Lower Saxony Economic Archives Foundation
The Lower Saxony Economic Archive Foundation is a regional economic archive . It has the task - starting from the old state of Braunschweig - to secure historically valuable documents from the economic life of Lower Saxony and to make them usable.
organization
The NWA was founded in 2005 as a foundation under civil law. The state of Lower Saxony , Nord / LB , the Braunschweig Public Insurance and the Braunschweig Chamber of Commerce and Industry acted as donors .
The state undertook to provide the necessary rooms and shelf space as well as sufficient archiving material in the Wolfenbüttel State Archives for at least 20 years . The head of the State Archives - since 2013: Lower Saxony State Archives, Wolfenbüttel location - manages the foundation's business.
The foundation bodies are the board of directors and the board of trustees.
At the end of 2015, the North-West Lower Saxony Economic Archives Foundation was merged with the NWA.
Stocks
The NWA stores stocks of very different industries and of very different sizes. The archives of the Reichswerke Hermann Göring and the Norddeutsche Landesbank are of supraregional importance .
The best-known individual items are probably the oldest preserved food cans in the world - from 1873, from the production of the Busch, Barnewitz & Co.
The holdings of East Frisian companies from the former North-West Lower Saxony economic archive are kept by the Lower Saxony State Archive in Aurich .
use
The holdings can be used in accordance with the provisions of the Lower Saxony Archives Act. The files are presented in the reading room of the State Archives in Wolfenbüttel or in Aurich. Some online finding aids are published in the database of the Lower Saxony State Archives .
