Stadtarchiv Schwäbisch Gmünd, Municipal archive in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany.

The Stadtarchiv houses over 3000 linear meters of documents, including official records, photographs, newspapers, and private collections from Schwäbisch Gmünd's history.

The archive's first mention dates to 1337 with city clerk Berthold, though it contains documents from the late 13th century.

The archive building, constructed in 1578 as a Latin school, preserves essential documents about the city's development and community life through centuries.

Visitors can access the archive Tuesday and Wednesday from 9 AM to 12 PM and Thursday from 2 PM to 6 PM with advance appointment.

Between 1943 and 1947, the entire archive collection was stored in a salt mine for protection during World War II.
