Amsterdam City Archives

Stadsarchief Amsterdam

The vast majority of documents preserved by Amsterdam City Archives are listed in the Inventories. These brief descriptions can be searched in their entirety.

In the case of many inventories, the content can also be examined online, in the form of scans.

If you are not yet able to see the content of a particular inventory, you can ask us to scan the document for you. In this way, together we can open up all 32 kilometres of Amsterdam’s archives.

Beside the inventories, you will find Indexes, which provide access to certain sections of the archives that have already been fully scanned. The information contained here is primarily genealogical.

The English version of the Archives Database contains an English translation of the explanatory description. It does not contain a translation of the inventories or of the actual archival documents.
