own legal personality". The legal representative was the Administrative Director of the Charité Hospital. His tasks included the "care for the Charité, the direct execution of the administrative business concerning them, the supervision of the economic and technical operations, the management of their property and cash management, as well as the preservation of their justice and the care and promotion of their internal and external existence". It has not been possible to establish whether these Instructions have entered into force. However, a review of the relevant administrative files of the inventory has shown that the draft instructions were followed until 1945. According to an overview of the areas of work existing in the Administration Directorate from 1931, the following areas were available: -Office Management - Calculature - Cash - General Registry - Spa Costs - Office - Reception and Health Interview - Costumery - Chancery - Chancery - Telephone Headquarters - Kitchen Administration - Home Management - Washing and Laundry - Inspections - Operations Inspection The Business Distribution Plan of 1 November 1937 lists 37 subject areas with 35 civil servants and 50 employees. No new business distribution plan was drawn up in the following years. (Cf. business distribution plan of the Charité management v. 1.11.1937 in: Charité-Direktion Nr. 2168 - Course of business of the Charité). History of records and holdings: I. Registry ratios: The registry of the Charité Directorate corresponds in its layout and management to the older authority registries. The file titles correspond to the file contents. Until the introduction of the standing file registry and the new file plan according to the decimal classification at the end of 1932, the registry management remained unchanged. There existed main groups, marked with Roman numerals. The further subdivision (Arabic numeral) referred to the subject group and the third numeral to the file unit (e.g. I.1.No.4). The administrative subordination of the Charité Hospital under 4 different central authorities (from 1727 Armen-Direktion, 1817 Regierung Berlin, 1822 Polizei-Präsidium Berlin, 1830 -1846 Kuratorium für die Krankenhaus-Angelegenheiten, from 1846 Ministerium für die geistlichen-, Unterrichts- und Medizinalangelegenheiten direkt) also had an effect on the registry conditions. Thus the files of the individual superior authorities kept on the Charité were inserted after the change of the subordination relationship of the registry of the Charité Directorate and continued there. The files, which were not continued at the Charité directorate, were retained in order not to break the historical context. The competent State Archives have been consulted and have given their consent. With the introduction of the new file plan at the end of 1932, two registry layers were created, so that according to § 62 OVG a separation of both registry layers was carried out while continuing the archive signatures. There was no interworking according to § 63 OVG. The new file plan was four-digit (Arabic numerals) and was initially retained in the years after 1945. TWO. Access: Before the takeover, the inventory was located in the administration building of the Faculty of Medicine (Charité). A pre-regulation after the registry signatures had already taken place. In order to be able to carry out archive indexing and to achieve controlled use, it was necessary to transfer the holdings to the university archive. The takeover took place in the spring of 1961. The archive had to be rearranged according to the registry signatures, which took place in the autumn of 1961. The collection also includes approx. 500 books of recordings/receptions from the 1st half of the 18th century to the end of the 19th century, which are stored separately and were not included in the finding aid book. III. archival treatment: After completion of the order work 1963 with the listing was begun. The file units were listed individually. The "extended distortion" (§ 87 OVG) was applied. The internal order was based on the existing registry order, since this remained unchanged during the activity of the registry trainer (§ 61 OVG). A reorganization was therefore not necessary (§ 65 - 68 OVG). The stocktaking process was carried out in accordance with § 49 OVG, since the number of files of the poor directorate, the government of Berlin, the police headquarters and the board of trustees for hospital affairs, which were not continued, is very small. In spite of the two existing registry layers, a continuous distortion of the inventory was carried out. The indexing was carried out in the years 1963 - 1965 by the then head of the university archive, Mr. Kossack. Citation style: HU UA, Charité-Verwaltungsdirektion.01, No. XXX.

