Archiwum Państwowe w Bydgoszczy

The State Archives of Bydgoszcz is a repository of regional documents, manuscripts, and administrative records from the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship spread across multiple levels. The collections include materials spanning from earlier periods to recent times, organized for research access.

Founded in 1906, it joined the Polish state archives network in 1924, establishing its role in documenting regional history. This integration strengthened the management and preservation of collections during the major changes the region experienced.

The archive holds documents in Polish, German, and Russian, showing how different cultures shaped the region over time. Walking through its collections, you encounter the voices and records of people from different backgrounds who lived here across many generations.

You can access the reading room on weekdays, but scheduling ahead is necessary before your visit. Plan your research time accordingly since hours are limited and document consultations need to be arranged in advance.

The collection includes records of salt production from the 1700s, offering a window into an economic activity that shaped the region. These particular documents reveal how a traditional craft influenced local development for many years.
