The Main State Archive Stuttgart (abbreviation: HStAS ) is the archive responsible for the ministries of the state of Baden-Württemberg . It also contains the holdings of the county or the Duchy of Württemberg up to 1806, of the Württemberg central authorities of the 19th and 20th centuries and of the lordships and imperial cities in southern Württemberg that fell to Württemberg as a result of the mediatization at the beginning of the 19th century . In addition, there is the non-state tradition and the audio-visual archive, which is central to Baden-Württemberg. The Stuttgart State Archives have been located right next to the Württemberg State Library at Konrad-Adenauer-Strasse 4 in Stuttgart since 1969 . Until 2005, the main state archive was an independent authority , since then it has been a department of the Baden-Württemberg State Archive, which was founded at the time .

Archival material

Series

The archive material is divided into hundreds of archive holdings. The criterion for the creation of an archive inventory is usually the origin ( provenance principle ) or the type of material of the documents. The archive holdings are grouped into different, hierarchically arranged holdings groups. At the top level of the inventory groups there are the following 15 inventory groups, called series:
