The General Directorate (German: General-Ober-Finanz-Kriegs-und Domainen-Direktorium), was an administrative body of the Kingdom of Prussia for internal and financial administration that existed between 1723 and 1808. It was founded by King Frederick William I as a "registry". This led to the development of the Privy Ministerial Archives, which were merged with the Privy State Archives in 1874.
