history

Until the foundation of the State Monument Authority of Baden-Württemberg in 1972, the state preservation of monuments in the states of Baden, Württemberg and Hohenzollern and from 1945 in the states of South Baden, Württemberg-Baden and Württemberg-Hohenzollern is organized separately. In addition, from the beginning there are in some cases different assignments of the conservators for the protection of the architectural monuments and the archaeological monument preservation.

Until 1945

In 1853 August von Bayer was appointed the first state conservator of art monuments in Baden by decree from Friedrich I of Baden . His tasks:

  1. Gather as accurate a knowledge as possible of the existence and condition of the art monuments in the Grand Duchy
  2. record the knowledge gained
  3. promote the preservation of art monuments.

In 1875 he was first followed by Ernst Wagner , and in 1876 Gustav Kachel (born August 1, 1843 - March 31, 1882 in Karlsruhe) took care of the public monuments. One of his achievements was the good restoration of the ruins of the Allerheiligen monastery . After Kachel's early death, Ernst Wagner again took over the supervision of the monuments in 1882, in addition to managing the antiquities collections, which he held from 1875 to 1919. In 1898, Philipp Kircher became the curator of public monuments. At the same time, Franz Xaver Kraus had been a curator for ecclesiastical antiquities since 1882. From 1909 to 1948 Joseph Sauer was the Grand Ducal Baden curator of ecclesiastical monuments.

A reorganization of the preservation of monuments took place in 1920 under the direction of the Ministry of Finance, but the foundation of the State Office for the Preservation of Monuments in Baden did not take place until 1934. It was initially located at the Baden State Museum and its director Hans Rott initially took over the management. In 1935 management went to Otto Linde on a part-time basis. The art historian Karl Wulzinger (born June 29, 1886 Würzburg; † May 26, 1948 in Karlsruhe) followed in 1939.

Württemberg

In 1858 Konrad Dietrich Hassler was appointed the first state curator for monuments of art and antiquity.

He was succeeded by Eduard Paulus the Younger in 1873 . While Paulus used his poetic language to advertise the beauty and importance of the monuments in numerous publications, his successor Eugen Gradmann campaigned for legal regulations in the preservation of monuments. In 1900 he took over the royal Württemberg State Conservatory.

In 1905 Gradmann succeeded in initially creating an assistant position for looking after the coin cabinet and lapidarium as well as for the archaeological tasks of the State Conservatory, and in 1909 the position of second curator. He won over the classical philologist Peter Goessler and the art historian Julius Baum . By his retirement in 1920 he had established the Württemberg State Office for Monument Preservation : On June 12, 1920, the statutes of the now newly named State Office for Monument Preservation were issued.

In 1920, Peter Goessler was appointed director of the antiquities collection and state curator, succeeding Eugen Gradmann. Goessler divided the office into six groups:

  1. Historical monuments - part-time Ernst Fiechter
  2. Historical art monuments - Julius Baum , supported by Richard Schmidt , previously a volunteer, who was to become Baum's successor. It was here that movable monuments were protected and cared for, primarily ecclesiastical furnishings, and wall paintings were also exposed and preserved; In addition, Schmidt in particular played a decisive role in group 1 work. Another important task was the continuation and addition of the national register of architectural monuments , as entries had been hesitant until then.
  3. Prehistoric and early historical monuments, managed by Goessler himself with the assistance of Oskar Paret .
  4. Nature and Landscape (1922) - Chairman of the Natural History Collection, Martin Schmidt, later Hans Schwenkel .
  5. Archives - managed by the Archives Directorate.
  6. Volkstum (1923) - August Lämmle .

At the same time, district organs were set up, so-called “guardians”, small outposts in the Oberamt, formed by voluntary helpers whose primary task was to observe and to report to the state office about all events in the country that affected any department of monument preservation to report. These caretakers should be independent working groups that should bring the idea of ​​monument preservation into the general consciousness.
In 1934, Goessler was relieved of all offices at the instigation of the head of the Prehistory Section at KfdK , Hans Reinerth. Hans Schwenkel took over his duties provisionally .

