About the collection 

Every year, thousands of books, films, drawings, photographs, documents and other archival items flood into The Utrecht Archives. They come from governments, such as the municipality and province of Utrecht, but also from companies, sports clubs, associations, institutions and individuals. The Utrecht Archives keep a total of over 33 kilometers of archives. You can get a taste of the collection in the exhibition, view the collection in the reading room and at www.hetutrechtsarchief.nl.
