The Garbsen City Archives are the municipal archives of the City of Garbsen . It stores official and unofficial documents of lasting legal and historical value from the administration and the spatial area of today's city of Garbsen and its legal predecessors.

Legal basis and organization

According to the Lower Saxony Archives Act (NArchG), the city of Garbsen, as a municipal body, is obliged to secure its archives. It fulfills this obligation with the city archive set up in 1990. Organizationally, the archive is assigned to the Culture and Sport Department within the Garbsen City Administration . It is based in the Garbsen district of Horst .

Stocks

The holdings of the archive include both official and unofficial information carriers of all kinds, including files, maps and plans, photographs, newspapers, documents and electronically stored data. Most of the holdings come from the administration of the town of Garbsen and its predecessor communities; In addition, information carriers from private individuals, clubs and associations, parties, companies and the like are either transferred to the archive or left for safekeeping for an indefinite period of time (as a so-called deposit ).

In terms of time, the holdings range from the mid-18th century to the present, with the focus on the time since the formation of the town of Garbsen in its current form in 1974.

use

With the help of archive material, legal facts can be proven or previous administrative actions can be traced. Reasons for using the archive can be, for example, scientific research, educational purposes or private historical interest. The basis for the use of the Garbsen City Archives is the usage and fee statutes adopted by the Garbsen City Council. Accordingly, the city archive is open to use by the city administration itself and, in principle, by anyone interested.

The Lower Saxony Archives Act, the Federal Archives Act , the Civil Status Act and other legal provisions stipulate blocking periods for the protection of those affected. After these deadlines have expired, official archives can be used by anyone. For archived material from non-official sources, individual arrangements can be made with the owners, unless statutory provisions apply.

A collection of more than 2,800 photographs, the Havelse collection of amateur photographer Rudolf Guthmann , created between the 1950s and 1970s , is publicly available in the Archivportal-D and in the German Digital Library under the license CC-BY-SA 3.0 .

Cultural work, sponsors and cooperation partners

As a municipal cultural institution, the Garbsen City Archive carries out public relations work with local and regional historical references. Among other things, it is the editor of the ten-volume series of publications on the city's history, which has been published in ten volumes since 1992, and is involved in the authorship, editing and editing of other publications. It also organizes lectures, courses and exhibitions, for example. The Garbsen City Archives regularly take part in Archives Day, which takes place every two years and is each dedicated to a common nationwide motto.

The city of Garbsen is the legal, organizational and financial sponsor of the city archive. The most important further sponsor and cooperation partner is the StadtArchivVerein Garbsen eV, founded in 1998. Private individuals also support the projects of the City Archives and the StadtArchivVerein organisationally or financially, including the Garbsen entrepreneur Robert Hesse II, who died in 2018.

Since 2005 the Garbsen City Archives have been a member of the regional emergency association for cultural property protection of the Hanover region, which is geared towards mutual aid .
