Within the cultural maintenance of the landscape, the archive office has the task of providing technical and technical advice and support to the archives of non-state organizations, i.e. the municipal, church and private archives in Westphalia-Lippe.

Since 1958, the head of the archives office has been ex officio executive archive director of the aristocratic archives association.

Every two years the archive office takes part in the day of the archives and presents itself to the interested public together with the other archives located in Münster.

history
Until 1998, the then Westphalian Archives Office was located at Warendorfer Strasse 24 in Münster, near the State House . Since moving to Jahnstrasse, the archive office has had more storage and work space, which is to be expanded by an extension in the coming years.
In 2006, as part of the standardization of the designation of institutions of the Regional Association of Westphalia-Lippe, the previous name "Westphalian Archive Office" was changed to "LWL Archive Office for Westphalia". In the same year, the State Initiative for Conservation of Substance (LISE) was established in office, which is limited to at least December 31, 2019.
After the collapse of Cologne's city archive in 2009, the facility's restoration workshop took over and freeze- dried documents from the accident site as part of the administrative assistance . Together with other helping archives, the exhibition “Westphalia helps Cologne” was shown in the Münster City Museum .
