The Wesel District Yearbook has been a collection of articles that has been published annually since 1980. It deals with various topics that belong regionally to places in the Wesel district and the Lower Rhine.

Subject areas

Each yearbook contains a large number of articles that often only concern individual places in the district, sometimes the entire district or the Lower Rhine region. Historical topics are in the foreground, art, the environment and nature are also dealt with. Current topics such as the construction of the Lower Rhine Bridge in Wesel are also taken up.

Publication history

The Wesel district was formed on January 1, 1975 from the previous districts of Dinslaken , Moers and Rees . There have already been comparable publications in the previous circles. In the Dinslaken district, a local calendar for the Dinslaken district was published between 1939 and 1975 . In the Moers district, a local calendar was also published between 1938 and 1975. A home calendar was published in Rees County as early as 1924, but it was only continued from 1937 to 1939. Between 1929 and 1935 a Niederrheinischer Heimatkalender was published with the participation of all districts in the Lower Rhine.

After the Wesel district was founded in 1975, its first home calendar was published in 1980. Until 1990 the series was published as the local calendar of the Wesel district , and since 1991 as the Wesel district yearbook . The series has been published by Mercator Verlag since 1997 .
