The Stadt- und Stiftsarchiv Aschaffenburg

The Stadt- und Stiftsarchiv Aschaffenburg (Aschaffenburg City and Monastery Archive) is one of the oldest and largest historical archives in Lower Franconia. As a result of its holdings and Aschaffenburg's historical role, the archive also plays an important role beyond the region. The archive holdings are supplemented by an extensive regional library as a specialised scientific library. The archive and library are open to anyone who is interested – on site in the Schönborner Hof, but also increasingly digitally.

The city and monastery archive's holdings, focal points and remits:

  • Monastery archive (centralised historic stock; permanent loans from the Free State of Bavaria to the city of Aschaffenburg)
  • Aschaffenburg city archive with collections
  • Newspaper and photo stocks

  • Consulting and family research
  • Exhibitions, events and publications
