Munich City Archive, Municipal archive and monument in Munich, Germany

The Munich City Archive holds extensive collections of municipal records, historical documents, photographs, and official books in a dedicated building at Winzererstraße 68.

The archive traces its origins to 1777 when the city council appointed an archivist to manage documents within the town hall, leading to its formal establishment in 1914.

The archive maintains a substantial Judaica collection, city chronicles, multimedia materials, and private estates that document Munich's social development through centuries.

Researchers and visitors can access the archive's reading room to examine documents, with digital resources available through an online catalog system.

The facility occupies a purpose-built structure designed by Hans Grässel and Hans-Busso von Busse, incorporating specific architectural features for document preservation.
