History of the tradition In Section I, Section V, Building and Transport, files were produced in the following areas: general provisions on building, general provisions on the employment and inspection of building officials, personal data of building officials, state buildings, monuments, private buildings, general provisions on road construction, state roads, vicinal roads, material yards, material extraction and material transport, water and bridge construction, transport institutions: Postal and messenger services, telegraphs, railways, motor vehicle lines and electrical power installations as well as budget and cash management of the building administration. In addition, there are documents on topics such as the creation of small settlements and allotments for the unemployed, especially in the 1930s, motor vehicle permits and driving schools. On 27 May 1946, the water supply files were handed over to the Sigmaringen Water Management Authority for the purpose of carrying out its tasks and were transferred by the latter to the Sigmaringen State Archives with the accessions 1/1955, 40/1957, 16/1958 and 1/1961. Many road construction files were handed over to the Landeskomunalverband, since road construction was transferred to the latter's area of responsibility. These files were handed over by the Sigmaringen Road Construction Office to the Sigmaringen State Archives with accession 11/1979. A file came via the Landeskommunalverband to the Staaltliche Vermessungsamt Sigmaringen and was handed over to the Staatsarchiv Sigmaringen by it on 15.07.1970. The present repertory is a revised version of the two official finding aids of the Prussian Government, Section I, V, Construction and Transportation of 1852 and 1927 (see No. 981 and 982). The two means of finding authorities are partly identical and partly different. Occasionally, file numbers that had previously been regarded as order signatures were assigned twice. As the funds were used to locate authorities, amendments were made and not always in the expected places, which led to a great deal of confusion. The various entries on destruction or transfer to other authorities also created confusion as to the existence or location of the files. The NVA numbers behind the individual title records (if at all clearly assignable) gave a certain indication that the file must already have been in the archive. Some of the files listed here (some of which may be hand files of building officials) were not listed in the repertories of the authorities. The confusion and the poor manageability of the two finding aids, in addition to the necessity of simplifying the old signatures, have led to the present index. The processing of the inventory took place only on the basis of the finding aids and not on the basis of the files. The content of the titles was not checked against the files, but only carefully normalised. Only the actual existence of the files and their duration was determined in the stock in the magazine. Notes of formally conspicuous parts of the file were included in the repertory and no evidence of prior provenance was found. Mainly, however, one has to reckon with the preliminary provinces "Geheime Konferenz Sigmaringen", "Geheime Konferenz Hechingen", "Fürstliche Landesregierung Sigmaringen", "Fürstliche Landesregierung Hechingen", "Preußische Übergangsregierung Sigmaringen", "Preußische Übergangsregierung Hechingen" and "Preußischer Kommissarius". Individual files were left as they were in spite of free conveniences. Foreign provenances include "Fürstliche Landesregierung Sigmaringen", "Fürstliche Hofkammer Sigmaringen", "Kreisbauamt Hechingen", "Preußischer Kommissarius" and "Präsident von Hohenzollern - Abwicklungsstelle". All files with one of the first four foreign provenances mentioned are pre-files, i.e. there were further files with provenance "Prussian Government Sigmaringen" with the same file titles. After the dissolution of Prussia, the authority "President of Hohenzollern - Abwicklungsstelle" had the task, after the dissolution of the Prussian state of Prussia, of completely winding up the business of the Prussian government of Sigmaringen, which was also dissolved in 1945. In the case of files kept until 1945, it is not discarded, as it is usually only a single sheet with a different provenance than the "Prussian Government of Sigmaringen". In the case of the place index, areas and places which were no longer on German territory after 1918 or 1945 were identified as far as possible on the basis of their administrative affiliation when the file was created. This repertory lists all the files listed in the two lists of authorities. If they could not be found, the note "File not available" appears in the repertory. The state of conservation of the files is questionable, as the Prussian-stitched files have so far been loose and unpacked on the shelves. A further deterioration of the state is not to be expected, as the stock has now been packed in an archive-compatible manner. The title recordings were recorded by the undersigned in 2003/2004 using the Midosa 95 archive indexing program. Corinna Knobloch and the undersigned were responsible for checking the files in the magazine. Holger Fleischer completed the final EDP work.

