Acquisition

The fonds was forwarded in a poor condition to the archives in 1953 by the agricultural administration of the Provincial National Committee. The fonds contains the remnants of the German part of the registry office, which was kept separately and arranged by Germans from the Reich who were employees of the Circuit Office. In addition to this there existed a registry office created by Czech employees, which is probably lost.

Scope and Content

The fonds contains surviving material from the Circuit Office of the Land office in Brno from the years of the Occupation 1939–1945. In it you can find these archival records concerning the Jewish history: applications of people interested in renting Jewish estates from the years 1939–1942; documents about Marie Aujeská from Boskovice and the purchase of Jewish property 1942; documents about Antonín Hřebaček from Podivín and the renting of Jewish property 1943; František Sedláček – transfer of his business do Bučovice to the Jewish buildings of Leontýna Stiasná 1940–1941; information about distillery cooperative in Říčany (participation of Jews, disorder in the accounts) 1940; correspondence about purchase of Jewish fields 1939.
