Acquisition

The registry office of the former Litoměřice Landrat (district councillor) was deposited in Litoměřice at the site where today's State District Archives in Litoměřice have had their base since 1949. The archives took on the Landrat's documents along with the building in 1949 and thus the files remained deposited in their original site on the building's ground floor. In 1957 they were picked up there and arranged. The fonds was not preserved in its entirety; based on the type of material that is missing, it can be assumed that sensitive material was purposely destroyed by German staff members. The fonds was inventoried in 1957-1959 at the regional archives and came to the Litoměřice District Archives in 1980.

Scope and Content

The fonds contains the documents of the political administration in the Litoměřice district in 1938-1945. Jewish matters are mentioned in the inventory under the following items: Nazi administration of Czech and Jewish property 1938, Czech and Jewish enterprises, homes, farmhouses 1940, property of the Czechoslovak state, Czechs and Jews 1939 ( G 4), Jewish registers 1939-1942, Jewish registers, Nuremberg Laws 1939-1944 (Ho III and 8 – C Jüd), Jewish first names 1939-1944 (Ho III b 3), the racial protection act 1940-1944 (Ho III c 1), municipal reporting on Jewish cemeteries 1941 (Ho III 11), Jew Rich.

System of Arrangement

The archival fonds is structured as follows: official books, registry finding aidand the files themselves. The fonds is divided to twoperiods; the first consists of the years 1938-1939, the second 1939-1945, and under these the documents are sorted by the file scheme. The personnel files of teachers, registry files sent to the Landrat by registry offices and other unclassified construction files form a separate group.
