21.03.-20.05.2022: From the national park to the bee colony. 50 years Ministry of the Environment in Bavaria.

The small exhibition “From the National Park to the Beevolksbegehren” shows the diversity of the tradition of the environment stored in the Bavarian Main State Archive. 50 years of the Ministry of the Environment in Bavaria”, which until 20. May 2022 can be seen in the Bavarian Main State Archive.

The Bavarian Ministry of the Environment was established in the European Nature Conservation Year 1970 by decision of the Bavarian Landtag. Since then, the environmental policy field has developed into a political-social long-term task with the aim of creating as much as possible equivalent and good living conditions throughout Bavaria. This includes a lively and healthy environment.

Priorities in the history of the Ministry of the Environment were early environmental initiatives and educational measures, legislative initiatives such as the inclusion of environmental protection as a state goal in the Bavarian Constitution and the Bavarian Environmental Pact in 1995. There were also challenges such as environmental scandals, protests against the reprocessing plant in Wackersdorf, citizens' initiatives and popular desires. They also demonstrate the emergence of a new political culture of resistance and direct democracy.

Archives of the Free State of Bavaria for “Reparation” National Socialist Unright

‘reparation files’ are important sources of historical research due to the detailed biographical information and the attached evidence. On the 7th Day of Provenance Research on the 9th April 2025 show the Bavarian State Archives with a small showcase presentation in the Bavarian Main State Archive, which provides insights into persecution skills based on this file group. The Day of Provenance Research conveys the social and scientific relevance of this research area and takes place every year on the second Wednesday in April. In the example of the persecution fate of the Jewish woman Hedwig Bobelle during the NS period, it is shown which evaluation possibilities for example offer the compensation files. The Compensation Act contains applications submitted by Hedwig Bobelle to the Bavarian State Compensation Office from 1954. These requests for damage to freedom, property and property as well as professional and economic progress illustrate, among other things, the handling of the recovery authorities with the formerly persecuted. In many cases, detailed evidence was required which were hardly to be provided, since almost everything had to be left behind on the flight, in detention and other war-related fates. It is also clear that not only cultural goods such as paintings, musical instruments or valuable books have been robbed. Everyday objects, from personal memorabilia to furnishings, were also deprived of Nazi persecution. Files such as those of Hedwig Bobelle will be made available online in the future, taking into account the legal bases. For this purpose, between 2023 and 2030 a part of the archival tradition is digitized and deepened for the “reparation” of NS injustice of the state archives of Bavaria. Development data and digitalisates are provided online via the finder database of the Bavarian State Archives and the thematic portal “Reparation of National Socialist Unright” in the “Archivportal-D”. The digitization project was initiated by the Federal Ministry of Finance, which has been responsible for the “reparation” of national socialist injustice as the top specialist authority since the early 1950s. The theme portal implements one of the following tasks of the “reparation”. The presentation is from 2 to 30. April 2025 in the Bayerischer Hauptstaatsarchiv, Schönfeldstr. 5, 80539 Munich, to see. The entrance is free. Opening hours: Monday to Thursday 8.30-18.00 Friday 8.30-13.30 closed: Good Friday and Easter Monday, 18th and 21st April 2025 Links: on the theme portal ‘Reparation of National Socialist Unright’ link to the online collection "Reparation for National Socialist Injustice" Working group Provenance research e.V. to Events on the Day of Provenance Research the Research association Provenienzforschung Bayern Poster and Flyer: Nicole Edwards, GDA.
