Corps History: The Corps was established according to the mobilization plan in August 1914 and disbanded during the demobilization in 1918. At the beginning of the war, the corps was subordinated to the 7th Army and divided into two reserve divisions (26th and 28th reserve divisions). During the war it was used only on the western theater of war. The structure of the corps staffs was the same everywhere at the beginning of the war. The Commanding General was assisted by a Chief of the General Staff as co-responsible advisor and superior of all organs of the Staff. The staffs were divided into the General Staff Division I (I a leadership, I b rear services, I c enemy position), Adjutantur II (II a officer's personnel, II b personal service at the General, II c team substitute and horse affairs), Feldjustiz III, Intendantur- und Kassenwesen IV a, Sanitätswesen IV b, Veterinärwesen IV c, Militärseelsorge IV d, Feldpost, Kommandant des Hauptquartiers und Feldgendarmerie. The commanding generals of the XIV Reserve Corps during the war were: General of Artillery Richard von Schubert02.08.1914 to 13.09.1914, Lieutenant General Hermann von Stein14.09.1914 to 28.10.1916, Lieutenant General Georg Fuchs 28.10.1916 to 11.03.1917,Lieutenant General Otto von Moser11.03.1917 to 07.02.1918,Lieutenant General Arthur von Lindequist08.02.1918 to 14.06.1918,Lieutenant General Richard Wellmann15.06.1918 to 23.08.1918,General der Infanterie Kurt von Morgen24.08.1918 bis zur Demobilmachung..In the Free State of Baden the new formation of the Baden People's Army began on 13 January 1919 with the acceptance of volunteers. As a reaction to the so-called "Spartacus Uprising" in February 1919, the Reich and Badische Volksregierung had further voluntary associations set up at all units in addition to the existing voluntary formations. Inventory history: After the end of the war, the files remained with the General Command of the XIV Army Corps. From January 1920, the establishment of an archive of the XIV Army Corps was begun, in which the archives of the settlement agencies were brought together. In autumn 1920 the corps archive moved to the infantry barracks in Heilbronn. From January 1921, the Corps Archives entered the portfolio of the Reich Ministry of the Interior under the name Aktenverwaltung XIV, before being incorporated into the Reichsarchiv in Potsdam as the Heilbronn archive branch on April 1, 1921. As a result of the merger of the Heilbronn and Stuttgart branches of the Reich Archives, the holdings were transferred to Stuttgart in 1924. The Württembergische Archivdirektion, which took over the administration of the holdings of the Army Archives Stuttgart after the end of the Second World War, handed over the XIV Army Corps to the General State Archives Karlsruhe in the years 1947 to 1949. A very detailed history of the holdings is contained in the foreword of the Deputy General Command of the XIV Army Corps (holdings 456 F 8). 848 fascicles with a circumference of 21.25 linear metres are included in the holdings.
