History: Prof. Friedrich Engesser (*12.02.1848 in Weinheim/Bergstraße, 29.08.1931 in Achern) studied engineering sciences at the Polytechnic School Karlsruhe from 1865 to 1869 and then worked as an engineer in the Baden state service, last as a railway construction inspector from 1884. In 1885 he was appointed to the Technical University of Karlsruhe as full professor for structural analysis, bridge construction and railway construction. In 1915 Engesser retired at his own request. From the winter semester 1919/20 up to and including the winter semester 1921/22 he held a teaching position at the Technical University of Karlsruhe.

The Ministry of the Interior, created by the Decree of 10 October 1849, was the supreme head of the internal administration of the Land, insofar as it did not fall within the remit of other ministries or the State Ministry. The Ministry was in charge of the supervision of all local authorities and was entrusted with the management of the sovereign police force and the supervision of all police authorities and institutions. His tasks also included the handling of economic and general agricultural matters, including the regulation of property, farm and day labour relations, transport, association and press matters, the administration of roads and hydraulic engineering as well as social services. In addition, the Ministry's portfolio included citizenship matters, border and electoral matters, as well as civilian administration matters related to the military. Essentially, the business circle of the Ministry remained unchanged until 1945. It was extended in 1875 to include the civil status system. In 1905, the Ministry of Justice, Department of Education, transferred the affairs of the technical and commercial technical and further education school system from the Ministry of Justice to the Ministry of the Interior. During the First World War, the Ministry was responsible for controlling the food supply and the war economy, and after the war it was responsible for civilian demobilization. In 1919 the newly founded Ministry of Agriculture, Domains and Forests (see 5.12-4/2) took over the handling of agricultural matters, including rural labour and ownership, and in 1937 also agricultural water matters. There are gaps in the file tradition. Major losses were caused by the fire in the government building in 1865. At the beginning of 1945, files from 1933 to 1945 were deliberately destroyed in the Ministry. Most of the files of the Department of Social Policy from the period after 1918 were also lost. A.

In 1849, after the introduction of the ministerial organisation, special departments were created for the tasks of the administration of worship and medicine performed by the government or its Special Department of Education (see 2.21-1). These departments were temporarily attached to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and then to the Ministry of Justice as departments for educational, medical and spiritual affairs. It was not until 1919 that a special ministry was established under the above-mentioned authority name, the members of which were also individually referred to as "Ministry of Education", "Ministry of Art", "Ministry of Spiritual Affairs" and "Ministry of Medicine". The competence extended to the entire area of education administration (including the University of Rostock), the administration of art institutions, the supervision of religious communities (including the supervision of foundations and institutions for pious and mild purposes) as well as all matters of medical and health care (including veterinary matters). After the transformation of the State Ministry in 1934 (Rbl. 1935, p. 3), the Ministry was renamed "State Ministry, Department of Education, Arts, Spiritual and Medical Affairs". With the ordinance of 6 Oct. 1941 (Rbl. 1941, p. 199), the previous departments were given the designation "Science, Education and Training". At the same time the affairs of the Staatstheater, the Mecklenburgische Landesbühne and the Landestheater Neustrelitz (to the State Ministry) as well as the health service (to the State Ministry, Department of the Interior) were spun off. These changes are no longer reflected in the inventory situation. The tradition for the period 1918-1945 is partly incomplete. GENERAL REGISTRATURE A.

History of the Inventor: The Technical Office, established in 1933, set up testing facilities for weapons and equipment at various locations that existed until 1945. Inventory description: KOMMANDO DER ERPROBUNGSSTELLEN According to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty of 1919, the German Reich was prohibited from developing and constructing aircraft for military purposes. Nevertheless, as early as 1920, the Reichswehr Ministry (RWM) set up units with the task of carrying out preparatory work for the creation of development and testing sites for an air force. For example, a "Air Defence" (TA) unit was set up in the Truppenamt (TA) and an aeronautical unit in the Inspektion für Waffen und Gerät (IWG). After the merger of the IWG with the Waffenamt (Wa.A) of the RWM at the beginning of 1927, the aeronautical department became the department 6 F of the testing group (Wa.Prw. 6 F). He was in charge of the development departments disguised as civil engineering offices as well as the test groups in Johannisthal and Rechlin. The testing thus fell within the competence of the testing department of the Weapons Office. At the end of November 1928, the procurement department was also taken over by the Wa.L.Prw. Group. At the end of July 1939, in order to better meet the growing requirements, the Aviation Group in the Weapons Office (Wa.L) was divided into three groups: "Development of aircraft (Wa.L. I)", "Development of equipment" (Wa.L. II) and "Testing" (Wa.L. III). There was also a group on "Procurement" and a group on "Defense Economics and Armaments". On February 8, 1933, on the orders of Reichswehr Minister Blomberg, the Air Protection Office (LA) was formed, which was now also to be responsible for the development, testing and procurement of aircraft, aircraft engines and special aircraft equipment. He was assigned the aviation group in the weapons office, now known as Wa.Prw. 8, as Division L 2. After the transfer of the air-raid protection office to the newly created Reich Aviation Ministry (RLM) in May, the aviation technology department was initially subordinated as the Technical Department (B II) to the General Office (LB) of the RLM, but then, in the course of the reclassification of the RLM to the Technical Office (LC) on October 1, 1933, and, like the latter, directly subordinated to the Secretary of State for Aviation, Colonel General Milch. It was divided into the departments LC I (Research), LC II (Testing) and LC III (Procurement). Colonel Wimmer, as head of the Technical Office, remained responsible for aviation technology, while Captain Freiherr von Richthofen, who headed the LC II department from June 1934, was in charge of the technical aspects of the test centres (e-places). Until the Luftwaffe was unmasked in March 1935, the tests were carried out by the "Test Centres of the Reich Association of the German Aviation Industry" disguised as civilian. The "Commando der Fliegererprobungsstellen" (Command of Pilot Test Centres), which had been established in 1934 and was based in Rechlin, now appeared as the central testing authority. At the head of the command was the commander of the testing stations (K.d.E.), who was at the same time head of the E station Rechlin and superior of the chief of the E station Travemünde. His supervisor was the head of department LC II (Testing). In December 1936, the E posts Rechlin and Travemünde as well as Tarnewitz were directly subordinated to the new Chief of the Technical Office, Colonel Udet, in 1937 and charged with the development and technical testing of the Luftwaffe equipment. In the course of a reorganization of the entire RLM, the Technical Office was directly subordinated to Göring. As a result, Udet changed the organizational structure of the Technical Office again in May 1938 and dissolved the office of Commander of the Test Laboratories. The E posts now received independent command offices, which were technically subordinate to the head of the Technical Office. On February 1, 1939, the Technical Office, the Supply Office and the "Industry and Economy" group of offices were merged to form the new General Airworthiness Inspectorate (GL) and once again placed under the authority of the State Secretary for Aviation. Lieutenant General Udet was appointed General Airworthiness Officer and was now responsible for the management and control of the entire aviation technology as well as for the securing of the entire air force requirement while retaining his function as Chief of the Technical Office. After his suicide on 17 November 1941, the former Secretary of State for Aviation at the RLM, Generalfeldmarschall Milch, assumed these offices in personal union. In autumn 1941 a new command of the testing stations (Kdo.d.E) was established. In technical and operational terms, it was subordinate to the Commander of the Test Centres (K.d.E ), who in turn was subordinate to the Chief of the Technical Office and worked closely with the responsible development departments C to E of the Technical Office (GL/C). This post was held by Major Petersen until the end of the war. After the General Aircraft Master's Office was dissolved on 27 July 1944, the business area and thus the entire technical air armament was transferred to the Chief of Technical Air Armament (Chief TLR). The office was subordinated to the General Staff of the Luftwaffe and thus to the High Command of the Luftwaffe (OKL). The commander of the testing stations was now directly under the command of the Chief of Technical Air Armament, but was then subordinated to the commander of the Ersatzluftwaffe (BdE-Lw) shortly before the end of the war. Until 1945 the following E-positions were established and partially dissolved: Rechlin, Travemünde, Tarnewitz, Peenemünde, Udetfeld, Madüsee, Werneuchen, Süd (Foggia), Munster-Nord, Jesau, Arktis-Finsee, Cazeaux (Süd) and Karlshagen. In addition, a large number of test commands and test squadrons were set up from 1941 onwards, some of which were formed only briefly for the testing of individual aircraft types and quickly dissolved again after testing. ERPROBUNGSSTELLEN Torpedowaffenplatz der Luftwaffe Gotenhafen-Hexengrund (ca. 1942-1945) On April 2, 1942, the Luftwaffe Torpedowaffenplatz was repositioned as a branch office. He was subordinate to the General Airworthiness Officer (Technical Office) in terms of military service and discipline. He was assigned to Luftgaukommando I in terms of war classification, economy and administration. With effect from 1 May 1944, the Torpedowaffenplatz was then placed under the command of the E units. He was responsible for the testing of air torpedoes and associated dropping devices. Jesau (1943-1944) This E-Stelle was founded in 1943 as an outpost of the Peenemünde-West testing station. The main task of the E-Stelle Jesau was the execution of surveying work for distance and proximity fuses as well as the testing of the rocket-powered aircraft Messerschmitt Me 163. In August 1944 the E-Stelle Jesau was dissolved. Munster-Nord (1935-1945) As early as 1916, a test and production facility for gas ammunition was set up in Munster-Breloh for the first time on 6,500 hectares. From 1935, manufacturing and testing facilities for chemical warfare agents were again built on the site and the Munster-Nord Army Experimental Station, which was subordinate to the Army Ordnance Office, was set up. Both the Luftwaffe and the Weapons Office use the area for technical testing of high attack bombs and low attack spray containers. Peenemünde-West, later Karlshagen (approx. 