Scope and content

History of the Inventor: The staff of the station command of the naval station of the North Sea was formed in 1870/71. From 1873 to 1904, the station chief was also the fortress commander of Wilhelmshaven. The Station Command was first subordinated to the Admiralty, then to the High Command of the Navy, and from 1899 as Immediatbehörde directly subordinated to the Emperor. After the First World War, the station command was subordinated to the Reichsmarineamt, the head of the Admiralty and the head of the naval command and was transferred to the Reichsmarine. The commandant's office of the fortifications of the Weser estuary in Geestemünde, the commandant's office of the fortifications of the Elbe estuary in Cuxhaven and the commandant's office of the fortifications of Helgoland were directly under the command of the naval station of the North Sea. Processing note: The RM 33 holdings were divided and the files from the period after 1920 were transferred to the new RM 133 holdings. The file RM 3/10883 was transferred to the inventory under the signature RM 33/3189. The file RM 33/309 was renumbered RM 31/4598. Inventory description: In the inventory RM 33 the archives of the naval station of the North Sea are listed as territorial command and basic authority of the Imperial Navy for personnel replacement, personnel control, basic training, material supply of the fleet, coastal defence and surveillance of the coastal waters in the area of the North Sea. The stock is intended for splitting. The documents of the naval station of the North Sea of the Reichsmarine and Kriegsmarine will form the new stock RM 133. RM 33 will then only contain the documents of the naval station of the North Sea of the Imperial Navy. Content characterisation: The inventory mainly contains documents on the material provision and readiness for war of ships and auxiliary ships, on Admiralstabsreisen, on closure plans for the estuaries of the North Sea coast including mines and on the reinforcement of the fortifications Wilhelmshaven, Helgoland, Weser and Elbe estuaries. The files of the defensive unit of the station command are of particular importance.
