History of the authorities: With the introduction of the ministerial constitution in the Württemberg state administration, the former old Württemberg state colleges and deputations were transformed into departments by the organisational manifesto of 18 March 1806. As royal colleges they each received a director as chief. As early as 1807, the name "Kollegium" was replaced by the name "Departement" and all internal administration was brought together in one department, all of which was under the direct supervision and direction of the Minister of the Interior. The highest office was formed by a board of directors under the presidency of the minister, which was responsible for "the most null and void affairs of public administration" (Wintterlin Vol. 1 p. 247). The Ministry consisted of the Minister, the President of the Supreme Government, the Directors of the Departments and the oldest Councils. All departments dealt with the business in collegial consultation and were individually referred to as:I. Oberregierungskollegium mit den Unterdepartements1. Department of Criminal Investigation2. Police Department3. OberlehendepartementII OberlandesökonomiekollegiumIII Straßen-, Brücken- und WasserbaudepartementIV. Medical DepartmentIn 1811, the so-called office system was introduced to speed up the course of business. In place of a Directorate General, King Frederick decided, following the example of other states, to order a Council of State, another body to advise on comprehensive matters dealt with by one or more departments at the same time. Now the collegial departments were divided into various smaller ministerial departments - known as sections - which at the same time acted as central authorities for the whole country. There was no authority between the minister and the senior officials during this time. The Department of Home Affairs included:1. the Section of Internal Administration (previously the subdepartments of the Oberregierungskollegium)2. the Section of Internal Administration (previously the subdepartments of the Oberregierungskollegium). The section of the feud3. The Medical Section4. The Section of Roads, Bridges and Hydraulic Engineering5. and 6. The Sections of Municipal Administration and Accounting, which took the place of the Oberlandesökonomiekollegiums, were merged into one Section of Municipal Administration in 1812.According to § 31 of the Organizational Edict of 18 November 1817, the Ministry of the Interior was assigned a college called "Oberregierung" (Upper Government), which existed until 1917, to deal with the affairs requiring collegial consultation. In 1817, the competence of the Interior Administration was extended by the incorporation of the Church and School System, which was separated from the Ministry of the Interior only by decree of 28 October 1849 and established as an independent Ministry as the Department of Church and School System. Until 1918 it was worded in such a way that first of all the rapporteurs were designated and then their business was listed. The first draft of a new business division (1918/19), which was to be subdivided into business divisions, initially provided for eight business divisions. By order of the Ministry of the Interior of 14 October 1922 No. V 7171 (Bü 284), the new business division divided into twelve business circles (I - XII) finally came into force. The business circles formed the basis for the "processing plan" (later business distribution plan), which was created for the first time. He was also responsible for the allocation of files to the officials responsible for handling business on the basis of the processing plan. In the Fifth Organizational Edict of 18 November 1817, the business of the Chancellery Director was described in more detail. His duties initially included only the law firm's business, i.e. monitoring the entire course of business and keeping and countersigning the registers at meetings. He was also in charge of the supervision of the Accounting Chamber integrated into the firm. In the business distributor of 1878 the most important tasks of the later business part I, the execution of the civil service law and the budgeting, are already listed beside the tasks of the Kanzleidirektor. History of the holdings: According to the Service Regulations for the Upper Government of 21 December 1817 and the oath form for the ministerial registrars, files, diaries and registers (directorates) kept in alphabetical order had to be kept at the ministerial registry. In addition, two other aids were available, an alphabetical list of the names of the persons about whom files had been created at the Ministry, and an "Index normalis" for the period 1817 - 1868 (with supplements from the years 1875, 1876). The latter is an alphabetical list of the files in the registry which contained precedents. Another precedent book was created as a continuation of 1868 by Kanzleirat Zeyer. It differs from the "Index normalis" created by Kanzleirat Euting in that it does not only contain precedent traps. The "Index normalis" is arranged purely alphabetically, as well as the Prejudicial Book, but is subdivided according to the material according to the registration plan introduced by Zeyer. The directorate