1939-1945) After the start of construction work at the end of July 1937, Peenemünde-West started operations on 1 April 1938. Uvo Pauls was in charge until September 1, 1942, succeeding Major Otto Stams and Major Karl Henkelmann at the end of 1944. The task of the E unit was the testing of rocket engines and rocket-propelled, remote-controlled dropping weapons (e.g. Fi 103, Hs 298). The central group of the test centre was the air traffic control, which was responsible for the deployment of the aircraft fleet. She was also assigned a weather station. The following test groups were active at the experimental site, working on different tasks: E 2: Aircraft and missile systems with rocket propulsion, including support of the troop test commands (Fi 103 and Hs 117) E 3: Engines and fuels E 4: Radio and radio control systems E 5: Equipment (power supply, control systems, image station, measuring base) E 7: Drop systems, target and target training equipment E 8: Ground systems The E station was moved to Wesermünde air base near Bremerhaven in April 1945. Rechlin (approx. 1925-1945) Already planned in 1916, the "Flieger-Versuchs- und Lehranstalt am Müritzsee" started operations in 1918 during the First World War. Due to the provisions of the Treaty of Versailles, however, the installations there were dismantled again at the beginning of the 1920s. As part of the camouflaged continuation of pilot testing in the Weimar Republic, a test airfield was built in Rechlin from 1925. On the initiative of Hauptmann Student, the German Aviation Research Institute (DVL) in Berlin-Adlershof set up a new "Department M" specifically for this purpose. The "Luftfahrtverein Waren e.V.", founded in 1925, acquired the necessary area on behalf of the Reich and took over the operation of the new airfield. Factory and flight operations began in the summer of 1926. From 1927/28 Albatros Flugzeugwerke GmbH in Berlin-Johannisthal leased the facility, which was now called the "Testing Department of Albatros Flugzeugwerke Johannisthal". After the Reichsverband der Deutschen Luftfahrt-Industrie (RDL) had taken over the site at the insistence of the Reichswehr troop office at the end of 1929, it was continued under the camouflage name "RDL Erprobungsstelle Staaken". After the National Socialists came to power in 1933, the facilities in Rechlin were rapidly expanded to become the largest testing station (E station) for aviation equipment. From 1935, the E-Stelle Rechlin was regarded as a showpiece of the Luftwaffe. Until the end of the war, four large building complexes with different uses were built on the huge area: Group North management and technical administration, air base command and weather station; Testing of airframes (from 1936), of radio and navigation equipment, of aircraft on-board devices and equipment, aeromedical tests as well as high-frequency and ionospheric research Group South Testing of engines, of materials as well as of fuels and lubricants East Group Testing of ammunition for on-board weapons and drop-weapons West Group Military testing (only 1935-1938), test group and shipyard, fracture recovery, training workshop Initially, the focus of testing activities in Rechlin was on flight and engine testing. This included the flight testing of the engines, the measurements on the individual engine components as well as the creation of complete aircraft types. Other areas of activity include the testing of aircraft equipment - from on-board instruments to rescue and safety equipment, hydraulic systems - and radio and navigation equipment. From 1933 the testing of weapons was also carried out in Rechlin. The main focus was on the testing of ammunition for firearms as well as the testing of drop ammunition within the framework of flight testing. After the beginning of the 2nd World War, prey planes were thoroughly tested there and the results evaluated. In addition to the purely technical testing of all land aircraft and their equipment, new aircraft types are tested for their military suitability, especially after the start of the war. For this purpose, the Lärz Test Command was set up, to which these aircraft types were assigned for operational testing. From mid-1944 the testing of the new jet aircraft Me 262, Ar 234 and He 162 received highest priority. The E-Stelle Rechlin has undergone several organisational changes during its existence. An overview of the structure and filling of positions is attached as an annex. This is a compilation from the publication of Beauvais. South (Foggia) (c. 1941-1942) In the second half of 1941, the E-Stelle Süd started operations at the airfield in Foggia, Italy. It was intended for the testing of air torpedoes and underwater weapons, which had to be carried out in Grosseto due to unfavourable conditions. At the end of February 1942, it was decided to move the E-Stelle Süd to the French town of Cazaux, southwest of Bordeaux, and operations began at the airfield in May 1942. The test flights were used for the ballistic measurement of various types of bombs or dropping containers, the testing of target devices and bomb droppings. The commander of the E post was Captain Henno Schlockermann. After Allied air raids in March and September 1944, during which the installations were severely damaged and several test aircraft destroyed, operations had to be restricted and then discontinued altogether. By order of 10 October 1944, the E post was officially closed. Tarnewitz (1937-1945) Construction work began in 1935, and two years later the Tarnewitz electric power station was officially put into operation. The task of the new unit was to test new weapon systems for Luftwaffe aircraft. In addition to machine guns and bombs, this also included the newly developed rocket weapons. The various tasks were performed by the groups W 1 (installation), W 2 (ballistics and sights), W 3 (mountings and air discs) and W 4 (on-board weapons and ammunition). From 1938, the E post was subdivided into the specialist groups machine guns and ammunition, including rocket testing (IIA), mountings and air discs (II D), ballistics and sights (II E), installation of weapons in aircraft (II F). Travemünde (1928-1945) In 1928 a seaplane test centre (SES) was founded in Travemünde under the camouflage name "Reichsverband der Deutschen Luftfahrtindustrie Gruppe Flugzeugbau". Originally planned and established after World War I as a secret testing ground for independent naval aviation, the Travemünde testing ground was subordinated to the RLM in 1934 after the National Socialists seized power and expanded further. The focus of the testing activities in Travemünde was the testing of seaplanes and their equipment, naval mines and air torpedoes as well as special ships and boats for maritime flight operations. This also included testing seaplanes, landing on icy and snowy ground, landing attempts on aircraft carriers and rescue measures on the open sea with the aircraft. The E post was divided into the following groups in 1933: A: Navigation, radio, seaman's equipment, special installations B: Operation of aircraft, ships, docks, catapults and vehicles, ground services E: Flight service, holding pilots ready F: Aircraft testing, preparation, execution and evaluation of measurements, reports, assessments G: Testing of on-board devices, radio measuring devices, laboratory, precision mechanical workshop, photo service, duplication K: Administration, personnel, material, buildings, installations M: engines, propellers, aggregates, workshop and test benches Udetfeld (1940-1945) The Udetfeld electric power station was set up in 1940 near Beuthen/Oberschlesien. At the beginning it was led by Major Werner Zober, later by Lieutenant Colonel Rieser. The test leader was Fl.Stabsingenieur Rudolf Noch. The task of the E-Stelle was the testing of small explosive and incendiary bombs, parachute bombs and special detonators as well as the acceptance blasting of all German bomb types. At times she was also engaged in the testing of parachutes and ejection seats. For this purpose it was equipped step-by-step with a measuring base, several discharge points and a picture position. Last tests and measurements took place until shortly before the invasion of the Soviet army at the end of January 1945. The E-Stelle was dissolved by order of 15 February 1945 and its tasks taken over by the E-Stelle Rechlin. Werneuchen (1942-1945) The E post was established in April 1942 at the air base in Werneuchen. She was responsible for the testing and development of search and target devices for air and sea reconnaissance and worked closely with the Aeronautical Radio Research Institute in Oberpfaffenhofen. Field stations for testing ground radio measuring instruments were located in Weesow and Tremmen. The flight testing of newly developed equipment was initially carried out by the test squadron of the Technical Test Command (TVK), and was then transferred to the newly formed night fighter group 10. Their tasks also included the development and testing of equipment for the defence against interference and deception by the enemy air forces. In Werneuchen, the night hunt radio measuring devices FuG 202 "Lichtenstein", the ship's target search device FuG "Hohentwiel" as well as the ground search devices "Würzburg-Riese" and "Freya" were tested. In February 1945, the E-Stelle was moved to Stade and renamed to E-Stelle Stade in April 1945. The E post was commanded by Major i.G. August Hentz until April 1944, then until its dissolution by Major i.G. Cerener.

