The Merseburg Regional Postal Directorate was established for the Merseburg administrative district. The Chief Postal Officers managed the administration of their postal districts independently and under their own responsibility. The supervision of the railway postal service established on 1 May 1849 was carried out by a special railway postal inspector. His business was transferred from 1854 onwards to the district postal inspectors. Since the post office building in Halle offered more favourable conditions than the building in Merseburg, the Oberpostdirektion Merseburg had to move its official seat to Halle on 1 October 1852. By decree of 22 December 1875, the telegraph system was transferred to the Postal Directorates from January 1876. From this time on, the postal institutions were known as post offices and telegraph offices. In November 1881 the construction of a telephone station was started in Magdeburg. This was put into operation in January 1882. The post office cheque offices established in 1909 were responsible for several regional post offices. Telegraph offices were established in 1920. The local services, as the lowest level of the postal services, were the post offices. The local offices at the lowest level also included the postal agencies, postal auxiliaries, railway post offices, telegraph and telephone offices as well as public pay telephones in the municipalities. With the law of 27 February 1934 on simplifying and reducing the cost of administration, it was decided that, among other things, the Oberpostdirektion Halle was to be dissolved by 1 April 1934. The area of the Oberpostdirektion Halle is integrated into the Reichspostdirektion Leipzig (as a kind of compensation for the integration of the Reichsbahndirektion Leipzig into the Reichsbahndirektionsbezirk Halle). The Halle (Leipzig) district of the Reich Postal Administration included: Oberpostdirektion Halle, Telegraphenzeugamt Halle; Telegraphenbauämter Halle, Naumburg, Torgau; Verstärkeramt Bitterfeld; larger offices: Halle 2, Bitterfeld, Eisleben, Merseburg, Naumburg, Sangerhausen, Weißenfels, Wittenberg, Zeitz Delitzsch, Eisenburg, Falkenberg, Torgau; medium-sized offices: Ammendorf, Corbetha, Elsterwerda, Hettstedt, Klostermansfeld, Könnern, Schkeuditz, Allstedt, Alsleben, Artern, Bad Dürrenberg, Bad Kösen, Bad Liebenwerda, Bad Schmiedeberg, Düben, Freyburg, Gräfenhainichen, Herzberg, Hohenmölsen, Jessen, Kölleda, Leuna, Mücheln, Querfurt, Roßla, Teuchern, Zahna; offices of small extent: Annaburg, Bad Bibra, Bad Lauchstädt, Belgern, Bockwitz, Crensitz, Crossen, Diemitz, Dölau, Dommitzsch, Droyßig, Eckartsberga, Ermsleben, Gerbstedt, Gröbers, Heldrungen, Heringen, Kelbra, Kemberg, Kleinwittenberg, Landsberg, Laucha, Lauchhammer, Lützen, Mansfeld, Mückenberg, Mühlberg, Nauendorf, Nebra, Niemberg, Oberröblingen, Ortrand, Osterfeld, Prettin, Pretzsch, Roitzsch, Roßleben, Schafstädt, Schildau, Schkölen, Schönewalde, Stößen, Stolberg, Teutschenthal, Tisza, Wallhausen, Wettin, Wiehe, Wippra, Wolfen, Zörbig, Zschornewitz. Inventory information: In the period from 1989 to 1991, several visits to the administrative archive of the Deutsche Bundespost in Halle were carried out by staff members of the Magdeburg State Archives. Here, the archival material was viewed, evaluated and prepared for transfer to the state main archive (as the final archive). In the course of the location profiling between the individual locations of the Landeshauptarchiv, the postal archives were transferred in several steps to Department 4 (Dessau) of the Landeshauptarchiv. In May 2008, approximately 100 linear metres of postal archives were taken over from the Magdeburg site. In December 2009, approx. 290 running metres were transported from the Merseburg site to the Dessau site. A caesura was set for the postal stocks in May 1945. The continuation of some file units with the registry administrator beyond this caesura could not avoid overlaps in the duration of the stocks. For the archives of the Post Halle, the G 13 Deutsche Reichspost. Reichspostdirektion Halle and M 403 Deutsche Post. District Directorate Halle. When the archive records were taken over from the Merseburg location in 1945, the caesura - separation of the archives of the Reichspost and the Deutsche Post - had not yet taken place. For the personnel files, a list of names (probably compiled by a project manager) was available. The personnel files with a volume of 50.0 running meters were assigned to the G 13 Deutsche Reichspost. Reichspostdirektion Halle. For the rest of the postal files taken over from the Merseburg location, an inventory allocation with a caesura in 1945 and then the indexing/drawing of the individual files via scopeArchiv took place. Within the scope of the indexing work, the technical processing of the individual archival records was carried out at the same time. They were cleaned, demetallized, smoothed, repackaged, labeled and cardboarded.