Inventory description: Dept. 18 Bauordnungsamt Scope: 1129 VE (= 197 archive cartons and Überform, 32 lfm = status 14.4.2014) Duration: 1840 - 1990 (above all 1900 - 1950) I. For the development of the building administration Due to the considerable increase in municipal building activity, an independent building and civil engineering office was set up in 1891 in place of the previous city building authority by resolution of the city council assembly, with the building police being located at the building authority. From 1899/1900 the offices were again combined as the Stadtbauamt (Stadtbauamt) (under master builder Georg Metzler, from 1910 Hermann Hüther) with further personnel reinforcement, whereby the following departments existed (essentially until 1939): - canal and road construction; - harbour constructions; - building police and building maintenance; - new construction; - surveying office; - horse husbandry/street cleaning/garbage removal; - municipal nursery; - registry/office. In 1939, after a division of the city planning office, there were three separate offices - building police; - municipal building police (with the building police under the direction of the city planning council (since 1933) Walter Köhler, the latter also included the city nursery); - municipal civil engineering office including street cleaning and surveying office (director: city planning council Hüther). The division of the department in spring 1946 provided for a building department (department head: Hanns Schmitt). After the retirement of Walter Köhler (1890-1977) in 1956, the management of the building administration was transferred to Listmann. At that time it comprised - the building administration office (including the rent authority); - the office for town planning and building supervision; - the building construction office; - the civil engineering office; - the surveying office; - the garden office. Since then, the building administration has been reorganised several times, most recently comprehensively at the beginning of 1998 with the establishment of a building authority from the merger of various building authorities and the establishment of a building maintenance and administration company. II. structure and content The department set up in 1996 in the course of relocations is composed of the file deliveries of the Building Code Office (63) in connection with the demolition of private residential and commercial (non-urban) buildings. The material came into the city archives mainly in the context of a large takeover on 10.02.1993, further by smaller levies. These are mainly building police approval procedures (individual case files) of the city planning office or city building department, which are laid out according to streets or companies. The length and scope of the project, as well as the uniformity and peculiarity of the file management, which stretched far back beyond the caesura of 1945, made it sensible to set it up as a separate department. The content includes numerous files on important industrial companies in Worms, including Cornelius Heyl AG, Lederwerke Doerr, and others.

The archive of the Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium was stored in the archive room of the Gymnasium, which was located in the basement of the building at 117er Ehrenhof, until it was taken over by the city archive on 3 September 2008. The files, photos and documents were stored on wooden and steel shelves and in locked steel cabinets (personalia), roughly sorted according to material groups, file groups or filing layers. Earlier registry orders were no longer recognizable. The printed programmes (predecessors of the annual reports) and prize distributions up to 1900, the testimonies from 1901 to 1944, censorship lists from 1894/95, 1900/01 and 1910/11 to 1944/45 (incomplete) as well as files up to 1992/2000 and photos up to 2005 were taken over by the City Archives, as well as a selection of course books from 1974/75, 1979/80, 1984/85, 1994/95 and 1995/96. The part of the school archive now stored in the town archives comprises the printed prize distributions of the Lycées of the Napoleonic period, the invitations and programmes of the Grand Ducal Gymnasium as well as the preserved documents of the Grand Ducal, Old (or Autumn) and New (or Easter) Gymnasiums. In addition, the records from the Hessian, National Socialist and post-war periods. The files of the representative for the secondary schools in Mainz 1945 (personal union with the then director Dr. August Mayer), the files of the circle of friends and sponsors of the Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium (formerly: Bund der Freunde und ehemaligen Schüler des Humanistischen Gymnasiums) and 2 files of the Philologenverband Rheinland-Pfalz (board in personal union with the director Dr. Peter Fehl) belong to the archive. The documents of the representative for the secondary schools in Mainz are especially interesting for the school system of the immediate post-war period in Mainz and because of the documented denazification measures of Mainz teachers. The circle of friends and supporters of the Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium takes care of contacts with former pupils, organises events and plays a decisive role in events such as school anniversaries. The registry work began in January 2011 and was completed in October 2013, the trainee Mrs. Saskia David recorded in August 2011 the archival records no. 209 / 400 - 708. Although two registry layers were still visible during the registry work, it must be stated that the majority of the originally existing registry orders have been dissolved over the