history

On October 1, 1808, the Statiſtiſch⸗topographiſche Bureau was opened in Bavaria as a subdivision of the Foreign Ministry . In the same year a police section was set up at the Ministry of the Interior, whose tasks also included statistics. Today's Bavarian State Office for Statistics is based on this twofold basis. In 1818 responsibility for statistics was transferred to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The two areas were merged into a separate statistical bureau under the direction of Joseph Ernst Ritter von Koch-Sternfeld .

The Statistical-Topographical Bureau in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was dissolved as early as 1817 . The files and responsibilities of the office were transferred to the portfolio of the Ministry of the Interior.

Due to a mention in a ministerial resolution, the year 1833 was for a long time wrongly regarded as the founding year of the Statistical Bureau. Franz von Berks was entrusted with the management of the office in 1833. In 1850 the Statistical Bureau became an independent authority and was officially named the Royal Bavarian Statistical Bureau . In 1909 it was finally renamed the Royal Bavarian State Statistical Office . In the course of this, the previously existing Central Statistical Commission was replaced by a statistical advisory board.

In 1919 it was renamed again to the Bavarian State Statistical Office . In 1944, the then official building on Lerchenfeldstrasse in Munich was completely destroyed in a bomb attack. The official business was continued in various branches in Munich and Fürstenfeldbruck . After the end of the Second World War, the Bavarian State Statistical Office continued its activities in full. The American military government commissioned the state office to carry out new statistics, such as harvest surveys, population updates and a housing inventory. The Bavarian State Office for Data Processing was incorporated into the Bavarian State Statistical Office in 1982 . The official name changed to Bavarian State Office for Statistics and Data Processing .

The foundation stone was laid on November 20, 1996 in the Schweinfurt branch and we moved into in February 1998.

In 2006, the south computer center was set up at the Bavarian State Office for Statistics and Data Processing. In November 2009 , plans by the Bavarian Prime Minister Horst Seehofer were announced to move the headquarters of the State Office to Fürth . On June 1, 2010, the office opened its office in Fürth in the building of the former Quelle headquarters . The building complex on Nürnberger Straße will be renovated in sections and will completely replace the office in Munich after the work is completed around 2019.

In the first half of 2012, the office's headquarters moved to St.-Martin-Straße in the Ramersdorf district .

With effect from January 1, 2014, the data center south was integrated as the IT service center of the Free State of Bavaria (IT-DLZ Bayern) in the State Office for Surveying and Geoinformation Bavaria , but remains under one roof with the State Office for Statistics and Data Processing in the service building in the St.-Martin-Strasse in Munich. As of June 1, 2015, the name component and data processing was omitted .

Since October 1, 2016, the headquarters of the state office has been located in the building of the former headquarters of the Quelle mail order company in Fürth.