History of Tradition For the history of the authorities, see the preface to the holdings Ho 235 T 3 Processor's report In Section I, Section VI Trade and Industry, files were produced in the following areas: Size and weight, annual and weekly markets, trade concessions and pedlar trade, customs association and traffic in the same, trade, trade schools, trade police, guild system, book printers and bookstores, insurance companies and emigration agents as well as patent awards, building craftsmen and chimney sweeps, restaurants and pubs, Mills and shipping as well as water engines, ban rights, factories and steam boilers as well as smoke development, mining and metallurgy and saltworks as well as petroleum, budget and cash management, health insurance of workers, accident insurance of workers, disability and old age insurance, economic and other measures as a result of the world wars. Files on trade and trade schools were originally listed under a classification point "Trade" in the old index. However, since this was a confusing abundance of file titles, the division into two classification points was recommended: the classification point "Wanderschaften der Handwerksgesellen und Dispensationen davon" no longer has any files. The present repertory is the revised version of the 1852 official finding aid of the Prussian Government Section I Section VI Trade and Industry of 1852 with a supplement of 1927 (see No. 739). There is an index to the old repertory (see no. 740). There is also a concordance in the archive (see No. 741) between the authority file number and the NVA (=newly recorded files) number assigned in the archive. The addendum is partly in line with the 1852 finding fund of the authorities and partly not. Occasionally, file numbers that had previously been regarded as order signatures were assigned twice. As this is a means of finding authorities, supplements were made and these were not always in the expected places, which led to a great deal of confusion. Also the various entries about destruction or transfer to other registries (especially registry G of the standing registry) and other authorities created confusion about the existence or location of the files. The NVA numbers behind the individual title records (if at all clearly assignable) gave a certain indication that the file must already have been in the archive. - The NVA number was the first signature assigned in the archive, later the files were detached from the NVA stock again and were set up again according to the old authority signature. - However, not every file with an NVA number could be found. The complexity and the poor manageability of the old finding aid, in addition to the necessity of simplifying the old signatures, have led to the present directory. The first processing of the inventory took place only on the basis of the finding aids and not on the basis of the files. The content of the titles was not checked against the files, but only carefully normalised. The actual existence of the files and their duration was determined in the inventory in the magazine. Files from the previously unallocated remainder of the total holdings of the Prussian Government of Sigmaringen had to be allocated to the present partial holdings. In the course of the file check, the notes in the file were included in the repertory and no evidence of prior provenance was found. Unless it was a matter of a file with the preliminary provenance "Prussian Government Sigmaringen" and with the final provenance "Presidents of Hohenzollern - Liquidation Office". Mainly, however, one has to reckon with the preliminary provinces "Gehei me Konferenz Sigmaringen", "Geheime Konferenz Hechingen", "Fürstliche Landesregierung Sigmaringen", "Fürstliche Landesregierung Hechingen", "Preußische Übergangsregierung Sigmaringen", "Preußische Übergangsregierung Hechingen", "Preußischer Kommissarius" and "Landratsamt Hechingen". Individual files were left as they were in spite of free conveniences. Only "Prussian Commissarius" and "President of Hohenzollern - Processing Office" appear as foreign provenances. After the dissolution of Prussia, the authority "President of Hohenzollern - Abwicklungsstelle" (President of Hohenzollern - Settlement Office) had the task of fully settling the affairs of the Prussian government of Sigmaringen, which was also dissolved in 1945. The repertory now has a place and person index. The problem with the place index was that many places in the east of the former German Empire are now mainly on Polish territory. In order to facilitate the understanding of contemporary administrative contexts, these places were identified according to their administrative affiliation at the time. The same procedure was applied to Alsace-Lorraine. The present repertory lists all files that are listed in the list of authorities. If they could not be found, the note "not available" appears in the repertory. The state of conservation of the files is questionable, as the Prussian-stitched files were previously loose and unpacked on the shelves. However, no further deterioration of the state is to be expected, as the files have been packaged in an archival manner. The title recordings were recorded by the undersigned in 2004 using the Midosa 95 archive indexing program. Corinna Knobloch and the undersigned checked the files in the magazine.