decades. The school archive was thoroughly thinned again and again, especially for school anniversaries and commemorative publications or other publications. Documents were torn out of their original file context and brought into new "artificial" contexts. In this way, folders were created with topics such as "Interesting Facts on School History" or material collections for essays, commemorative publications, exhibitions and anniversaries. The two registration layers mentioned above included the administrative files from about 1930 to 1945, arranged according to the registration plan for secondary schools [signature 209 / 1042, with date of receipt stamp of 4 July 1931], which provides for file groups from I.1 to XXV.10, and the second administrative files from 1946 to 1959, which were created according to the same plan. The files were stapled in cardboard folders of different colours, handwritten with the registration signature and the title according to the registration plan. Since the folders contained a metal stapling, they were in most cases replaced by archive folders. The original registry signature, if available, is indicated in the Faust database and in the Findbuch in the category "Old registry signature". Archivale 209/978 contains an extended version of the above-mentioned registration plan (10 pages, typewritten, 1959). Until the end of the First World War, the tradition essentially consisted of testimonies, censorship lists and personal files, which began in 1870. With a few exceptions, the transmission of material files only begins at the end of the First World War. In Archivale 209 / 897, there is a reference to the fact that "the files of the Gymnasialarchiv are very incomplete, since a large part of them was lost during many years of storage in the wet cellar of the destroyed school building [at the 117er Ehrenhof]". School principal Dr. Fehl writes on 15.4.1959 (209/978): "Due to the effects of the war further documents, especially of the "Old Gymnasium" are no longer available." In addition, it is pointed out that "the files of the Hessisches Staatsarchiv Darmstadt and the school department of the then government in Darmstadt concerning the grammar school were completely destroyed by fire in 1944". (209/897) The holdings included two files of the Gutenberg School, Oberschule für Jungen (now Staatliches Gymnasium am Kurfürstlichen Schloss), which were added to the holdings of the City Archives: 202/246: Luftwaffenhelferangelegenheiten (1942-1945) and 202/247: Schülerunfallversicherung (1936-1944). The receipts of the 1960s, hourly tables of other federal states (1965), files on the class parents' advisory board, on long-distance calls, stocks of cleaning utensils and on the Mainz study level 1979/80 (13 D1-3, pupil's bows), a total of about 1 linear metre were collected. The holdings now include the indexes 1-1069, the following signatures were not assigned: 209 / 412, 413, 606, 671, 790, 975, 976. Because of the described state of the Gymnasialarchiv, a new overall content structure was created, which is based on the classification for the Gymnasium am Kurfürstlichen Schloss (holdings 202) archive already listed in the Stadtarchiv. The photo collection of the Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium, as far as it was taken over into the city archives, is extensive and includes photos from the 1890s to 2005. Unfortunately, it is largely disordered and still requires a proper sorting, sorting and indexing (cf. 209 / 1044-1069). 26.10.2013, Ramona Weisenberger School History The history of the Mainz Humanistic Gymnasium, today's Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium, has been excellently researched and published, only the commemorative publications "400 Jahre Gymnasium Moguntinum : Festschrift des Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasiums Mainz. - Mainz, 1962", "Gymnasium Moguntinum : the history of the Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium Mainz. - Mainz, 1980" and "Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium Mainz : the history of the school / edited by Ferdinand Scherf, Meike Hensel-Grobe, Franz Dumont. - Ruhpolding [et al.], 2007" For an understanding of the files and the history of provenance, the important organisational changes in school history will be presented here. The file tradition does not begin until the 19th century, for the sake of completeness the prehistory is briefly mentioned below. The school was founded on 9.12.1561 as "Gymnasium Moguntinum" in the Burse Zum Algesheimer by the Jesuits and was also run by the Jesuits until 1773. From 1618 to 1782 it was in the Domus Universitatis and from 1782 to 1792 in the Kronberger Hof, where the seminary had previously been located from 1662 to 1773. In 1792 the school moved to the Augustinian monastery, where it remained until 1798, when the city was taken over by the French. Under French rule the grammar school was continued from 1798 to 1802 as a central school and from 1802 to 1814 as a French imperial lyceum in the former Jesuit novitiate. After the withdrawal of the French in 1814, the school now had its seat again in the Kronberger Hof as "Großherzoglich Hessisches Gymnasium bzw. Großherzogliches Gymnasium". In 1829 the "Bischöfliche Gymnasium", founded in 1805, was integrated into the Großherzogliche Gymnasium. In 1889 the grammar school was divided into two buildings due to the increasing number of pupils: In the new building on Kaiserstraße, where the Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium is still located today, the middle and upper grades of the grammar school were first accommodated, the lower grades and