Test Command 40 The Fliegerforstschutzverband was formed on 5 March 1940 as an independent association from the "Pest Control Group" of the Flugkommando Berlin, which had existed since 1936. It was mainly used for forest pest control and from October 1941 also took over malaria control in the occupied territories. Numerous spraying and pollination flights were carried out for this purpose. Another focus of his activities was the sowing of agricultural and forestry seeds and the spreading of artificial fertilizers. After being placed under the command of the E units on 1 January 1944, the Fliegerforstschutzverband was renamed E-Kommando 40. By order of 3 September 1944, the command stationed in Göttingen was dissolved and the remainder of the command was transferred to Coburg in November 1944, where it was used to set up E-command 41.

Etatisierung des E-Kommandoos Ende Februar 1945. Lehr- und Erprobungskommando (W) After Colonel Wachtel had already been commissioned since April 1943 to carry out the war operation of the Fieseler Fi 103 (camouflage designation Flak sight FZG 76), the establishment of the Erprobungskommando began in June 1943. In military service it was subordinated to the higher commander of the anti-aircraft artillery schools and in questions of training and testing to the general of the anti-aircraft weapon. It was supplied by Luftgaukommando III, to which it belonged in terms of war classification. On 15 August 1943, the Wachtel Command formed the Flak Regiment 155 (W), which was soon transferred to France. Sonderkommando Fähre (Siebel) The Sonderkommando Fähre was responsible for the provision and operation of air force ferries for the transport of air force goods. (The information on the E-positions and E-commands were published in abbreviated form by Heinrich Beauvais/Karl Kössler/Max Mayer/Christoph Regel: Flugerprobungsstellen bis 1945. Johannisthal, Lipezk, Rechlin, Travemünde, Tarnewitz, Peenemünde-West. Bonn 1998). Characterisation of content: The collection mainly comprises work and test reports as well as correspondence between the command of the test centres and the test centres themselves and superior departments and various companies. Most of the test reports are for the two E posts Rechlin (approx. 200 AU) and Travemünde (approx. 160 AU). About 60 volumes of files with pollination and spray reports including the corresponding maps have been handed down by the Fliegerforstschutzverband. Of the remaining e-positions, only minor fragments of files have been preserved. The seven file volumes of the command of the e-offices, which deal with organizational matters of the e-offices and e-commands, are to be emphasized.

1. Behördengeschichte In der Völkerschlacht bei Leipzig (16. - 19. Oktober 1813) fügten die alliierten Truppen, zu denen auch preußische Verbände gehörten, Napoleon eine verheerende Niederlage zu. König Friedrich August I. von Sachsen, ein Verbündeter Napoleons, geriet bei der Erstürmung der Stadt Leipzig in Gefangenschaft und wurde zunächst ins Berliner Stadtschloss, später dann ins Schloss Friedrichsfelde überführt. Die französische Armee, die Dresden nach dem Sieg bei Lützen am 2. Mai 1813 besetzt hatte, kapitulierte am 11. November 1813. Die Verwaltung des Königreich Sachsen sowie des Herzogtums Sachsen-Altenburg und der reußischen und schwarzburgischen Fürstentümer wurde dem Zentralverwaltungsdepartement übertragen. Dessen Leiter, Freiherr Heinrich Friedrich Karl vom und zum Stein, richtete zum 21. Oktober 1813 das Generalgouvernement der verbündeten Mächte im Königreich Sachsen ein. Als Leitungsgremium wurde ein Gouvernementsrat unter dem Vorsitz des am 9. Dezember 1813 ernannten russischen Generals Nikolai Grigorjewitsch Repnin-Wolkonski eingerichtet. Ihm gehörten russische, preußische und sächsische Beamte an, wobei letztere auf die neue Obrigkeit vereidigt wurde. Repnin-Wolkonski stieß eine Reihe von Verwaltungsreformen an. Auch wurde in Dresden eine Industrieschule eingerichtet, in Leipzig eine Chirurgisch-Medizinische Akademie. Die königlichen Kunstsammlungen, die Brühl’schen Terrassen und der Große Garten in Dresden wurden für die Öffentlichkeit geöffnet. Die Frauenkirche wurde restauriert. Zur Fortführung des Kriegs wurden Landwehr und Landsturm errichtet und ein Banner der freiwilligen Sachsen als Freikorps aufgestellt. Dennoch erlebte der partikulare Patriotismus einen Aufschwung, der auch von den fremden Besatzungsmächten nicht übergangen werden konnte. Um Befürchtungen, das Königreich werde aufgelöst, zu begegnen, versprach Repnin noch in seiner gedruckt erschienenen Abschiedsrede: "Sachsen bleibt Sachsen, und seine Gränzen unangetastet. Eine liberale Verfassung wird die Selbständigkeit des Staates und die Wohlfahrt jedes Einzelnen sichern." (I. HA Rep. 172, Nr. 7, Bl. 3 VS). Nach dem Beginn des Wiener Kongresses übergab Repnin-Wolkonski die Leitung des Generalgouvernements am 8. November 1814 dem preußischen Staatsminister Freiherrn Eberhard Friedrich Christoph Ludwig von der Recke und dem Generalmajor Freiherrn Friedrich Wilhelm Leopold von Gaudy (auch Gaudi). Sie führten beide die Amtsbezeichnung des Generalgouverneurs. Aus der Zeit nach dem Übergang von Russland an Preußen stammt die Geschäftsordnung des Generalgouvernements vom 12. Dezember 1814. Sie basiert auf älteren Instruktionen (Leipzig, 25. Okt. 1813; Leipzig 1. Nov. 1813; 8. Nov. 1813; Wien, 25. Okt. 1814), die in der betreffenden Akte jedoch nicht enthalten sind (I. HA Rep. 172, Nr. 15). Die Grundzüge der Geschäftsordnung des Generalgouvernements dürften jedoch in den Jahren 1813 und 1814 unverändert geblieben sein. Das Generalgouvernement umfasste das Generalsekretariat, vier Sektionen bzw. Verwaltungsabteilungen sowie die Zentralsteuerkommission. Daneben bestand noch der Gouvernementsrat als "Vortrags-Versammlung sämtlicher Herren Gouvernements-Räthe". Das Generalsekretariat war die schriftgutführende Stelle innerhalb des Generalgouvernements. Es führte die Journale und beaufsichtige den Geschäftsgang. Darüber hinaus erledigte das Generalsekretariat alle übergeordneten Materien ("Generalia"), die nicht bei den einzelnen Sektionen ressortierten, sowie die Leitung der Höhere Polizei. Die Angelegenheiten der Höheren Polizei waren vom Vortrag im Gouvernementsrat befreit, wurden allein von den Generalgouverneuren entschieden. Bis zum Übergang an Preußen wurde das Generalsekretariat von Staatsrat Freiherrn Andreas von Merian geleitet, danach von Staatsrat Friedrich Wilhelm August Werner von Bülow. Bülow leitete neben Oberst Dietrich von Miltitz und einem Kriegsrat Krüger auch die 1. Sektion des Generalgouvernements. Dieser Sektion oblagen Angelegenheiten der Justiz, der allgemeinen Polizei, des Medizinal- und Armenwesens, der Gemeinden, Körperschaften und öffentlichen Institute sowie der Kirchen und Schulen. Die 2. Sektion kümmerte sich dagegen um die Finanzen, soweit diese nicht in den Bereich der Zentralsteuerkommission fielen. Zuständig waren hier Karl Ferdinand Friese und der Finanzrat Julius Wilhelm von Oppel. In der 3. Sektion regelte Kriegsrat Krüger die Angelegenheit der Militärverpflegung, während die 4. Sektion mit den restlichen Militärangelegenheiten betraut war, sofern diese nicht in den Geschäftsbereich des Generalmilitärkommandos fielen. Generalmajor Carl Adolf von Carlowitz und Major von Brockhusen waren die zuständigen Beamten. Mitglieder der Zentralsteuerkommission waren Kriegsrat Krüger, Rat und Präsident Moritz Haubold von Schönberg und Hofrat Ferber. Die Sektionschefs hatten jeweils zum Monatsende einen Geschäftsbericht zu verfassen, der über die Generalgouverneure an Staatskanzler Fürst von Hardenberg weitergereicht wurde. Was Entscheidungen anging, so hatten die Sektionschefs der 1., 2. und 4. Sektion über alle Angelegenheiten gemeinschaftlich zu befinden. Bei Differenzen entschieden die Generalgouverneure nach Vortrag im Gouvernementsrat. Eine ganze Reihe wichtiger Angelegenheiten konnte generell nur unter Beteiligung der Generalgouverneure entschieden werden. Die Plenarversammlungen fanden montags, mittwochs und sonnabends ab 10 Uhr vormittags statt. Ansonsten waren die Geschäftszeichen zwischen 9 und 13 bzw. 16 und 19 Uhr. Sofern sie nicht im Zuge der Verwaltungsreform umgebildet wurden, bestanden die königlich-sächsischen Zentralbehörden neben dem Generalgouvernement fort. Das Generalgouvernement übte jedoch die Dienstaufsicht über sie aus. Da das Generalgouvernement bis 1814 dem Zentralverwaltungsdepartement, danach dem Preußischen Staatskanzler nachgeordnet, es selbst aber den sächsischen Behörden übergeordnet war, stellte es eine Art Mittelbehörde dar. Die königlich-sächsischen Behörden sanken dagegen zu Provinzialbehörden herab. Mit den Gouvernementskommissaren und den Polizeibüros verfügte das Generalgouvernement darüber hinaus über neu gebildete, nachgeordnete Dienststellen. Nach dem Abschluss des Friedensvertrags zwischen Preußen und Sachsen am 18. Mai 1815 räumte Preußen das Königreich Sachsen, behielt jedoch das gleichnamige Herzogtum. Das Generalgouvernement wurde als Generalgouvernement des Herzogtums Sachsen von Dresden nach Merseburg verlegt. Der sächsische König, der aus der Gefangenschaft nach Dresden zurückkehrte, entließ seine Untertanen im herzoglichen Teil Sachsens mit salbungsvollen Worten aus ihren Verpflichtungen ihm gegenüber: "Ich soll von euch scheiden, und das Band muß getrennt werden, das durch eure treue Anhänglichkeit Mir und Meinem Hause so theuer war, und auf welches seit Jahrhunderten das Glück Meines Hauses und eurer Vor-Eltern sich gründete. Zufolge der den verbündeten Mächten ertheilten Zusage entlasse Ich euch, ihr Unterthanen und Soldaten der von Mir abgetretenen Provinzen eures Eide und eurer Pflichten gegen Mich und Mein Haus, und Ich empfehle euch, treu und gehorsam zu seyn euerm neuen Landesherrn." (I. HA Rep. 172, Bl 84 VS) König Friedrich Wilhelm IV. von Preußen hieß sie mit ebenso salbungsvollen Worten willkommen: "Durch die Schicksale der Völker nunmehr von einem Fürstenhause getrennet, dem Ihr Jahrhunderte lang mit treuer Ergebenheit angehangen, geht Ihr jetzt zu einem andern über, dem Ihr durch die befreundenden Bande der Nachbarschaft, der Sprache, der Sitten, der Religion verwandt seyd. Wenn Ihr Euch mit Schmerz von frühern, Euch werthen Verhältnissen lossagt, so ehre Ich diesen Schmerz, als dem Ernste des deutschen Gemüths geziemend, und als eine Bürgschaft, daß Ihr und Eure Kinder auch Mir und Meinem Hause mit eben solcher Treue fernerhin angehören werdet. [ ] Nur Deutschland hat gewonnen, was Preußen erworben." (I. HA Rep. 172, Nr. 286, Bl. 89 VS) Das Generalgouvernement wurde mit Inkrafttreten der Provinzialverfassung im März 1816 aufgelöst. 2. Bestandsgeschichte Von welcher Behörde die Überlieferung des Generalgouvernements übernommen wurde, ist nicht bekannt, genauso wenig der Zeitpunkt der Übernahme. Noch eine sich unter den Jahresberichten des GStA PK befindende Übersicht über "den Zustand der Reposituren" aus dem Jahre 1872 vermerkt für den Bestand des Generalgouvernements "völlig ungekannt" (GStA PK, I. HA Rep. 178 Nr. 1900, Bl. 160). Der Bestand befand sich zwar im GStA PK, die Vergabe der Repositurnummer und die Bearbeitung des Bestandes war aber noch nicht erfolgt. Erst 1923 wurden die Akten durch Staatsarchivrat Dr. Meyer als Repositur 172 aufgestellt (GStA PK, I. HA Rep. 178 Nr. 1930, Bl. 57’). Nach kriegsbedingter Auslagerung wurde der Bestand im Deutschen Zentralarchiv, Abt. Merseburg auf Karteikarten erschlossen. Ein Findbuch wurde nicht erstellt. 2012 erfolgte die Übertragung der Erschließungsinformationen in die Archivdatenbank.

