Genealogy Alsace

True guardians of Strasbourg's past, the Archives de la Ville de Strasbourg et de l'Eurométropole de Strasbourg house a historical treasure trove, with over 18 km of documents dating from the 12th century to the present day. Located opposite the Presqu'île Malraux, they open their doors to the public with exhibitions, conferences and tours to help visitors discover their exceptional holdings. Behind-the-scenes tours are also available, subject to prior booking. It's an unmissable event for history buffs, amateurs and researchers alike, who will be able to carry out genealogical research thanks to the many online resources available.

In their new building to the silkscreen windows, between Esplanade and Neudorf, next to the Ship, the Archive Archives preserves centuries of history of the communes and parishes of the department. Eleven centuries of public, private, associative, family or professional documents, eleven centuries of civil registers, notarial acts, decrees and minutes of municipal councils, which are based on 30 km of linear lines, Strasbourg-Haguenau by car! To satisfy the curiosity of researchers and genealogists!

The most: access to the reading room, archivists and documents is free upon presentation of an ID. The least: unfortunately, exhibitions are rare. Only solution: the website where parents and teachers will easily find what to teach children.
