Stadtarchiv Mettmann
The Mettmann city archive is the memory of the city of Mettmann and the former Hubbelrath administrative district. We continuously take on documents from the city administration that are of lasting value for the city's history and historical research. In addition to official documents, estates, newspapers, photographs and other contemporary documents are also collected, organised, archived and analysed. The archive has around 900 linear metres of archive material, which is accessible to all citizens. After all, in addition to archiving, our tasks also include making the archive material available to the public.
We are always happy to accept archival documents, photographs and postcards relating to Mettmann from private collections to expand our archive.

The holdings of the archive refer to diverse groups of documents that have been combined into a unit according to logically comprehensible aspects such as their origin, their context of origin and their factual content according to formal characteristics. These include, for example, the files of city and district administrations, but also collections of photographs and newspaper clippings. Almost all documents in an archive are assigned to collections that structure the archive. The holdings of the archive are available online in this portal and can be researched