The present estate of Friedrich Theodor Althoff (1839-1908), Prussian Ministerial Director in the Ministry of Culture, was given to the Prussian Secret State Archives in 1921 as a gift from the widow Marie Althoff. In 1924, 1935, 1936, 1951, 1958 and 2000 further smaller parts of the estate were transferred to the (Prussian) Secret State Archives (PK). The estate contains primarily personnel documents, comprehensive reference files from official activities, extensive official correspondence with a large number of partners, newspapers and newspaper clippings and a small partial estate of the widow Marie Althoff, mainly with her correspondence after 1908 The correspondence was filed by Althoff himself according to two types, alphabetically according to the names and professions of the senders, so that both groups (by database query) are to be searched. An additional peculiarity is that about 500 letters are enclosed with other correspondences, namely when the letter writers mainly expressed themselves about other, third parties. In these cases, the letters were not filed under the senders, but under the names of those about whom they were written. Modern distortion maintains this order, but ejects the names concerned in the respective distortion titles. (Example VI HA, Nl F. T. Althoff, No. 805 alphabetical correspondence "Kohl - Koppy" also contains in "Kollmann, Julius, Basel, 1887 - 1888 (3)" a letter by Gustav v. Schmoller about Julius Kollmann from 1884). In the course of entering the database, the individual correspondence partners in the correspondence volumes were added to the contents notes using the register. The number in brackets indicates the number of letters. For the former divisions A I and A II (today No. 1-655) there is a separate detailed analysis volume which should be consulted during research. Its contents are not part of the database, as they would have gone beyond its scope. For the complete technical processing of the magazine, which took place in 2012, the discount was re-signed according to serial numbers for the sake of simplicity. A corresponding concordance can be found at the end of the search. Distortion began in 1921 by Ludwig Dehio. Mrs. Krähe created the list of letter correspondents. In 1939 G. Wentz dispersed the correspondence. In the years 1960-1962 Renate Endler recorded the estate again, including a revision. From 1975-1976 a further revision was carried out by Holger Schenk. The following files were already missing when the still valid find book from the 1960s was compiled: A I No. 18 Academic Freedom, 1905 A I I No. 144 Criminalist Seminar, Halle, 1885 - 1896 A II No. 98 Eduard Simon, 1906-08 B No. 7 Baltzer B No. 21 Cantor B No. 28[Content unknown] B No. 69 Hermite B No. 137 Bd. 2 Netto B No. 168 Bd. 2 Schottki Bei B No. 48 Frobenius, B No. 65 Heffter, B No. 70 Heffner und B No. 169 Sturm missing the main part. The old numbers B No. 98, B No. 106 and B No. 167 are also missing, according to remarks in the find book; in the group "Correspondence Althoff's correspondence sorted by sender's profession", which is very intensively indexed, the contents of the missing pieces have also been included in the database, since their contents may be of partial interest, even if the individual letters no longer exist. These letters then bear the addition"(missing)". The following autograph of Althoff is also kept in the "Small Acquisitions" collection of the Geheimes Staatsarchiv PK: I. HA Rep. 94 Small acquisitions, No. 1711 Friedrich Althoff to an unknown person: Transmission of 4 facsimile Primaner essays of the Joachimsthalschen Gymnasium in Berlin from 1901 on the topic "The Beinstellung der Monmämäler in der Siegesallee" with Marginalien Kaiser Wilhelm II, The database was entered by Mrs. Pistiolis, the database correction, determination and addition of the runtimes on the basis of the contained notes and preparation of the foreword was done by the undersigned. With the introduction of the new tectonics in the GStA PK, the estate of Friedrich Theodor Althoff, formerly headed as I. Department Rep. 92, was incorporated into the newly formed VI. Department of Family Archives and Bequests in 2001. According to the Internet database "Kalliope, Verbundsystem Nachlässe und Autographen der Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin", another extensive part of the manuscript section of the Staatsbibliothek Preußischer Kulturbesitz is located. This section contains 23 boxes with correspondence, documents, manuscripts, photos, prints and the death mask. Further correspondence of Althoff (312 sheets) is kept in the document collection Darmstaedter (2c 1890) of the Staatsbibliothek Preußischer Kulturbesitz.

Tradition: The Großherzogliche Badische Baugewerkeschule was founded in 1878. Since 1919 it was called "Badisches Staatstechnikum" or "Badische Höhere Technische Lehranstalt (Staatstechnikum)" (1923), since 1946 "Staatstechnikum Karlsruhe", since 1963 "Staatliche Ingenieurschule Karlsruhe", since 1971 "Fachhochschule Karlsruhe - Hochschule für Technik"; in 2005 it was renamed "Hochschule Karlsruhe - Technik und Wirtschaft". In contrast to the architecture department of the Polytechnic University, the drawing examination papers of the students of construction trades were kept at the school. As far as the documents were not collected by the school administration - especially in the period after about 1970 - an extensive, largely coherent set of plans has been preserved. It was handed over to the General State Archives in 1999 together with a transfer list in Access format, and more recent work was added in 2004. In the archive, the entire holdings were signed, packaged and re-registered by the ladies Mohd, Hummel and Vogt, the list of consignments was edited and converted into 'scopeArchiv' in 2012. The variety of query options (by building type, drawing technique, etc.) was retained in 'scopeArchiv' in a field visible only to the archive staff and in the source file (Access).a few privately owned student works that came to the General State Archive with the Thomas Kellner Collection in 2006 were incorporated; the drawing portfolio of Franz Kühn for the years 1934 to 1937 is now available as a sample portfolio for all subjects at the end of the student works.Further student works, which were delivered together with files of the building department also in 2004 - among them e.g. building photographs of Black Forest farms of the excursion of 1937 -, are recorded in inventory GLA 592 Access 2004-69. Some building photographs of monuments from this convoy were probably inadvertently taken over into the general plan inventory GLA 424 K. Plans (blueprints) of the Karlsruhe City Planning Office for the redesign of the Market Square from 1974 were submitted to the City Archive. Content: The approximately 100-year-old tradition conveys the teaching methods of drawing and the architectural expectations of the time between historicism and modernism and is thus an outstanding source for the transformation of technology, architectural aesthetics and reception behaviour over the social ruptures of the 20th century. Probably the most valuable part, almost half of the total stock, is taken up by the plans from the subjects of construction survey and design; the names of the subjects changed in the process. The annual publications of the Baugewerkeschule, such as the "design of bourgeois residential buildings" by the construction students or the recording of "patriotic monuments" in the whole of Baden by the prospective trade teachers, show that the focus here was on the core of teaching at least until 1914; part of the semester and holiday work was thus published promptly in large-format volumes (cf. the incomplete series in the library of the General State Archives, Cw 8102ff, 1885-1914 and individual proof pages, together with pages from architecture and engineering textbooks, as an appendix in fonds 592 K). In the 1920s, industrial and functional buildings came to the fore. During National Socialism, the main focus of interest was on the design of housing estates, and in the cataloguing of architectural monuments almost exclusively farmhouses in the Black Forest and in Baden's Franconia region; these architectural photographs are of particular value as historical architectural sources (a photo in No. 1581 shows members of one of the 1937 field trips to take a picture of a farm). But also the registration of e.g. Karlsruhe city centre buildings, which were destroyed during and after the Second World War, or the systematic mapping of Überlingen town houses in 1935 are important and so far almost unknown architectural inventory achievements. In the post-war period, photographs of buildings appeared almost exclusively as part of general drawing lessons; interior designs were added in the 1960s. All in all, the student works provide a good insight into the "tempo" of style change and architectural convention, precisely because of their dependence on current teaching and building practice. Photographs of architectural monuments on Lake Constance by the Constance photographer German Wolf from the years around 1900 form a separate group. They are testimonies to early monuments inventory, in the context of the building photographs perhaps as a model or as material for teaching. In contrast, photographs of plans whose originals were missing - mostly montages on large cardboard boxes from the 1960/1970s - remained in the main inventory. Drawing templates and other foreign materials were summarised, plans such as photos, which had gotten between the pupils' work as teaching aids; they can now be found at the end of the collection, as far as they could not be collected as duplicates. Access database: The database of the University of Applied Sciences will continue to be maintained as it allows further access to the stock due to its sorting possibilities, but does not have the same text status as the available finding aids data. Special mention should be made of the sorting according to "object groups":Sacral buildings (1)Public buildings (2)Residential buildings (3)Agricultural buildings (4)Others (5).The encryption "Type of execution" can also be used for exhibition preparations: Technical - black-and-white1Technical - colored2Artistic - black-and-white3Artistic - colored4. For the archive personnel, text parts can be queried in the data field "internal archive remarks", so that a selection according to these criteria is also possible in 'scopArchive'. Examples are "Item group: 1 (sacral buildings)" and "Type of construction: 1 (technical, black and white)".

