Contents and scope The collection contains files, official books and documents of the Municipality of Worms for the period 1815 - 1945, with a focus on the period from the end of the 19th century to the 1920s, plus a few pieces with longer durations, minus the areas whose documents are stored in the archives in the 11th registration file 12th registry office 13th registry office 12th registry office 12th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office 13th registry office Police Directorate 14. Commercial Court 15. Food Office 16. Food, Economic and Agricultural Office 17. Housing Office 18. Building Code Office 20. Cultural institutes, which, due to the quantity of material received and the fact that they are separated from the main stock, have been left as independent departments and some of them are already listed. In addition, plans for municipal and former municipal buildings of the period from around 1900 onwards are stored in the planning chamber of Amt 60.2 Bauamt-Hochbau. Further material still in stock at the offices is not known at present. The file envelopes usually carried (and carry, unless renewal was necessary due to poor condition) imprints or writings which they assigned to the (Lord) Mayor or the Mayor's Office, in the 1920s - 1940s also to the city administration. Only rarely do special municipal offices appear, namely - Stadtbauamt (approx. 70 files, sometimes factually and temporally parallel to those of the Lord Mayor, (especially in the case of files concerning Worms monuments), with departmental and section information that points to a different registration plan, - Versicherungs-/Fürsorge-/Wohlfahrts- und Jugendamt, Hessischer Bezirksfürsorgeverband Stadt Worms (changing names and combinations, approx. The files available here are thus likely to be the only remains of the registries of the offices mentioned, whereby the losses must have been enormous especially at the first two offices and presumably occurred only after 1945 due to the destruction of files without consulting the City Archives. Also files of the police office / police administration were found in approx. 25 cases in the stock and left in this connection, furthermore quite sporadically also further offices, whose delivery is good in the city archives (range of the Abt. 11 - 20, see above). The district office of Worms appears several times (especially in the files concerning economic concessions) as a preliminary provenance. TWO. The holdings were taken over by the City Archives around 1900 with a focus on the 1920s, but there are no individual records of this. On the file skirts, in which it was stored standing up to distortion, the delivery layers A, B, C, D and occasionally E were verifiable. In addition there was a larger delivery of the public utilities in 2002 (concerning the tram) as well as some files, which were delivered afterwards by municipal offices. In the course of the listing, the dissolved departments 64 (Scholarship Foundation Cornelius Heyl), 65 (White Scholarship Fund) as well as individual pieces from department 6, among them the documents of the 20th century previously kept as department 6 U, were integrated into department 5. Departments 3 (minutes of the 19th and 20th centuries) and 4 (invoices of the 19th and 20th centuries) had already been dissolved and assigned to Dept. 5 according to their period of affiliation, thus achieving the same status as Departments 1 and 2. For layer A there is a typewritten overview produced in the archives (now abbot 206 Old finding aids no. 4), which shows that abbot 5 A also contained files of the time of municipality (1792 - 1813), which are now integrated into abbot 2. The files lasted until about the middle of the 19th century and were arranged according to the registration plan for the Grand Ducal Mayors of Hesse of 1837 (original plan in Dept. 13 No. 1019). For stratum B, which comprised files from 1792 to 1906, mainly from the second half of the 19th century, there is a similar overview in Dept. 206 No. 4, also according to the order of the 1837 registry plan. There is also a handwritten register, which was apparently drawn up in one go and probably soon after 1906 (Dept. 206 No. 11). This list differs from the typewritten list mainly in that it contains a considerable number of files which are missing from the more recent list, only partially reappeared in the new list and must therefore have been cashed in or lost in the meantime. It also contains handwritten supplements of the archive employees Mrs. Sauerwein (in service until 1986) concerning files, which, for unknown reasons, had not been mentioned in the old register, had meanwhile appeared and been incorporated into the inventory, as well as a loose note of archive director Reuter with notes to the layers A, B and C. Also to layer C, which was formed from files of the time mostly after approx. 1906 - 1931, an old handwritten directory is available (Dept. 206 No. 12). It corresponds to the registration plan for the Großherzoglich Hessischen Bürgermeistereien of 1908, although it does not show sections below the departments marked with Roman numerals, but only consecutive numbering. This type of signing can also be found in part on the subsequent files up to 1945; a draft file plan with decimal classification (Dept. 5 No. 6631) submitted in 1932 has left no traces. There was no revision or machine transcription here, but there are more recent handwritten supplements by various hands. There are no directories for layers D and E, smaller deliveries. III. losses and cassation Due to the bombing raid of 21.02.1945 "primarily the loss of the stocks bricked up in several storeys in the Cornelianum was to be deplored, whereby above all considerable parts of the younger files of the city administration were lost. The exact extent of the loss of archival records, which may have been about 30 to 50 percent in the case of the more recent files, can hardly be determined with certainty" (Bönnen, Stadtarchiv, p. 22). In view of this and the losses - probably to be separated from it - noted above at layer B, any further cassation by the city archives was refrained from. The period of the densest file tradition extends from the end of the 19th to the 1920s. IV. Condition and storage The files stored in bundles and standing at the beginning of the indexing process, as well