three preschool classes were taught in the old grammar school at Kronberger Hof. In 1900 the Gymnasium was divided into two separate institutions with their own directors: the Großherzogliches Ostergymnasium in the Kaiserstraße with the start of school at Easter and the Großherzogliches Herbstgymnasium in the Kronberger Hof with the start of school in autumn. From 1912/13 the school year begins in all schools at Easter, so the Herbstgymnasium is renamed Altes Gymnasium and the Ostergymnasium is renamed Neues Gymnasium. Since the beginning of the war in 1914, the Neue Gymnasium on Kaiserstraße has served as a military hospital (after the end of the First World War, the French Girls' Lycée was set up there) and is therefore housed together with the Realgymnasium under catastrophic spatial conditions in today's Schlossgymnasium. In 1923 the Realgymnasium was confiscated by the French occupying authorities, now the Realgymnasium and Neues Gymnasium are accommodated in the Höhere Mädchenschule, the school attendance takes place in shifts. Under these poor conditions, the number of pupils in both the new and old grammar schools is declining. In response, the "Bund der Freunde des Menschenrechtsistischen Gymnasiums" was founded in 1922 to halt the decline of the Gymnasium. In 1924 Neues Gymnasium and Altes Gymnasium were merged in the Kronberger Hof to form the "Altes Gymnasium" or "Hessisches Altes Gymnasium". From 1925 the institution was called "Hessisches Gymnasium", as you can read on the certificates, or just "Gymnasium Mainz" (see 209/963). Starting from these years the number of pupils slowly rises again. Under National Socialist rule, the Gymnasium was renamed "Adam-Karrillon-Gymnasium" on 12 May 1933. Adam Karrillon was a former high school student, doctor and local poet. In January 1943 the lessons were transferred to the former Hermann-Göring-Schule, today the Staatliche Gymnasium am Kurfürstlichen Schloss. The school building of the Adam-Karrillon-Gymnasium is destroyed during the bomb attack on Mainz on 27.02.1945. After the end of the Second World War, teaching was resumed on 2 October 1945 at the Marienschule am Willigisplatz (today's Bischöfliches Willigis-Gymnasium) under the new director Dr August Mayer, who was also the representative for the secondary schools in Mainz. The name "Adam-Karrillon-Gymnasium" is no longer used, instead the school is again simply called "Gymnasium Mainz". In June 1953, the school was renamed "Staatliches Rabanus-Maurus-Gymnasium" (State Rabanus-Maurus Grammar School), which can now move back into the rebuilt school building on Kaiserstraße / 117er Ehrenhof. In 1958 the classical philologist Dr. Peter Fehl took over the management of the grammar school, which he held until 1977. In 1962 the school celebrates its 400th anniversary.

Brief description: In October 1979, the local council decided to establish a collection of urban history with a special focus on the 20th century within the framework of a contract for work. The task of this institution should not only be a collection of material, but primarily the preparation and presentation of contemporary historical themes in exhibitions. In April 1980 the journalist and historian Dr. Karlheinz Fuchs was entrusted with this task. A public appeal by the then Lord Mayor Manfred Rommel in the spring of 1982 for the handing over of documents and objects from the Nazi era was met with great approval by the public, so that numerous objects could be handed over to the employees for their exhibitions. In addition, contemporary witnesses were available for interviews. Between August 1982 and December 1984, five exhibitions on the subject of "Stuttgart in the Third Reich" were shown. When the project was discontinued in 1984, an exhibition was still pending ("Stuttgart in War - the Years from 1939 to 1945"). Under the auspices of historian Dr. Marlene Hiller of the Library for Contemporary History, this was made up on the occasion of the 50th return of the outbreak of war in 1989. Scope: 1100 units / 6.1 linear metres Content: Documents: Documents on the establishment of the project Contemporary History and its staff; Planning and realisation of the exhibitions; Collection of exhibition objects; Loans, donations and purchases for the exhibitions; Interviews with contemporary witnesses Photographs: Photos from the exhibitions; photos, contact prints, negatives, slides and photo albums from the Nazi era, audio cassettes and tapes: interviews with contemporary witnesses, original recordings from the Nazi era, radio broadcasts, accompanying music in the exhibitions, videos and films: Interviews with contemporary witnesses, documentaries, feature films and television films, recordings of the project Zeitgeschichte Bücher: Bücher aus der NS-Zeit as well as books about the NS period Posters and plans from the NS period Duration: (1891-) 1979-1990 Instructions for use: Some units are still subject to a 30-year blocking period; three personal units are subject to special blocking periods; many photo units are subject to copyright; some units are blocked for conservation reasons. Foreword: History of the project In October 1979, the local council decided to build up a collection of urban history with a special focus on the 20th century. The task of this institution should not only be a collection of material, but first and foremost the preparation and presentation of contemporary historical themes in the form of exhibitions. In April 1980, a contract for work was signed with the historian and journalist Dr. Karlheinz Fuchs, according to which he was commissioned to develop a concept for the collection of urban history with a