Hohenzollern

Ferdinand von Quast (1807 to 1877), as a Prussian conservator, was also responsible for the Hohenzollern Lands .

In 1897 Wilhelm Friedrich Laur (1858 to 1934) became the state curator of the art monuments of Hohenzollern. He had been driving the inventory of the art monuments in Hohenzollern since 1888.

In 1934 Walther Genzmer (1890 to 1983) became head of monument preservation in Hohenzollern.

1945–1952

South Baden

In southern Baden , after the end of the Second World War, the preservation of historical monuments was initially supervised by Joseph Schlippe . After the Baden Monument Protection Act was passed in 1949, Leo Wohleb appointed him head of the State Office for Monument Preservation and Heritage Protection from 1951 to 1956. In 1946 Wolfgang Kimmig was appointed professor at the University of Freiburg and at the same time took over the management of the prehistoric and early historical monument preservation of South Baden.

Württemberg-Baden

Two state offices have been set up in the state of Württemberg-Baden . In Stuttgart, after the end of World War II, Gustav Wais was appointed director of the Württemberg State Office for Monument Preservation. Richard Schmidt was the only remaining conservator responsible for the monuments.

Arthur Valdenaire (* March 12, 1883 in Bretten; † January 15, 1946 in Karlsruhe) was appointed acting head of the monument administration in Karlsruhe . After his death in 1946, Otto Haupt was head of the State Monuments Office until his resignation at the end of 1949. In 1950 he was succeeded by Emil Lacroix (born July 12, 1905 in Karlsruhe; † January 26, 1965 there; art historian) in this office. In 1950 Albrecht Dauber took over the department for prehistory .

Württemberg-Hohenzollern

In 1945, Adolf Rieth took over the management of the preservation of monuments for Württemberg-Hohenzollern in Tübingen .

1952-1972

In 1952, state offices for the preservation of monuments were set up in North Württemberg (Stuttgart), North Baden (Karlsruhe) and South Württemberg (Tübingen) . The Office for Prehistory and Early History was established in southern Baden (Freiburg) and in 1953 a State Office for the Preservation of Monuments was established.

1972-2005

Landesdenkmalamt Baden-Württemberg, organizational chart 1972

In addition to the detailed legal provisions and definitions, the Baden-Württemberg Monument Protection Act of May 25, 1971 also reorganized the organization of state preservation of monuments. Instead of the previous fragmentation into the state offices for the preservation of monuments for the four administrative districts, the State Monuments Office in Stuttgart, as the higher state authority for monument protection with branch offices in Freiburg, Karlsruhe and Tübingen, centralized the tasks of monument preservation from January 1, 1972 when the law came into force. The official headquarters were Neckarstrasse , Eugenstrasse 7 and, until 2003, the Villa Gemmingen in Stuttgart. In 2003 the State Monuments Office moved into the former Schelztorgymnasium in Esslingen.

2005-2015

The State Monuments Office of Baden-Württemberg (LDA) was dissolved on December 31, 2004 as part of an administrative reform in the state of Baden-Württemberg. Its tasks were assigned:

  • State- wide and supraregional tasks were assigned to the regional council of Stuttgart , Department 8 (State Office for Monument Preservation, LAD).
  • the regional preservation of monuments was distributed to the regional councils of the state (until then branch offices of the LDA), now department 26 of the respective regional councils in Freiburg , Karlsruhe , Tübingen and Stuttgart (Esslingen).

Organization of monument preservation in Baden-Württemberg

The monument protection administration in Baden-Württemberg is divided into three levels: lower monument protection authorities, higher monument protection authorities and a supreme monument protection authority. The lower monument protection authorities are identical to the lower building law authorities. These are essentially the district offices and the larger municipalities and administrative communities. The four regional councils perform the tasks of the higher monument protection authorities. The highest monument protection authority is the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Finance and Economics .

The State Office for Monument Preservation performs the task of professional monument preservation. It advises the monument protection authorities and the owners.

The Baden-Württemberg Monument Foundation was founded in 1985 to provide financial support to private builders and civic initiatives .