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.

The holdings 60 (Municipal Administration/Mairie of the City of Mainz, 1798-1814) have a complicated and eventful history of order and description. In the following, an attempt will be made to list the individual stages of this inventory in chronological order. Order of the registry in the French period (1798-1814) The archives 60/113 provide information about the administration of records of the Mainz city administration 1798-1814. The first part is a list of all files and official books created or kept since the establishment of the municipal administration, which was compiled on the 25th Prairial VIII. It also contains the civil status registers, which will not be taken into account in the following, as they are listed and described in section 50. The second part was built successively in the following years until 1814. In each year a file list of the yearly created and closed files was made. The division into two is undoubtedly a consequence of the Napoleonic administrative reform of 1800 (transition from municipal administration to Mairie). Year after year, the secretariat and the offices of the municipal administration/Mairie created a file volume on certain subjects, so that a kind of subject series register was created. At the end of the year the volumes were handed over to the "Archives" (= registry). Therefore, when the list was drawn up, only the current files of Year VIII were located in the individual offices. In addition to files, a large number of official registers were kept. They played a far greater role in the French administration than in the German administration, since they served on the one hand as the administration's most important auxiliary and finding aids, but on the other hand also reproduced contents, so that the actual subject files, in which the incoming and (initially also) outgoing letters were stored, probably only rarely had to be accessed. All incoming and outgoing letters have been registered in the official records referred to here. Among them the general register "Régistre Général" is to be mentioned first as letter (entrance) diary. A number was assigned to each incoming letter in the Secretariat. The number was noted on the received letter with the addition "R.G.". In addition, a brief summary, the sender, the date of the letter and the office to which it was assigned were recorded in the General Register. Where a reply to a letter received has been drawn up or a decision taken, its number has also been recorded in the General Register. The numbers of the "normal" letters ("lettres") were replaced by "corr." (=correspondance), those of the resolutions ("arrêtés") are marked "arr. The concepts of "lettres" and "arrêtés" are attached to the respective subject file volumes only until Vendémiaire VII/September 1798 (applies to Lettres) or until the end of Year VII beginning of Year VIII/October 1799 (applies to Arrêtés). In addition, they were recorded in fair copy in two other series of official registers also kept by the Secretariat, the Correspondence and Advisory Register. On this basis, the numbering of "lettres" and "arrêtés" already mentioned was also carried out. The letter received to which an outgoing letter referred can be seen on the one hand in the Registre Général and on the other hand in the letter received itself, on which, in addition to the 'R.G.' number, the 'Arr.-' number also appears. or "Corr." No. was noted. The Mairie continued to keep the General Register and the "répertoire", a kind of subject register, but decided not to keep the resolution and correspondence registers. This made the concepts of "lettres" and "arrêtés" the only evidence of the letters and regulations issued. In order to keep track of them, their drafts could no longer be filed in the subject file volumes together with the letters received in response to which they were initiated, but had to be organised separately. The concepts of the outgoing letters were thus numbered consecutively from September 1798 and October 1799 (see above) and formed two series in which the drafts of the "lettres" and "arrêtés" were filed chronologically and (mostly) summarised monthly. If one follows 60/113, a further change occurred with the establishment of the Mairie: The secretariat/police office and Bien Public office files are kept by the secretariat, while the financial office still seems to have its own registry. The files created and kept at the secretariat are usually stored in beige paper sheets - often printed forms that have been turned over. Until the year XI, the respective subject series file was held together with a glued-on paper strip, which was provided with the file title. They've been numbered since year X. There are about 60 subjects for the secretariat, whereby the number fluctuates, since new subjects were added from case to case or older subjects were omitted, thus there were series splits or series associations, over which 60/113 offers a good overview. The subject files of a year were most likely bundled and stored in these bundles (inscription: year) in the old registry/archive. Probably for this reason, part of the "French Archive" was only grouped together in file aprons before the new indexing. The Commissioner of the Executive Board of the Municipal Administration apparently also had his own registry. Subject files were also created for him. The files shall be numbered after the title of each file, preceded by the abbreviation "No." . Their duration often exceeds one year, often covers years VI to VIII and thus the entire term of office of the Commissioner. Also on the documents of these files one finds numbers of a general register, so that it can be assumed that the commissioner of the executive directorate had its own general register and thus its own document administration (a kind of own secretariat). The holdings also include files from the provenance of the Administrative Commission of the School Fund, which were left in the holdings because of their proximity to the city administration. In the case of these files, there was no longer a recognizable order of files or registries. The files of the negotiations of the municipal council are wrapped in blue cardboard and were apparently kept separately from the other files of the administration. Some files of the collection, especially those concerning accounting, are wrapped in light blue cardboard and have German lettering. Also the formulation of the titles of the acts indicates that they were written in Hessian time (after 1815). There is much to suggest that these were files that were needed by the city administration during the Hessian period. This, of course, required a review of the French files. At the beginning of the 20th century (around 1920?), the librarian Heinrich Heidenheimer presumably attempted to dissolve the old subject files, which had been laid out on a year-by-year basis, and to merge them according to new subject matters. From the documents which were not (or could not be?) assigned to a "large" subject, he tried to create individual files. Not affected by this reorganization were the official books, the Arrêtés and Lettres series, and (probably) 23 bundles, which only remained ordered by year. The result of this attempt at classification is documented in the old register "Französisches Archiv - Bestand 60". The bundles in which the new subjects were grouped were numbered from 1-148 (one number per subject, so several bundles could have the same number if the subject was supposed to be the same). In part, however, a number did not conceal a reference file, but rather a very thin - already mentioned - single case file containing only a few sheets or even only one printed matter. The number of this file was mostly completed with a Roman "II". At the time of the redrawing, the individual case files were often located within the beige file apron in orange, strongly acidic folders (60s?) with filler lettering. Inside the other file aprons, envelopes made of crumbled packing paper with a high acid content, which could date from around 1920, were used to structure the documents. These envelopes were often labelled with only one year and were irrelevant for the context of the file. Only summarily (without signature or numbering) are listed in the directory - as mentioned - Lettres and Arrêtés, official books, military matters, matters concerning the inhabitants, accounting (also printed matter), taxes (also printed matter), the port and schools/lessons. Eight bundles were only labeled with letters and sorted alphabetically. According to the register, these were "requests to the administration, sorted by personal names (e.g. passports)". This series, too, was first created at the beginning of the 20th century by the order works. An example of how it was done: In a bundle with the old signature 138 (138-subjects: medical police/138,1; midwives/138,2; vaccination/138,3; medicine/138,4 and 138,5) there were ONLY old file covers with the following titles and registry signatures: IX/...X/14, XI/14 : Police medicinale XI/12: Police medicinale, vaccine, Maison d'accouchement, pharmacie XII/14: Police médicinale, vaccine, accouchement XIII/14, XIV/15: Police médicinale, pharmacie, vaccine, accouchement, épidémie, épizootie, glacière 1807-1812/13, 1814/13: Police médicinale, pharmacie, vaccine, accouchement, épidémie, épizootie, enfants trouvés, glacière, quinquina The original subject files were thus dissolved according to the new subjects 138,1-138,5, the original file covers were separated. (In other cases, the file covers also remained in part of the closed file.) Where the documents on livestock epidemics, foundlings and glaciers remained is not apparent at first. Unfortunately, it must be noted that the content of the parts of the file which were among the various subjects did not always correspond to those subjects! It is probable that the "annual bundles" still found at the time of the new listing should also be dissolved. The order within these bundles was chaotic. This disorder has either already existed in the French old registry (the disordered documents would then never have been assigned to a subject file...) or has arisen from the attempts of archivists to organize them. Or both "procedures" come together. The main subjects in the unresolved annual bundles were: "Police civile en générale", "Affaires mixtes", "Certificat, renseignements sur des individus, "Pièces à communiquer", "Publication ...". These are therefore precisely those subjects which can hardly be assigned to other "large" subjects and which were probably not of great importance for the administration at the time either, so that no great attention and working time will have been devoted to the sorting of these documents. It is likely that archivists wanted to use these documents to create the alphabetical series "Requests to the administration, sorted by personal names (e.g. passports)". Ordnungs- und Verzeichnungsarbeiten Heiner Stauder (1991-1995) Heiner Stauder began in 1991 with the order and indexing of the official book series. After the completion of this work, the drawing of the militaria was started. Various attempts at order and sorting (registration of all numbers of the Registre Général; dissolution of the Lettres and Arrêtés series and assignment to the corresponding letters received; dissolution of individual subject series, including "service militaire", "police militaire", "affaires militaires"; formation of individual case files for submission) proved to be impracticable. The listing of the "Militaria" was interrupted in order to prefer the listing to the "Medicinalia" due to user requests. The following signatures were assigned: 001-136: Amtsbücher 150-186: Militaria 201-215: Bürgerannahmen (They were arranged alphabetically by Mr. Tautorat around 1991/92 and then entered in a card index of names, which is located in the finding aid cabinet of the user room). 300-349: Documents and series, mainly health and poor affairs concerning 350-508: "arrêtés"; 509-703: "lettres"; the no. 350-703 were recorded by Mr. Jung in autumn 1995. The development of a printed matter collection for the French period according to the model of the Landesherrlichen Verordnungssammlung (LVO) was started by leaving only one copy of printed ordinances or news, as far as they were present several times in the file volume, in the file. The rest have been separated. The documents of the Mainzer Veteranenverein found in the "French Archive" were spun off and assigned to the corresponding estate. Mr. Stauder also began with the separation of individual documents, which were only to be assigned to a file bundle after completion of the recording, and with the dissolution of the old FA60 bundles according to subject matter. The author has also continued his recording of subtitles and alto and registry signatures (see below). After the described experiences and on the basis of the peculiarities of the found stock, the author renounced to form (new) series - however it may have been - or to restore the old registry order - also only in rudimentary form. Instead, a numerus currens distortion was performed on the basis of the found condition. The merging of units that belonged together in terms of content thus took place only after the title listings had been completed - on the basis of the classification and the three - very detailed - indices. The subject file bundles listed in the old directory FA 60 were dissolved, since the file aprons contained a wide variety of subjects, which were often only roughly summarized under one catchword. The bundles were reviewed, units with related contents within the bundles - some of them still in the original file covers of the registry - were left together and newly recorded (the old archive signature is of course always indicated). The still unrecorded militaria had already been pre-ordered by Mr. Stauder and reassembled according to the facts. The signatures 269-273 and 284-285 were made by him, left so by me and listed. Individual documents within the various bundles, which differed completely in content from the otherwise found subjects, were first separated and, after completion of the indexing process, added to the archives to which they fitted in terms of content. The old small files, the individual files mentioned above, were left as they were and re-inserted. The bundles, which were only marked with a year (probably part of the original old registration), were also dissolved according to subject matter. Recognisable units (e.g. through labelled file envelopes) were of course retained. If possible, documents that had not been (pre-)sorted were either newly created according to subject (e.g. Militaria, Year VI) or first separated and, after completion of the indexing, added to suitable archival records. In total, the stock now comprises 60 1308 units of description or serial numbers. The last current number is 1319. The numbers 140-148, 882 and 944 were not assigned. Subtitles and registry signatures Subtitles are located in brackets below the titles of the files I have assigned. They are usually the original French title(s) of the subject file(s) found on an old envelope within the newly recorded archives. It is only indicated if there is such an original envelope in the file and if the title also matches the content of the documents it contains. Due to the old order work before 1991, the original connections were torn apart - as described above - so that the original file covers only remained in part of the original files, were separated or reappeared in completely different contexts. If it was clearly visible that only part of the original subject file was present in or near the original file cover, only the applicable part of the original file title is also indicated as a subtitle. On the original file covers, in most cases the year and the number from the list of subject series registries were indicated in addition to the file title (for example as year "an 14", as number "21", as title "Corps de metier"). As far as such a file cover was available and fitted to the content or partial content of the newly recorded archive, this registry signature was indicated as follows: XIV/21 (XIV for the year 14 of the French Republic, 21 for the number from 60/113). For years VI to IX, the year and the "heading" under which the subject in 60/113 is to be found have been indicated, where recognisable. The files more frequently contained a large number of documents from the Electoral period. If it was evident that these were pre-files to the events of the French period, they were left in the archives. If no connection was discernible, the events were passed on to Dr. Dobras for classification in electoral holdings. Nachprovenienzen The Lettres series does not end with the end of French rule in Mainz and the handover of the town to German troops on 4 May 1814, but continues until the end of 1814. For this reason, all files of the year 1814 under Lord Mayor Freiherr von Jungenfeld were left in this inventory, since the registry was at least partly continued for so long according to the French model. The following volumes with clear provenance or post-provenance Großherzogliche Bürgermeisterei were found in the holdings and were assigned to the holdings 70 (Hessisches Archiv): (order: Altsign. title runtime new signature) - ?

