Overview: The sub-collection "Gewett: Hafen und Schifffahrt" contains the most important sources on Rostock's shipping history. The temporal emphasis of the tradition lies in the 19th century and reaches up to the end of the Second World War. The nautical register from 1585-1605, the ship's tonnage records (Bielbriefe), the ship's register files, the ship's registers, the harbour journals or the sample rolls are worth mentioning. In addition, the general administrative files for the business operation of the bet are classified in this portfolio. Of particular interest are, among other things, the weight calculations. The invoices of the two Weddeherren, which have been available since 1381, prove that the preservation of the harbour, the low, the fairway, the bulwark and the light as well as the supervision of the beach and the flotsam have belonged to their tasks since earliest times. In the course of the formation of the authorities, these competences gave rise to important areas of responsibility for the Gewett. The area of responsibility of the Gewett was regulated by a series of Council regulations. 1756 a beach regulation was issued, 1802 a pilot regulation, 1853 a port regulation. Since 1831 Gewett was responsible for the exhibition of Bielbriefe. A council decree of 1838 made it a de facto seaman's office, controlling the acceptance, wages and layoffs of ship crews. After the German Reich's Seemannsordnung came into force, the Gewett officially became the Seemannsamt in 1873. In 1874 a sovereign decree entrusted him with the tasks of a beach office. In 1879 the Gewett took over the management of the ship registers, in 1888 it became the ship surveying authority. Under the supervision of the Gewett, important areas of the shipping and port industry were located in Rostock and Warnemünde. However, some functions had to be transferred to state authorities since the end of the 19th century. Since their establishment in 1877, the Maritime Offices have negotiated declarations and accidents. The keeping of the shipping registers was transferred to the district court in 1912. After the dissolution of the Gewett in 1920, the municipal port administration took its place. In 1934 the port administration was dissolved as an independent department. The finance department took over the processing of the property, e.g. the letting of the storage places at the harbour, on the beach and in Warnemünde. The tasks of the shipping office, the seaman's office and the ship surveying authority were assigned to the police office. The civil engineering office was responsible for port and waterway construction. Publications: Müller, Walther: Rostock's maritime shipping and maritime trade in the course of time.

Tradition: The Großherzogliche Badische Baugewerkeschule was founded in 1878. Since 1919 it was called "Badisches Staatstechnikum" or "Badische Höhere Technische Lehranstalt (Staatstechnikum)" (1923), since 1946 "Staatstechnikum Karlsruhe", since 1963 "Staatliche Ingenieurschule Karlsruhe", since 1971 "Fachhochschule Karlsruhe - Hochschule für Technik"; in 2005 it was renamed "Hochschule Karlsruhe - Technik und Wirtschaft". In contrast to the architecture department of the Polytechnic University, the drawing examination papers of the students of construction trades were kept at the school. As far as the documents were not collected by the school administration - especially in the period after about 1970 - an extensive, largely coherent set of plans has been preserved. It was handed over to the General State Archives in 1999 together with a transfer list in Access format, and more recent work was added in 2004. In the archive, the entire holdings were signed, packaged and re-registered by the ladies Mohd, Hummel and Vogt, the list of consignments was edited and converted into 'scopeArchiv' in 2012. The variety of query options (by building type, drawing technique, etc.) was retained in 'scopeArchiv' in a field visible only to the archive staff and in the source file (Access).a few privately owned student works that came to the General State Archive with the Thomas Kellner Collection in 2006 were incorporated; the drawing portfolio of Franz Kühn for the years 1934 to 1937 is now available as a sample portfolio for all subjects at the end of the student works.Further student works, which were delivered together with files of the building department also in 2004 - among them e.g. building photographs of Black Forest farms of the excursion of 1937 -, are recorded in inventory GLA 592 Access 2004-69. Some building photographs of monuments from this convoy were probably inadvertently taken over into the general plan inventory GLA 424 K. Plans (blueprints) of the Karlsruhe City Planning Office for the redesign of the Market Square from 1974 were submitted to the City Archive. Content: The approximately 100-year-old tradition conveys the teaching methods of drawing and the architectural expectations of the time between historicism and modernism and is thus an outstanding source for the transformation of technology, architectural aesthetics and reception behaviour over the social ruptures of the 20th century. Probably the most valuable part, almost half of the total stock, is taken up by the plans from the subjects of construction survey and design; the names of the subjects changed in the process. The annual publications of the Baugewerkeschule, such as the "design of bourgeois residential buildings" by the construction students or the recording of "patriotic monuments" in the whole of Baden by the prospective trade teachers, show that the focus here was on the core of teaching at least until 1914; part of the semester and holiday work was thus published promptly in large-format volumes (cf. the incomplete series in the library of the General State Archives, Cw 8102ff, 1885-1914 and individual proof pages, together with pages from architecture and engineering textbooks, as an appendix in fonds 592 K). In the 1920s, industrial and functional buildings came to the fore. During National Socialism, the main focus of interest was on the design of housing estates, and in the cataloguing of architectural monuments almost exclusively farmhouses in the Black Forest and in Baden's Franconia region; these architectural photographs are of particular value as historical architectural sources (a photo in No. 1581 shows members of one of the 1937 field trips to take a picture of a farm). But also the registration of e.g. Karlsruhe city centre buildings, which were destroyed during and after the Second World War, or the systematic mapping of Überlingen town houses in 1935 are important and so far almost unknown architectural inventory achievements. In the post-war period, photographs of buildings appeared almost exclusively as part of general drawing lessons; interior designs were added in the 1960s. All in all, the student works provide a good insight into the "tempo" of style change and architectural convention, precisely because of their dependence on current teaching and building practice. Photographs of architectural monuments on Lake Constance by the Constance photographer German Wolf from the years around 1900 form a separate group. They are testimonies to early monuments inventory, in the context of the building photographs perhaps as a model or as material for teaching. In contrast, photographs of plans whose originals were missing - mostly montages on large cardboard boxes from the 1960/1970s - remained in the main inventory. Drawing templates and other foreign materials were summarised, plans such as photos, which had gotten between the pupils' work as teaching aids; they can now be found at the end of the collection, as far as they could not be collected as duplicates. Access database: The database of the University of Applied Sciences will continue to be maintained as it allows further access to the stock due to its sorting possibilities, but does not have the same text status as the available finding aids data. Special mention should be made of the sorting according to "object groups":Sacral buildings (1)Public buildings (2)Residential buildings (3)Agricultural buildings (4)Others (5).The encryption "Type of execution" can also be used for exhibition preparations: Technical - black-and-white1Technical - colored2Artistic - black-and-white3Artistic - colored4. For the archive personnel, text parts can be queried in the data field "internal archive remarks", so that a selection according to these criteria is also possible in 'scopArchive'. Examples are "Item group: 1 (sacral buildings)" and "Type of construction: 1 (technical, black and white)".
