Acquisition

The greater part of the fonds was stored, in 1945-1954, in the registry office of the District National Committee Sokolov. From there it was transferred to the Regional Archives in Loket, and then into the new seat of the Regional Archives in Kadaň. The fonds was arranged and inventoried there. In 1981, it was handed over to the District Archives in Sokolov.

Scope and Content

The fonds includes incomplete archival records of the political administration of the Sokolov district from the period of the German occupation, particularly files relating to businesses, citizenship and the hospital management, and personal files. Information on the history of Jews can be found mainly in the following files: The census results in the district of Falknov (inv. No. 74) and The 1939 census (inv. No. 105).

System of Arrangement

The fonds of the Landrat Sokolov is divided into books (registration books, accounting books) and files (registry finding aids, files).