special focus on the 20th century ("collection of contemporary history") as well as to prepare and organise exhibitions on contemporary historical themes in agreement with and in cooperation with the cultural office of the city of Stuttgart. In addition, the two historians Bernd Burkhardt and Walter Nachtmann have also been working on the project since spring and autumn 1980, respectively. The graphic artist Michael Molnar was engaged in freelance collaboration for the exhibition design and realization. A secretariat was set up in April 1982. In August of the same year, two additional freelancers were hired on an hourly basis. Since the end of 1982, a pedagogical-didactic employee had been working on the project, whose position was financed by the Robert Bosch Foundation in the first year and then by the Cultural Office. In the spring of 1982, the press published an appeal by the then Lord Mayor Manfred Rommel to support the contemporary history project by surrendering documents and objects from the Nazi era. This appeal received a great response from the population, so that the employees were given numerous objects for their exhibitions. In addition, contemporary witnesses were available for interviews. The venue for all exhibitions was the Tagblatt Tower in Eberhardstraße (cultural centre "Kultur unterm Turm"). On 13 August 1982 the first exhibition "Prolog. Political Posters of the Late Weimar Republic" opened. The accompanying exhibition "Völkische Radikale in Stuttgart. On the Prehistory and Early Phase of the NSDAP 1890-1925" was shown from November 12, 1982. Both exhibitions ran until 12 January 1983. The second major exhibition "The Seizure of Power. From Republic to Brown City" was opened on 28 January 1983. The accompanying exhibition "Friedrich Wolf. The years in Stuttgart 1927-1933. An example" was shown from 9 July to 13 November 1983. From 23 March to 22 December 1984 the exhibition "Adaptation - Resistance - Persecution. The years from 1933 to 1939". This exhibition encompassed the themes "Everyday Life", "Resistance" and "Persecution of the Jews of Stuttgart", originally planned as individual complexes, each between 1933 and 1939, whereby views of the wartime period also showed the consequences of the National Socialist dictatorship for Stuttgart. Extensive catalogues were published for all exhibitions (see references). Dissolution of the project, exhibition "Stuttgart in the Second World War" Because of the amount of material, for financial reasons and also because the project broke new ground, the deadlines set for the individual exhibitions could not be met. When the fixed-term employment contracts of the project staff expired as planned at the end of March 1984 and the project was terminated, an exhibition was still pending ("Stuttgart in the War - the Years from 1939 to 1945"). This was made up for the 50th return of the outbreak of war in 1989 (1.9. - 22.7.). The specialist staff for this was provided by the Library for Contemporary History, money and premises were provided by the City of Stuttgart. The historian Dr. Marlene Hiller from the Library of Contemporary History was commissioned with the exhibition project. Further employees were Chris Glass, Dr. Benigna Schönhagen and Stefan Kley. A book accompanying the exhibition was also published here. Content of the inventory: On the one hand, the collection contains documents and files produced by the members of the contemporary history project as part of their work. This includes correspondence with lenders and interview partners, but also correspondence with the administration about the provision of office space, the collection of information material and the like. By far the largest part of the collection, however, consists of the collected objects, photos, sound and film cassettes as well as books, which were acquired for the individual exhibitions by donation, loan or purchase. A further focus are the numerous interviews with contemporary witnesses, some of which are available in the form of video cassettes, but most of which are in the form of audio cassettes, most of which have been digitized subsequently and can now be used in the form of mp3 or wav files. However, this only applies to audio cassettes with interviews with contemporary witnesses. Sound cassettes with other content (e.g. music, industrial noises, excerpts from speeches) or sound cassettes on which (today's) SWR programmes are recorded have not been digitised because they are also available elsewhere (e.g. in the radio archive). Some of the interviews were transcribed by the project staff (some, however, incomplete). The original plan to issue an extra volume with the interviews conducted could no longer be realized. . Further information on the inventory and its use: The inventory comprises a total of 1100 units. The written documents have a circumference of 6.1 linear metres. There are also seven photo albums, 297 photo folders, one framed photo, 665 slides, 107 units with negatives, four films, 58 postcards, 20 audio and magnetic tapes, 56 video cassettes, 331 audio cassettes and 59 books. The actual period of the collection runs from 1979 to 1990, with the collection containing pre-files or documents, books, photos, etc., which were taken before 1945 and date back to 1891. The documents were handed over to the City Archive by the Cultural Office in May 1987. Since there was no order or classification, this had to be done on the basis of the existing material itself. Some of the documents are still blocked due to the general 30-year blocking period for fact files. Copyrights must be respected for the numerous photos stored in the photo archive.
