"The Central Archives for Research on the History of the Jews in Germany was founded in 1987 as an establishment of the Central Council of Jews in Germany (Zentralrat der Juden in Deutschland). The conception of the Central Archives can be compared with that of the former General Archives of the German Jews (Gesamtarchiv der deutschen Juden) located in Berlin 1905- 1939. Storing and cataloguing historically valuable documents from Jewish communities, associations, organizations, and persons are of major concern. As a rule, the records are deposited at the Central Archives. "@eng . "Zentralarchiv zur Erforschung der Geschichte der Juden in Deutschland" . _:B8029f44f87c6c5d92b04c54b3dc83e15 . "The collection of documents from the Jewish communities, associations, and organizations is limited to the political borders of the Federal Republic of Germany. None of the institutions though are obliged to transfer outdated records to the Central Archives, as the collection and storage itself is based on individual agreements. Contrary to the public sector, enforceable guidelines are non-existent in the Jewish sector; the Central Archives in Heidelberg merely offers the Jewish communities an opportunity to store old records and documents. Yet on this basis the Central Archives has already acquired extensive record groups:\r\n\r\nCentral Council of Jews in Germany\r\nRecords 1950-1997, 45 linear meters\r\nCentral Welfare Office of the Jews in Germany\r\nRecords 1954-1990, 110 linear meters\r\nAllgemeine Jüdische Wochenzeitung\r\nRecords of the Editor 1983-1997, 11 linear meters\r\nJewish Student Organisations\r\nRecords 1962-1992, 7 linear meters\r\nRegional Association of Jewish Communities in Lower Saxony / Jewish Community Hannover\r\nRecords 1945-1990, 45 linear meters\r\nRegional Association of Jewish Communities in Nordrhein\r\nRecords 1945-1981, 42 linear meters\r\nJewish Community Berlin\r\nDP-files 1945-1949, 5 linear meters\r\nJewish Community Bremen\r\nRecords 1945-1979, 42 linear meters\r\nJewish Community Dortmund\r\nRecords 1945-1990, 30 linear meters\r\nJewish Community Düsseldorf\r\nRecords 1945-1979, 21 linear meters\r\nJewish Community Frankfurt a.M.\r\nRecords 1945-1985, 302 linear meters\r\nJewish Community Fürth\r\nRecords1946-1995, 10 linear meters\r\nJewish Community Heidelberg\r\nRecords 1961-1991, 6 linear meters\r\nJewish Community Wiesbaden\r\nRecords 1962-1986 and papers of the cantor Edmund Capell 1905 - 1937, 6 linear meters\r\nPersona\r\n\r\nIn order to achieve a detailed documentation on Jewish life, the Central Archives also looks into personal papers. Historically relevant sources are not only to be found among the leading representatives of Jewish communites and organizations but also among a new generation of Jewish authors in German literature and journalism. Already in their lifetime important documents can be secured and given public access. The prerequisite for the cooperation with a Jewish author is that the author deals with Jewish topics that have an impact on public discussions in the Federal Republic of Germany. Documents of the following persons are already in storage:\r\n\r\nJellinek\r\nfamily papers 1850-1960, 0.1 linear meter\r\nEdmund Capell (*1876-1942), cantor\r\npersonal papers, 0.02 linear meters\r\nLeiser Goldschmidt (*1889-1960)\r\npersonal papers, 0.01 linear meter\r\nLothar Rothschild (*1909-1974), rabbi\r\npersonal papers, 2 linear meters\r\nStefan Schwarz (*1910-1985)\r\npersonal papers, 0.02 linear meters\r\nJoseph Wulf (*1912-1974), historian\r\npersonal papers, 21 linear meters\r\nEmil Davidovic (*1912-1986), rabbi\r\npersonal papers, 0.3 linear meters\r\nHelmut Eschwege (*1913-1992), historian\r\npersonal papers, 13 linear meters\r\nKahn\r\nfamily papers 1915-1980, 0.02 linear meters\r\nGerhard Ballin (*1922-1989), genealogist\r\ncollection of material, 2 linear meters\r\nRobert Schindel (*1944), poet\r\nmanuscripts 1960-1991, 0.5 linear meters\r\nHenryk Broder (*1946), journalist\r\nmanuscripts and collection of material,\r\ntapes 1963-1993, 13 linear meters\r\nRafael Seligmann (*1947), author\r\narticles 1979-1984, 0.02 linear meters\r\nPeter Sichrovsky (*1947), author\r\ncritics and reader's letters 1983-1990, 0.4 linear meters\r\nSiegfried Baruch (*1901-1973)\r\nletters, fotos, articles 1948-1983, 0.1 linear meter\r\nBarbara Honigmann (*1949), author\r\ncritics 1986-1996, 1 linear meter\r\nCollections\r\nCemetery documentation\r\n\r\nNearly 2.000 Jewish cemeteries exist today in the Federal Republic of Germany. The total number of Jewish gravestones have been estimated at 600.000. Destruction, willful and by the elements, endanger these tombstones. A major task of the Central Archives in the first years of its existence was the preservation of the inscriptions by an extensive photo-documentary. Photographs of about 54.000 Jewish tombstones in Baden-Württemberg are now in possession of the Central Archives. In addition, the Central Archives stores photographs of more than 5.000 Jewish gravestones of Lower Saxony. Information on other documentation-projects of Jewish gravestone inscriptions is collected systematically.\r\nNewsletters\r\n\r\nThe collection of all periodical publications by Jewish groups or organizations is a further aim of the Central Archives in Heidelberg. Written newsletters that are sent, that is,\"made publi\" to members of a Jewish community, association, or organization are considered publications. The collections of the Central Archives consist of public newspapers and journals, newsletters of Jewish communities, programs of Jewish adult education centers, and photocopied circulars.\r\n\r\nThe Central Archives systematically collects lists of sources kept in other archives, institutions, or of those in private possession that are of relevance to the history of the Jews in Germany. As a rule, existent special inventories are copied and given access to in Heidelberg. "@eng . _:Bd26ccd60a664a6b093946263f96a9e0c . . . . _:B43dc8de3a7037639d0da473b2585bc8e . .
