Content and Evaluation The R e i c h s k o l o n i a l b e n t (RKB), not a division of the NSDAP, but a collection basin of all associations previously active in colonial affairs, existed between 1936 and 1943. The documents of the RKB - Gauverband Württemberg - Hohenzollern, which had been captured by the US military at the end of 1942 and had some 49,000 members, were transferred to the Ludwigsburg State Archives after the political cleansing had been completed. There it forms its own collection under the signature PL 520, which was ordered and recorded by Dr. Carl-Jochen Müller between May 2004 and February 2007 in the course of a project financed by the Stiftung Kulturgut for the indexing of the holdings group PL 501-523.
