In the Sudeten region were since 1938 four different organisations involved into the Nazi-settlement policy. These were the Sächsischen Bauernsiedlung GmbH Dresden, the Schlesische Landgesellschaft mbH Breslau, the Bayerische Bauernsiedlung GmbH and the Deutsche Ansiedlungsgesellschaft which openened in February 1939 an office (Geschäftstelle) in Carlsbad (Karlsbad/Karlovy Vary) and an office in Mährisch Schönberg (Šumperk). The main activity of the Deutsche Ansiedlungsgesellschaft was the settlement of German farmers on farms which belonged to Czechs, Jews or other"foreigner". Czech property was Germanized and Jewish property aryanized. Jewish owners of farm land were forced to sell their property to the Deutsche Ansiedlungsgesellschaft. The Karlsbad office got untill 1945 over 1600 farms with 50 000 hectars of land under their administration. Of special interest is material of the Deutsche Ansiedlungsgesellschaft concerning Jewish property, for example reports about Jewish agricultural property, guidelines for Aryanization of Jewish property and statistical reports about Jewish property.