as the books, were, as far as possible, transferred to archive cartons in the usual manner. In the case of the tram files taken over from the Stadtwerke in 2002, the unusual condition that the original files, loosely laid out in file covers, were all put in standing files had to be reversed. Otherwise, stand-up files, folders or even thread-stitching appeared only sporadically. The 19th and 20th century invoices, the last part of the inventory, are only partially recorded at present (May 2004) and will continue to be stored in two rooms in the attic of the office building in Adenauerring due to their size and rare use. An archive box with the inscription "Schimmelbefall" contains the few affected pieces of the generally well-preserved stock (box no. 1140). V. Finding aids and other finding aids The inventory was recorded predominantly on index cards on the basis of the order by departments and with occasional deviations in the sections in accordance with the 1908 registry plan, and since 1992 has been stored in the PC (F

History of the Inventor: Establishment of an office on 12 February 1919 for the processing of the duties assigned to the Reich President by the Constitution as head of state, at the same time official liaison office between the Reich President and the Reich and state authorities; transfer of the powers of the Reich President to the "Reich Chancellor and Führer" Adolf Hitler by the law on the head of state of 1 August 1934; retention of the office of the Reich President and renaming of the office to Präsidialkanzlei by ordinance of 4 September 1934. Inventory description: Inventory history In the 1930s, the office of the Reich President regularly handed over so-called "Weglegesachen" to the Reich Archives, for example in April 1932 and March/April 1935. However, the registry, which was still ready for handing over in 1944, with processes up to 1934, no longer reached the Reich Archives. In 1944, the archives already kept in the Reichsarchiv Potsdam were transferred to the galleries of Staßfurt and Schönebeck a.d.Elbe. The office of the presidential chancellery and the current registry were maintained at the end of the war in Kleßheim Castle near Salzburg. In 1942/1943 Schloss Kleßheim had been lavishly refurbished as the guest house of the presidential chancellery and the Führer for special purposes. After the capitulation of the German Reich and the occupation by the Allies, the archive holdings fell into their hands. For the files of the presidential chancellery, this meant, in accordance with the territorial division of the occupation zones, that the documents from the tunnels in Staßfurt and Schönebeck a.d.Elbe were largely transported to the USSR, and that the service records at Schloss Kleßheim were under American administration. During the Berlin blockade of 1948/49, the ministerial holdings subsequently brought together in the western sectors of Berlin were transferred to Whaddon Hall in Buckinghamshire and jointly administered by the Foreign Office of the United Kingdom and the American State Department. File returns from the Soviet Union to the GDR began in the mid-1950s. As part of the most extensive restitution campaign, the files of the Presidential Chancellery were transferred to the German Central Archive Potsdam (DZA) in 1959 and stored here under the signature 06.01. The holdings were supplemented in 1963 by further additions that had previously been assigned to the Reich Chancellery. At the same time, the files from American and English administration were transferred from the archive in Whaddon Hall to the Federal Archives in Koblenz. The inventory signature was R 54. After the unification of the two German states and the takeover of the Central State Archives of the GDR (ZStA) by the Federal Archives, the partial inventories were merged and are now stored in Berlin with the inventory signature R 601. 2,536 transactions from the NS archive of the MfS were incorporated during the current processing, the third comprehensive addition. After the repatriation of the files from the Soviet Union in the second half of the 1950s, the MfS also took over documents in order to expand and build up a personal collection for "operative" purposes. As a consequence, the concentration on individual persons, i.e. the person-related filing, meant the destruction of the historical context in which the tradition originated, as files and processes were torn apart or reformed. In autumn 1989 the archive came under the responsibility of the Ministry of the Interior of the GDR (MdI) and thus of the Central State Archive of the GDR. After its transfer to the Federal Archives and its provisional use in the 1990s, comprehensive IT-supported indexing began in 2001. At the Centre for the Preservation of Historical Documentary Collections, formerly the Central State Archives Special Archive Moscow, there are still 53 file units from the period 1921-1944 as Fund 1413 in the Centre for the Preservation of Historical Documentary Collections. These are "...above all files on the awarding of the Ostmark Medal (12 volumes, 1938 - 1943), Police Service Award (3 volumes, 1938 - 1943), and the.., 1942) and other awards (4 vols.), among others to railway workers in the Eastern territories, furthermore individual political reports (2 vols., 1935 - 1937) and documents on the representation at the London Disarmament Conference (1933), the discontinuation of proceedings for maltreatment of prisoners (1935 - 1936), racial and population policy (1935 - 1936) as well as a list of employees (1942 - 1943)". In the course of processing, the inventory was supplemented by files that had been proposed for cassation at an earlier date, but were returned to the inventory due to requests for use. These are files from Department B (Domestic Policy), Title XV, support given by the Reich President of Hindenburg to corporations and individuals, but above all for the purpose of assuming honorary sponsorships - inventory adjustments between the holdings R 43 Reich Chancellery, R 1501 Reich Ministry of the Interior and with the Central Party Archives of the SED The volumes with the previous signatures 1499 to 1502 were the provenance adjutant of the Wehrmacht to the Führer and Reich Chancellor. It was handed over to the Department of Military Archives in Freiburg/ Breisgau and assigned to the holdings RW 8.

