District archive of the Diepholz district

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The District Archives Diepholz is the Administrative Archive of Lower Saxony Diepholz .

The archives of the district and its predecessors are archived in the archive and made available for viewing by users. The scope of this task is not specified in the Lower Saxony Archives Act for municipalities .

Since the merger of the district of Diepholz from the districts of Grafschaft Diepholz and Grafschaft Hoya in 1977, their files have been administered by the district archive of the district of Diepholz.

Historian Stephan Kathe has been head of the district archive since the beginning of 2018. Predecessors were from 1977 to 1998 the Diepholz pedagogue, local researcher and author Hans Gerke and from 2000 to 2017 the Diepholz professional genealogist and local history researcher Falk Liebezeit.

With the help of the district archive, publications on historical administrative processes, road construction, local development, development of the school system in the district of Diepholz - for example in the home pages of the district of Diepholz - are possible. The holdings include files from around 1770, maps , documents from 1458, legacies and old editions of regional newspapers.

These unique items - this cultural asset - were housed in the rooms of the old agricultural school near the Diepholz train station. The district archive has been located in the Barnstorf district of Eydelstedt , in the so-called Hülsmeyer Park, since 2011 .
