Culture and education
City archive
As the "memory of the city", the city archive has the task of preserving Bad Homburg's historical heritage, making it accessible and communicating it comprehensively.

The town archive is located in the Villa Wertheimber in Gustavsgarten. There, 20 workstations are available in a modern reading room for anyone interested in the past and present of the spa town to consult documents and literature.

The town archive is thus a hub between the past and the future, where research into the town's history, the concerns of the town administration and historical education come together and are interwoven.

Opening hours: Tuesday 9 am - 4 pm; Wednesday 2 pm - 7 pm; Friday 9 am - 12 pm.

We recommend that you register your visit to the reading room in advance by telephone or e-mail so that we can provide you with initial documents relating to your question.

You are also welcome to visit our Facebook page with current articles from the city archive.

Newly published!