The 1,213 volumes of files were broken down by administrative structure and provisionally recorded. In 1967 the provisional indexing took place in the Federal Archives in Koblenz and in 1981 the submission of a finding aid book to the 241 volumes under the stock signature R 54. After the consolidation of the partial stocks from Potsdam and Koblenz a complete finding aid book was submitted in 1998. At the end of 2008, the database-supported revision of the finding aid book and the incorporation of 2538 files with the provenance Presidential Chancellery from the NS archive of the MfS began. The present archival records are composed of files in their original order of origin, partly with the original file covers and in the predominant number of individual folders comprising only a few sheets. The stock grew from 1,581 files by 933 signatures to a total of 2,547 files. The majority of these are personal transactions such as appointments and dismissals of civil servants and awards of orders. However, it was possible to supplement the volume series with two fact files from the years 1926 and 1927 both chronologically and verifiably on the basis of the diary numbers with volumes 8 and 9. The five-volume series in connection with Paul von Hindenburg's honorary membership is a complete complement. The current processing, including classification, was based on the registry order already used in the previous finding aid: Department A (Internal Affairs) Department B (Internal Policy) Department C (Foreign Policy) Department D (Military Policy) Department E (Not documented) Department O (Chancellery of the Order) Citation BArch R 601/1...

History of Tradition The history of the Presidential Department The history of the Prussian government was divided into three or four departments, namely the Presidential Department (Department P), Administration (Department I) and Tax and Treasury (Department II). In the tradition of the presidential department two registry layers could be determined. The first layer distinguished between general files and special files with consecutive numbering. The files of this first layer were transferred to the file plan of the second layer, which was used since about 1905. The structure of the second layer represented the last state of order of the presidential registry. It consisted of 14 main groups, which roughly reflected the departments existing since 1852. Personnel files formed an additional main group. The respective main groups were marked with Roman numerals from I to XIV, the upper groups with capital letters. Only the E group, authorities and officials, in the main group I, sovereignty, was further subdivided. These bullet points are preceded by lower case letters. Within the main groups, counting was started from the beginning. The repertory of authorities in the presidential registry was designed for growth in the individual main groups, i.e. a number range was usually reserved within a main group of each upper group. From 1 January 1932, the administration of the general administration, the administration of the health service, the building construction, the interior and the district administration as well as some special areas was converted to the uniform file plan of the Prussian administration. This was based on decimal classification and replaced the thread-stitched files with mechanical standing files. In the presidential registry, however, the files were at least partially continued according to the old file plan. The repertory of the authorities contains notes on which files should be transferred from the current registry to the so-called ground registry, i.e. to the old registry, and which should be transferred to the archive. Some files contain the word "destroyed". However, these indications do not provide reliable information about the actual fate of the files. A reference to the transfer of the documents to the standing registry was found with some file titles (especially with personnel files). In various cases, files from other sections or departments or from previous authorities were included in the presidential files as previous files. Reference is made above all to the written material of the Royal Prussian Commissarius (cf. fonds Ho 231). Contents and Evaluation Principles of Registration Polish archivist Beata Waclawik from the Allenstein State Archives worked her way into the Prussian registry and file system within the framework of a scholarship from the Volkswagen Foundation from 20.4 to 15.8.1990. During her work at the Sigmaringen State Archives, she began the indexing of the presidential department. Their distortion performance flowed into the present repertory in revised form. When the inventory was recorded, the file references listed in the repertory of authorities were used as the basis for the recording. Nearly all file covers were also provided with a file subject, which largely coincided with that in the repertory. The file title was compared with the file content and, if necessary, modified and normalized. In various cases, files from other sections or departments or from previous authorities were included in the presidential files as previous files. If these were listed in the repertories of the sections and not marked with registration signatures of the presidential department, they were returned to the corresponding section. However, if they were integrated into the registration scheme of the Presidential Department, they remained there, even though they had not experienced any further growth in the Presidential Department. Laws and ordinances were not thrown out in principle. Maps and plans, as long as they were not integrated into the fascicle, were removed for conservation reasons and incorporated into the map selection. Areas and places that were no longer on German Reich territory after 1918 were identified, as far as possible, on the basis of their administrative affiliation when the file was created. The signing was done with the archival development program Midosa 95 in the years 1998 to 2000 by the undersigned. Holger Fleischer completed the final EDP work. The present stock comprises 16.1 linear metres (in unpackaged condition) and 895 units of registration, beginning with numbers 32 to 926. The numbers 1 to 31 are listed in stock Ho 235 T 2.