was nevertheless retained and reestablished in 1875. Until 1891, the relevant rubric was added to each entry, then the files were marked with the technical and box signature. Registratur Sibert introduced the following improvements in 1895: The classification system that emerged at the beginning of the 19th century proved to be impractical and outdated over the course of time due to the arbitrary choice of catchwords. Sibert reworked the individual categories and in 1896 carried out extensive Aken excretions. With the draft of a new classification order (registration plan) approved on September 24, 1896, Sibert retained the previous order. However, individual items of a keyword were grouped under one heading, so that the number of main headings was reduced from 167 to 88. In May 1900, Sibert established a new directorate, and on January 1, 1912, three registry departments were formed at the Ministerial Registrar's Office. The basis for the division of the three registry departments was formed by six registry land registers (Directories), which were divided between the three departments as follows:Registries Department I General Repertory Volume I Special Directorate Volume I Special Directorate Volume I General Repertory Volume I Special Directorate Volume III General Repertory Volume II Special Directorate Volume IVDThe three general Directories were divided according to the alphabetical order of the main categories, the three Special Directories according to the alphabetical order of the higher offices, the three Special Directories according to the alphabetical order of the higher offices, and the three Special Directories according to the alphabetical order of the higher offices. Following the division of the Ministry of the Interior into twelve business circles, the previous six registry general ledgers were completed and, from 1923, each business division was assigned its own registry department designated by the number of the business division. Since then, the general ledgers have been laid out as loose-leaf books. In business section I, where around 5000 diary numbers and 4000 personnel file numbers were produced each year, a special arrangement was made in 1925 in which the enema was no longer entered in the diary but in a card file. In the other departments, the practice has remained the same, i.e. all individual cases have been registered in the diary and general ledger. The second part of the general ledger, which was created according to subject areas, comprised the district general ledger, which had been maintained since 1924. Since 1 January 1939, individual cases have only been recorded on an order card index for reasons of rational working methods. Instead of the diary number, these receipts have since carried the bundle number with a corresponding sub-number. As can be seen from the attached concordance, individual groups of files were provided with nine file signatures after 1939. Processing Report: The present holdings are a summary of the following partial deliveries and provisionally formed holdings of the Provenance Ministry of the Interior, Dept. I, Office Directorate:1. Transfer Index of 29 April 1958 including the Special Index of 1961 on the Records of the District Offices .2. Transfer Index of 8 August 1980, Diary No. 3766.3. Delivery of the Regierungspräsidium Tübingen via the State Archives Sigmaringen of 11 August 1980, and of the Regional Archives of Sigmaringen, Germany, to the District Archives of Tübingen. March 1981 diary number 1153.4. delivery directory of different departments of the Ministry of the Interior from 2 March 19815. files from the time after 1945, which were so far components of the stocks EA 2/1 and EA 2/2. During the revision of the stock extensive files (Az. 751-0301-552 from 13 February 1986) from the time after 1945 were separated and pulled to the stock EA 2/2 Ministry of the Interior department I. For the present repertory, the handover lists mentioned above were merely checked and supplemented, but the form of title recording for repertories was chosen for easier handling of the find book. Individual files of Groups IX (Festivities and Commemorations) and XI (Art and Science) were indexed and recorded in detail by Archivamtmännin Pfeifle as early as 1975. since further job files were identified during the compilation of the partial holdings, it was necessary to merge the files of the special job file index of 1958 as well as the special index attached to it ("Personalakte" der Landratsämter) to delivery number 144. The previous special directory for serial number 145 has been provided with the new bundle numbers and can therefore still be used. The classification of the inventory was based on the rules of procedure of January 1923. A concordance of the bundle numbers to the previous serial numbers of the delivery lists is attached to the find book. The now united stock was revised and repackaged by the archive employees Hans Meissner and Kurt Lohmüller in the period 1981 - 1984 according to the instructions of the undersigned. The typewritten work was carried out by Mrs. Else Schwelling and Mrs. Gisela Filipitsch. The collection comprises 3161 numbers (100.5 m).Stuttgart, April 1986Walter Wannenwetsch
