Fonds Geheimes Staatsarchiv Preußischer Kulturbesitz, I. HA Rep. 129 A - Registration[by Friedrich Karl Heinrich Graf von Wylich and] Lottum on the catering of French troops (Army catering negotiations) (stock)

Foreword On 24 February 1812 an alliance treaty was signed between Prussia and France (Paris Convention), which obliged Prussia to provide military support to France in all wars in Europe - except in Spain, Italy and Greece. The French troops were allowed to march through Prussia with food and horses. The French commanders received extensive powers, so that Prussia was in fact again under French occupation. Major General Friedrich Karl Heinrich Graf von Wylich und Lottum was entrusted with the implementation of the Paris Convention of 24 February 1812, as far as the supply of the reserve magazines at home and abroad and all negotiations with the French General Director Matthieu Graf Dumas were concerned. Major General Count von Wylich und Lottum had already been head of the old army catering system (field catering department, general catering department and general catering directorate) since November 1810. As General Commissioner he conducted the army catering negotiations with the French Marshal Louis-Nicolas Davout (Prince Eckmühl) in Szczecin in March and April 1812. After the return of the Major General Count von Wylich and Lottum to Berlin in April 1812, the office for feeding the French troops was set up, which was then called the General Commissariat for feeding the French and Allied troops. The present files originate from the negotiations between Major General Count von Wylich and Lottum and the French Marshal Davout (Prince Eckmühl) in Stettin (Stettiner Akten) and were not combined with the files of the office for the catering of the French troops. Only a few volumes of the Szczecin files were continued in Berlin, which were integrated into the GStA PK, I. HA Rep. 130 Generalkommissariat to feed the French and Allied troops. The holdings GStA PK, I. HA Rep. 129 A Registratur[by Friedrich Karl Heinrich Graf von Wylich and] Lottum about the catering of French troops (army catering negotiations) comprises 11 sections, most of which are still divided into several parts. An inventory file could not be found in the Secret State Archives of Prussian Cultural Heritage, which is why the details of the inventory history are unknown. For the inventory, there is a register of authorities, which was prepared by the secret registrar and privy councillor Schmidt. The collection was revised in October 1969 in the former Central State Archives of the GDR Merseburg office. In 2007, the register was entered into the Augias database by the archival inspector Verena Kohnke and revised, partly rearranged and classified by the undersigned. Some file titles and contained notes were checked and in some cases supplemented. In addition, the portfolio was re-signed in 2007 by Mr. Szal.