Administrative history: In article 93 of the constitution of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, published on 28.9.1860 (Hamb.VO, p.79), it had been determined that the tradesmen should elect a committee for the promotion of the business enterprise. The details should be determined by law. This edition fulfilled the Gewerbegesetz of 7.11.1864 (Hamb.VO, p.161). On the basis of this law, an interim trade committee consisting of 15 members was initially set up, which met for its constituent meeting on 27.1.1865. Its members had been elected five each by the elders of the former guild trades (offices), by the Senate and by the citizens. The committee in turn sent five members as representatives of the trades to the citizenship, where they replaced the deputies departing by law from the former older people. Its task was to prepare the conditions for the future final committee. Soon the interim trade committee presented a bill, which was not approved by the Senate. After long negotiations between senate and citizenship the "Gesetz betr. die Gewerbekammer" (Hamb.Ges.Slg.I, p.119) could finally be published on 18.12.1872. Herewith the committee required by the constitution received the designation "Chamber of Commerce". He was subject to the administrative department for trade and commerce (§ 1). Like its provisional predecessor, the Trade Chamber also consisted of 15 members, five of whom were seconded to the citizenship. Only those tradesmen were to be represented in the Chamber of Commerce who operated their business within the boundaries of the then Hamburg Free Port Area, including the Zollverein defeat. For the purpose of the election, the trades were divided into 15 groups, each of which had to elect a representative, for a period of five years. Three of the members should resign each year. Every self-employed businessman who had the right to participate in the elections for citizenship was entitled to vote and eligible for election. Each year, the members of the Chamber elected a chairman and his deputy from among their number. The Chamber's duties, as outlined in § 11 of the Act, included representing the interests of Hamburg trade, providing expert opinions in trade matters for the Senate, the courts and private individuals, and also participating in the administration of commercial schools. The costs of the Chamber's business operations were borne by the State Treasury. The first elections to the trade chamber took place after preparation by the interim trade committee on 31.3.1875. On 21.4.1875 the newly elected chamber met for its constituent meeting and took over the business and files of the interim committee, which dissolved at the same time. The Reichsgesetz of 26.7.1897 (RGBl., p.665) brought about drastic changes to the Gewerbeordnung. Section 105 of the new Rules of Procedure stipulated that chambers of craftsmen were to be set up to represent the interests of the crafts of their district. § 103q left it to the Land central authorities to determine that existing institutions could be entrusted with the exercise of the rights and duties of the Chamber of Crafts. The new law was gradually enacted by imperial decrees. The provisions on the formation of chambers of crafts entered into force on 1.4.1900 through the VO of 12.5.1900 (RGBl., p.127). In accordance with this, the Senate issued the notice of 2.4.1900 (Official Gazette, p. 487), which transferred the rights and duties of a Chamber of Crafts to the Chamber of Commerce for the entire territory of Hamburg. The requirements of the new trade regulations now also required a reorganisation of the Trade Chamber Act. The focus was on the question of representation of the many new industrial companies that have emerged in recent decades. While a minority of large industrialists were in favour of joining the Chamber of Commerce, the majority of smaller manufacturers decided to remain in the Chamber of Commerce. The area of competence of the Chamber also urgently needed to be revised. Section 3 of the old law had defined the free port area as the scope of the business area, which, however, had shrunk considerably as a result of the customs connection on 15 October 1888. Therefore, the chamber elections were tacitly held for all those tradesmen who were resident in the urban area and in the suburbs. After long negotiations the "Act on the Chamber of Commerce" of 4.10.1907 (Official Gazette p.589) was finally passed. From now on, the chamber was divided into a craft department and an industrial department, each with 12 members. The jurisdiction extended over the entire territory of Hamburg. The members were to be elected for a term of six years. At the end of each year, four members (2 each from each department) resigned. Replacement elections were held for members who resigned early. The Chamber sent representatives from among its members to the Deputation for Trade, Shipping and Industry, to the Advisory Authority for Customs, to the Administration of Trade Education and to the Supervisory Authority for Guilds. Parallel to the reorganization of the Chamber of Commerce, an Industrial Commission was formed at the Chamber of Commerce (Official Gazette 1907 p.600). The "Bekanntmachung betr. die Errichtung der Gewerbekammer und die Industriekommission der Handelskammer" of 23.12. 1907 (Official Gazette p.757) brought both changes into force on 1.1.1908. This solution was a compromise between the two conflicting aspirations in industry circles which emerged during the long negotiations. The new version of the Trade Chamber Act of 20.11.1922 (HGVBl. p.645) essentially brought changes in the election procedure, which were partly due to the discontinuation of Hamburg citizenship. The number of members for trade and industry was increased to 20 each. The election continued for six years, but with the proviso that half of the members should resign every three years. An additional important innovation was the raising of funds for the Chamber, which had previously been paid for from the State Treasury. Now § 27 of the law gave the possibility to raise a contribution graduated after the height of the taxable conversion. The new elections were to be held within 3 months of the promulgation of the law. The new law was brought into force by the announcement of 20.11.1922 (HGVBl. S.657) on 23.11.1922. In the following years, only minor changes were made to the law in force: on 4 June 1924 (HGVBl. p. 375), on 7 February 1927 (HGVBl. p. 84), on 6 April 1927 (HGVBl. p. 173) and most recently by the "Third Ordinance on the Implementation of the Act on the Structure of Administration" of 30 March 1928 (HGVBl. p. 136). A new task fell to the trade chamber with effect from 1.4.1930 by the mechanism and establishment of the handicraft roll with regulations of the Reich Minister of Economics of 25.4.1929 (RGBl. I S.87) and of 4.3.1930 (RGBl. I S.35). The Chambers of Crafts (Gewerbekammern) were required to keep a register of all craftsmen who were engaged in a standing trade on their own. The National Socialist seizure of power brought a complete break in the history of the trade chamber. On 31.5.1933 (Senate Protocol I 1933, p.272), the Senate approved a joint motion of the Chamber of Commerce and the Chamber of Commerce of 18.5.1933 to form an "Industry Committee" at the Chamber of Commerce consisting of representatives of both chambers. However, this state of affairs was only of short duration, because on 26.1.1934 (Senate Protocol p.27 and printed matter no.1) the Senate enacted the "Law on the Formation of a Unified Industrial Division at the Chamber of Commerce". The Chamber of Commerce took over the sole representation of Hamburg's industry after the dissolution of the industrial department of the Chamber of Commerce. The Reich legislation now brought about drastic changes: On 29.11.1933 the "Gesetz über den vorläufigen Aufbau des deutschen Handwerks" (RGBl. I p. 1015) was passed with the three implementing ordinances of 15.6.1934 (RGBl.I p.493) and 18.1.1935 (RGBl.I p.14 and p.15). The 2nd regulation of 18.1.1935 determined in § 1 the management of the chambers of crafts according to the Führergrundsatz. The Reich Minister of Economics was in charge of supervision. The 3rd Ordinance of 18.1.1935 tightened up the provisions concerning the register of craftsmen, in which from then on only self-employed persons who had also passed the master craftsman's examination were entered. Only those who were entered in the trade register were allowed to operate an independent trade as a standing trade. The management of the handicraft register was transferred to the trade chamber by the ordinance of the senate of 26.4.1935 (HGVBl. p.119). The Gewerbekammer ceased to exist as a result of the "Gesetz zur Aufhebung des Gesetzes über die Gewerbekammer" in the form of an announcement of the Reich Governor dated 30.9.1936 (HGVBl. p.227) with effect from 1.10.1936. It was replaced by the new Chamber of Crafts. Delivery and order The files of the Chamber of Commerce were delivered in four deliveries (1957,1965,1976) from the Hamburg Chamber of Crafts to the State Archives. During a preliminary examination in 1963, mainly journeyman and master craftsman examination files were collected, except for examples, because the Chamber of Crafts has master craftsman directories with information on the examination date. The file size before the beginning of the order work was approx. 13 linear metres. After cassation of already printed annual reports, concepts, cash audit cases and duplicate documents, the volume now amounts to 11.8 linear metres of shelving. The file classification used by the Chamber of Commerce proved to be unusable because of its group designations, which were mostly too general, and was not adopted. The reorganization was based on a classification according to factual aspects with partial reference to the earlier scheme - as far as possible and necessary for understanding the connections. The demarcation of the Gewerbekammer from the Handwerkskammer resulted from the design of the Handwerkvertretung in the National Socialist period. With 1.10.1936, the effective date of the new legislation, the existence of the Chamber of Commerce ends. The files of the supervisory authority for the guilds also delivered by the Chamber of Crafts form an independent collection (376-15). July 1978 Inventory description: The Hamburg Constitution of 28.09.1860 stipulated that tradesmen should elect a committee to promote the trade. A law should determine the details. The Trade Act of 1864 created the basis for the establishment of an interim trade committee at the beginning of 1865 to prepare a final committee. It was not until the end of 1872 that a Trade Chamber Act was published, with the result that the committee required by the Constitution was given the designation Trade Chamber. The Chamber of Commerce consisted of 15 members and was subordinate to the Administrative Department for Trade and Commerce. The tasks of the Chamber of Commerce included representing the interests of Hamburg's trade, providing expert opinions on trade matters for the Senate, courts and private individuals, and participating in the administration of commercial schools. Changes in the trade regulations led to the Senate of the Chamber of Commerce in 1900 also transferring the rights and duties of a Chamber of Crafts. The trade chamber law of 04.10.1907 divided this into a crafts department and an industrial department. The NS era brought drastic changes. In 1934 the Chamber of Commerce took over the sole representation of the Hamburg industry after the dissolution of the industrial department of the Chamber of Commerce. With effect from 01.10.1936 the activity of the trade chamber ended. It was replaced by the new Chamber of Crafts. The order comprises documents on the following areas of activity of the Chamber of Commerce: Internal affairs of the Chamber (organisation, elections, reporting), participation of the Chamber in authorities and administrations, relations with other organisations and institutions, conferences, economic promotion, trade regulations and labour law, training and examination, insurance, job creation, market economy, transport, taxation and customs, money and credit, calibration, administration of justice, construction, health, sport and statistics.
